Hood locks and cable release

I'm looking at getting a Lokar hood release kit and removing the handle under the hood so it can only be opened from inside the cab. Has anyone here used one of these kits or built another type of cable hood release? If so what do you think of it?

I'm also open to any other ideas for locking my hood, something more creative than a chain and padlock preferably. The more $$ I stick under the hood the more paranoid I am about it disappearing.

Ivan

I have occasionally seen the entire stock, in the cab, hood release assembly for sale on ebay. You might check there.
