The response that is simple and fast is a Small lock with a Locking Cam attached to the trunk. They come in many different sizes, shapes and configurations and costs from about $.80 for a tiny mechanical camera lock to $150.00 for a digital version. That is a lot of advice in a couple of sentences. Allow me to clarify this. The Locking Cam on the back of the lock is the locking mechanism and generally made from steel that offset will be directly or have a hook. It can have some layout that when the key is inserted into the lock and turned the camera will lock or unlock anything it is mounted on.
