I replaced the 3 pieces that go over the tailgate release with the one-piece lower trim since I relocated the release handle to the inside. I thought the 3 piece trim wouldn't look right without the handle in the middle, since it arches up over the release handle.

I followed instructions (found on this forum) on how to use the Mar-K release kit and keep the indented tailgate so it looks original.

I thought I was being clever. And, if you're looking for the trim, guess it worked?? It looks right. Still a little tall on the driver side, but I'm having too much fun driving it right now to do any more trimming. Will work on it more this fall....

Thanks!!
