Tailgate latch relocate?
Has anyone relocated their tailgate latch to the inside? If so how hard is it? Can the stock latch just be moved to the inside or a new one made?

Ive seen the kits but they are around $90 which seems like alot to pay for a handle imo but if i cant find one cheaper then i will bite the bullet and shell out the $ because i think this mod is very cool.

I have one. I bought it from Sir Micheal's I believe. I have already welded up my tailgate with a new skin. I will install the handle relocator this weekend so I will let you know when I finish and try to take some pictures.

Someone posted on the other forum that aim sells them for $37. Ive never heard anything good about aim but i would think its pretty hard to screw up something like this.

The one on my truck came from Brothers but the reciept showed it cost the last owner about $100 bucks but that was probably at least 4 years ago. He moved the trim panel up ver the outer opening so it has a unique look.
