Re: rear gate latch
No it's not under the license plate. I don't have a pic handy, but it is a push button up at the top center, just below the handle on the hatch.

Re: rear gate latch
So that controls all three latches on the gate, so why does the license plate
Need to lift up? Sorry for the dumb questions but I didn't have the Pleas sure of owning one previously

Re: rear gate latch
Lic plate lifts up when hauling long items with the gate down, lic plate will show with the gate down. Nifty !
