Your truck or pickup's tailgate handle is usually integrated into the tailgate latch assembly. This handle allows you to open and close the tailgate, making it easier for you to load and unload cargo into the truck or pickup's bed. But when rust begins to corrode the steel supports connecting the handle to the latch, the handle may break, leaving you with a useless truck bed. Installing a new tailgate handle will take you about 30 minutes

Smooth = Paint to Match
This replacement automotive Mirror can be painted by purchaser if desired, or installed as is. If you choose to paint it yourself, you can find the paint code (generally) located on a white sticker on the inside of the Driver door (could also be located in your glove box). Lightly wet sand with 400 grit sandpaper. Approximately 4-5 light coats of paint will result in a nice finish. Along with our aftermarket Mirrors, the painting process is also a great cost savings compared to your local dealer.
