Tailgate Strap - part number 08L46-T5A-610
« on: January 31, 2023, 05:59:23 PM »
Does anyone have one of these accessories on their car?

I'm curious about how they're fitted as my local dealer can't say as they have no-one who's put one on yet.  I'm assuming a hole is made in the trim panel and the strap is screwed into a captive nut through it.

I'm very curious why you would want to mount such a strap if you already have a tailgate handle...
I understand that your local dealer can't tell you. I even wonder if you could find a dealer somewhere that can...

...I got one fitted at purchase. It's a lot more convenient than the grab handle in the tailgate.

There's nothing wrong with curiosity!   The simple answer is that not all my passengers are as tall as I am, and the strap would make it easier to reach up to pull the tailgate down for closure.

@tfw7 & @shufty

Thank you for your very helpful replies and photographs.   It's slightly more involved than I was anticipating!

I considered getting one when I ordered as I am on the short side and the tailgate4 is a) heavy and b) a bit of a stretch.
Decided against it though and am managing.
