Review: 2005 GMC Sierra Denali - Works as expected and would expect for the GM 1500 series platform. Green goes to passenger side handle rod, red to driver’s side. Durability? No idea. Come in a resealable plastic bag, which in my case had been previously opened by ripping the middle of the bag. All 5 pair were there but it meant some were loose in shipping envelope and some spilled onto the floor. Second time I’ve had to make this easy repair in 20 years of ownership. This time caused by someone who loaded bags of soil amendment using the handle to lift and shut the tailgate. Symptom is you go to lower the tailgate and the handle doesn’t unlatch the tailgate so it can’t be lowered. Use a 13 mm socket to remove 3 bolts on inside of tailgate (the side facing the cab). In this fix I assume at this point I’ll have to replace the plastic bezel which surrounds the handle and so to expedite I just break one or both of the top bezel clips so I can move on. $10’ish item, order at same time. If you HAVE to lower the tailgate to unload something in the meantime, use that 13 mm socket to remove the bolts, remove the bezel, and pull on each rod toward the center and the tailgate will unlatch. Pliers help. Pictures include the old green broken one. The short part of the L shaped clip which inserts like a cone and locks into the handle release mechanism is what breaks. It’s missing, probably at bottom of tailgate. The red one, 20 years old, broke while fixing the green one. Tips: 4 reasons you may count on replacing the bezel and ordering at same time. 1) you break one of the probably brittle by now plastic clips because they don’t bend well and the double sided tape isn’t letting you shift the bezel to gain an advantage. 2) you WILL end up tearing the foam of the double sided tape of the bezel because the adhesive strip will be stuck well to the paint. No issue if your bezel is black except it’s a matte black with a texture not onyx black from factory. If yours is color matched you’ll have to paint or live with black. The new one comes with tape. Ordered mine on desertcart from that US company which manufactures so much of the replacement parts for this kind of truck. 3) it’s just faster to break away the old one and start fresh. In my case since I replaced the original bezel with non-OEM during the previous fix I didn’t care. 4) don’t connect both sides with mechanism hanging out of tailgate hole. Connect one, turn handle and mechanism 90 degrees, finagle it in and realign horizontally once in, then connect the other one. Bolt on. Install bezel.
Review: Great fit. Easy install - Perfect fit and good price. Used for tailgate on 2009 silverado 1500 extended cab.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great fit. Easy install
*by H***O on October 25, 2025*

Perfect fit and good price. Used for tailgate on 2009 silverado 1500 extended cab.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These fit the 2001 Toyota Tundra
*by D***H on October 1, 2024*

Although they do not advertise as being the correct replacement for a 2001 Toyota Tundra, they do fit and they work great! I had to pry open the clip a little wider to accept the rod. The diameter must be slightly larger for the Toyota rod. I shopped around and tried several different clips but none of them fit correctly. Toyota only sells the entire latch mechanism with the rods and clip for over $200. This is a much better option.
