it onto the Pop and Lock handle ensuring it is seated on the 3 plastic posts.

Instructions
Step 1: Remove the T35 torx (star) screws from the inside of the tailgate that hold the
access panel in place. Remove the access panel by lifting the bottom and sliding it out of the
top plastic trim piece. You may have to lift the trim piece up away from the tailgate in the
middle to allow the access panel down to slide down.
Step 3: The left (DRIVER SIDE) latch rod needs to be flipped end for end in
order to allow for the lock assembly. Do this by popping the latch rod out of
the black clip, which is located at the center of the rod. Push the rod towards
the bottom of the tailgate to pop it out of clip. Next remove the rod from the
driver side latch. This latch clip is towards the driver side of the tailgate under
the sheet metal inside the tailgate. This clip is the same type as the ones on
the handle. Turn the clip off of the rod and lift the rod out of the clip. Flip the
rod end for end so the bent part of the rod is closer to the driver side latch.
The rod will run along the top part of the tailgate as shown in the picture.
Insert the rod end into the latch clip and snap the clip onto the rod. (The rod
will not get clipped back into the center black clip)
Step 2: Remove the latch rods from the plastic clips. Do this by turning the clips
off of the rod and lift the rod out of the clip.
-If truck has a back up camera, remove the two 10mm bolts that hold the camera
and holder onto the OEM handle.
-Remove the two 10mm bolts that hold the handle into the tailgate. Hold the
handle in place to prevent the handle from falling out.
-Push the two plastic tabs of the gasket in towards the handle past the sheet metal
and remove the handle from the tailgate.
Step 6: If the lock operates
properly, reinstall the access panel.
