STEP 1 - Lower tailgate and remove the bottom center bolt on the
inside (backside) of the tailgate. Gently shut the tailgate. Remove the
plastic bezel by carefully prying with a flat head screw driver (it is
recommended to use a rag or cardboard between the tailgate and
screwdriver so not scratch the paint) in the bottom center to pop the
bezel clip out of the tailgate. Next gently pry at the upper two corners
to release the bezel clips (again it is recommended to use a
rag or cardboard between the tailgate and screwdriver so not
scratch the paint). The tailgate should look like the picture
shown.
STEP 2 - Remove the latch rods from the latch rod clips. Do this by turning the clip
off the rod and pulling the rod out of the clip. Remove the other two bolts on the
inside (backside) of the tailgate. Hold the handle at the same time to keep it from
moving as you remove the bolts. Next remove the OEM handle from the tailgate.
Remove the bolt that holds the Pop N Lock components together (do not discard the
bolt and washer as they will be used) and install the handle assemble in the tail-
gate in the same place as the OEM handle. Reinstall the two upper bolts. The
bolts go through the inside (backside) of the tailgate and thread into the handle
assembly. Do not tighten yet, leave a little loose to allow the handle to move.

STEP 3 - Insert the latch rods into the rod clips and snap the clips onto the rods. Install
the Pop N Lock lock bezel. Make sure the lock arm aligns to go into the square open-
ing on the handle assemble. Snap the bezel clips into the tailgate. Place the bolt and
washer (was removed to separate the components) into the bottom center hole on the
inside (backside) of the tailgate. This will thread into the back side of
the bezel. You may have to slightly move the handle bezel assemblies
to get the bolt to start to thread. Once it starts to thread tighten bolt.
Then tighten the other two bolts.
