245 Tailgate Wiring - ALTERNATIVE Approach 200

posted by  someone claiming to be D-SD on  Thu Feb 28 11:52 CST 2013 [RELATED]

Time to replace the wiring harnesses for the tailgate AGAIN :( Lots of posts in the archives for the standard doomed to fail again replacement. I see reference to alternative approaches by-passing the hinge altogether, using coiled wire, or rubber bellows, grommets through the headliner. However, I can't find any detailed info, "how to's", photos, etc.

      The two links you got are just two variations on the same theme.

      I know this because I'm the author.

      Glad to see this is still of value some 10+ years later.
