A blanket slipped into my rear tailgate latch and broke the plastic latching mechanism. I am removing the latch assembly and have only the rear mounting clip to go. Anybody been into this already or have the procedure? I don’t want to break a clip so close to being back on the road.

After inspecting with a mirror closely, it was a plug that just needed to be pried out. I used non-marring pry tools.

Was a guy that did a YouTube on this for a wrap I think.
