Fitting a tailgate mk7

[KING OF ENGLAND]

Just no had the time to go to work craig

To much to do on the van

You know you and rumble are just the same you both do every thing you can
to a van to make it look great and then say you work all day out of them impossible

[Owlie]

Glad to see its coming along nicely Looks much better on your van than in the back of mine

[Brains_transit]

Smoothing the lock blank would make it look better if possible

[Punto443]

Nope, it's already in the paint shop

[Punto443]

Just the top hinge mounts to decide on what happening with?

[Brains_transit]

Lights that are facing each other to light up under the tailgate would be good or another 2 brake lights

[Honey monster]

Led strobe lights would cover them holes. Or perhaps you can get some grab handles to go there like the BT vans to help get up to the roof rack.

[Mfr]

Nice work Bud! very nice indeed.

Can't you make two small square plates paint them blue and fix them over the old mounting points you could stick them on with panel adhesive the automotive type.

I've ordered a couple of coloured reflector, so I'll see how they look?

I thought about some kind of clamp for side screens off the tailgate too, but I've got a compile of bits of gaffs on them the now

[Punto443]

Update, the reflectors were shite

And I've found two bad points to having the tailgate.......
1. Forklift can't get in the back
2. The no. Plate recess holds a bout a gallon of water when it's raining, which hits you when you shut it!

Learned quick to stand to the side!
