Note - the two standoffs that the brace cables attach to do not need to be removed. The eye on the cable fits over a flange on the standoff that prevents it from vibrating off or coming off accidentally. there is a spring retainer finger that prevents the eye from being positioned so it can be disconnected. this finger can be gently lifted with a small screwdriver so it clears the end of the standoff, and then if the tailgate is lifted slightly, the eye can be positioned so the cutout can be lifted off the flange on the standoff on each end.
Thanks for the video. It's very helpful. How do you remove the black bezel from the tail gate? The black plastic piece that runs along the top of the gate covers the bezel. I can't find any way on the inside of the gate to release the bezel or the plastic piece on top of the tail gate. Is the plastic piece glued to the top of the tail gate? If it is, how do I remove it?
Hello Nissan Dude. Thanks for a great tutorial. Perfect. I have the exact same problem. I was trying to link to the replacement product you used, but could not find it. The video says Amazon, but I didn’t see see it. Can you please let me know where the part came from. I need one. Thank you. DM

Thank you for the step by step instructions. I feel this is a fairly common issue with this model and I appreciate you walking us through the repair.
Yeah seems to be a common point of failure.
This is great! Straight forward and easy to follow. I’ll update ya when I get my lock and tailgate latch installed.
Thank you for clearly showing me how to do this!!!!!
I have the same problem with my tailgate on my truck . Nice video it was helpful for me to see what takes. Now I should probably fix it!
It is an easy fix.
Thanks for the lesson.
You're welcome
Great video, Thank you. (allow me to mention no need to remove bolts for tailgate hang cables. They each have tabs to take them off of the bolts)

Thanks for the tip!
What did you type in to search for that package? I need one too , I just don’t know what to search?
Thanks for the vid but how did you reaffix the molding on the top? Did you have to add more glue?
Yes, you would need some glue.
Yes I used a polyurethane adhesive.

I cut at it. then i'll have to glue the old one on the new tailgate.

Thanks for this video. Amazon claims that the part won’t fit a 2013 Frontier. Does anyone have confirmation that it will?

I’ve looked on ebay and amazon for the part you have. Can’t find at either location. Can you help me locate it?
The link is in the video description.
Curious as to why you need to remove the tailgate. Couldn't you just replace the handle with the tailgate in the down position?
Guess you could, I just found it easier to film and manipulate.
Same thing happened to mine. The piece fell in. I opened it up, and I cannot seem to find the piece.😂
Do you have to get keys made for this new lock/ latch or will your keys fit ?
You need to use the same lock.
Were did you buy your parts
