Hey folks,

Is anyone with an electric tailgate and the OEM or similar bed extender able to share details/pics on how the extender is secured while extended with the tailgate down?

Details:
I had the OEM bed extender on my G2 Taco. I would manually yank the tailgate handle to open the tailgate's side latches when disconnecting the bed extender's retaining straps - they could be push/clicked in when connecting. I picked up a LOX ROX matte black bed extender for my G4 primarily because it looks very similar to the OEM, uses the OEM punched drill guides [no measuring/marking necessary for mounting brackets] and costs a fraction as much. I can't figure out how to actuate the tailgate latches short of opening/closing the tailgate. I can obviously secure it elsewhere but am still very curious how this is done with the OEM Toyota kit..

Thx,
J
