Tailgate stolen

Recently got my tailgate stolen 2015 tacoma double cab. Got an aftermarket tailgate and tailgate panel. I cant find the part numbers to the proper screws needed for it. Was hoping for some help for part numbers for them or alternatives to use.

My go-to site that has the parts diagrams is down.

 

Thank you so much!!!

 

Might be time for some tailgate anti theft devices

Get one of these.

 

These are better. I've been running two like this forever. Reason is, they cannot be removed with a screwdriver. I keep the plastic key in the glove box. I once had somebody try to steal my tailgate. When they saw what I had they gave up.

 

It was probably just MDHoover trying to drum up business for his antitheft plates.

 

What general location were you when it was stolen?


(Betting somewhere in a big city in CA.... and this is coming from a CA resident)

 

This is great, coupled with the washer mod on both sides so the cables cannot be removed. I have both in place. It would take time and tools to take my tailgate.

 

BTO,

Where does one order that clamp with the Blue plastic key?

 

Just get yourself a locking tailgate lock, they make several anti theft deterrents for our trucks.

 

Re: the washers: Can you provide the specs (size) on those washers? I think I know, but I want to get it right the first time. I installed the key hose clamp a while back and would like to add the cable fix. Thank you.

Thank you! I'll be working on this tomorrow if it doesn't snow again.

This isn't the exact one I bought, but it is the exact size that worked perfectly for me.
