Yeah, I was the one that figured out they didnt work with 2010 and up. Ordered them a few months ago, got around to install them, and they were sunken in and the plates that go on the side of the framerail didnt line up with the other holes so you could only get 1 of the 2 bolts in.. So they been working on them. heres the picture i sent them..so i cant wait till they get done with the new plates so i can use them!



I will post up a picture of what the back of my Jeep looks like tomorrow.

SaginawMike. I did the same. He probably is out of stock, but sounds like most nut/bolt places like Ace have them too. Gotta find my tailgate ones. Put them up somewhere for when I finally removed the spare from the gate. That time has come. Now, where did I put them?

One a separate note where are u guys all getting the ass plugs to fill in the factory holes for the brakelight and tire standoffs. I checked home depot and rona but had no luck.
Go check a body shop or the dealer cause I think these came with the refurbished tailgate.

for your 3rd brake lite wire. i'd be pissed if they did that to mine, after all , all it does is unplug.
I know they couldve found me a plug... And when I told them to keep the third brake light because I would like to relocate the plate some day they decided that hey well just cut it off

Note to everyone: Dont let the body shop work on putting mods on your Jeep... even if you figured out a way for insurance to pay for aftermarket bumpers after an accident.

I got a phone call asking what they wanted me to do with the giant hole in the tailgate? I said what hole? They told me the whole where the vent goes. So of course I tell them put the vent back in? I mean seriously?

We should have the updated rear D-Ring mounts that will fit all models out to you in couple of days. Thanks for your patience.
