Tailgate reflector strip

I own a 91- F350 crew cab 4x4. The reflector strip on the tailgate broke off in one piece, I checked with a local ford dealer, and they wanted 290.00 for the assembly........B.S. I spent 3.00, and bought 5 stainless steel screws and 5 rubber grommets and centered the strip with tape, drilled each hole and threaded in the screws....no rattle, or big expense, and looks a lot better than without the strip.
