Power Tailgate locks

Any suggestions or recomendations for a power tailgate lock??? I have a 2008 FSX 4X4 Supercrew. Just added a new Clifford remote start/alarm and want to combine a tailgate power lock.

IEW and DEI both should still make or sell a "kit" for our F150s still.



I have a few "generic" actuators here on my shelf that was going to use to remotely automate my unlocking and Opening functions- just haven't gotten around to it.

That maybe a another cost alternative idea if your comfortable with some light fab work.

There's a thread around here somewhere about putting in an actuator for the tailgate. Did it on mine, one of the best and easiest mods to do.
