tailgate...fully shut?

Post by **kevtherev** » 05 Apr 2007, 16:46

I have often wondered if the tailgate has a double lock action. You know like a car door?

so the question is is there a safety catch on it?

mine just shuts and no secondary lock but I've always thought it could go in a bit further.

As i found out when fitting the remote solenoid to the bootlid there are indeedy 2 stages in the locking mech. IF you can loosen the base part of the lock just slide it out a bit to make it double lock.

Ok it's fixed I just had to push the gate in another 3/4 inch and it went 'click'

no draught now and a bit quieter
