Unhappy Tailgate Hardware

I recently purchased a new tailgate to replace the vented trailer towing gate. Alas it comes sans latches cables and handle assemblies. Does Dodge still stock these or is there a third party that supplies them? I have found nothing yet.

You will probably end up robbing what you need off an otherwise shot tail-gate, of which there are plenty around, unless the high price of scrap hasn't made them disappear.

I think you can still get most of the stuff from Dodge, but like Bearkiller said you will be way ahead money-wise if you just gut a junkyard tailgate. If you want the part numbers I'll look 'em up for you.
