Thanks TECH this is a common problem and I sure know I need to fix mine before I sell it.

I used a cheaper fix that I read from a post somewhere else. Go to your local big-box home center and head over to the hardware section. Ask the counter person to help you find rubber grommets. I can't remember the size I used...1/4" hole size I think. Get as many grommets as you need to repair the broken tailgate clip holes. Squeeze the grommets into the holes on your tailgate. Use your existing clips and gently, but firmly, press the clips so that they are held in place by the grommets. The grommets should hold the clips and stay put in the tailgate hole. Problem solved for less than $3! (worked for me!)

The links in the original post are all bad. Anyone have an update on the kit?
