It's gotta be better than having a retractable pole in your tailgate fail while you're pulling yourself up, then tumbling backwards onto your head hehe.

No retractable pole, I keep an 11 foot pole to touch things I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole.

Any suggestions on where to get my tailgate handle camera from?

I found this company, Emerald Integrations, but wanted to see if anyone else has worked with them before, just for peace of mind.

If there's anywhere else people recommend, let me know.

I got a 2013 so thank god, I would be looking at the option which is $259 since their option for 09-12 is $494.

I'm gonna wait to hear from you guys before pulling the trigger.

Thanks guys
