Re: blazer band
Its easy.
Flip the tailgate handle. Use the pickup inner piece, gently pry pickup band from the inside part and the same to the blazer band. The blazer band requires a slight trim on the ends to line up nice. I did mine in an hour or so... Posted via Mobile Device

Re: blazer band
Honestly the time it would take its easier to get a blazer one and trim the sides so it fits.

Re: blazer band
If your talking about the small band that fits in side the indent,You could cut up two and fill in the hole where the handle was.But they don't remake those small tailgate brands so if yours is in good shape you can sell it easy i bet.

Re: blazer band
And you dont have to shave the handle at all, just relocate it. I think it looks real good. I picked up my at a junk yard for 15 bucks, just to see if itll look good. I plan on buying a rep. One later
