clip for suburban tailgate rod

[65chevysub]

Does anyone re-make or carry the clip that holds the rod to the lock assembly for 60-66, and possibly later model Suburbans? I lost mine, thinking it fell down into the gate, but when I removed the gate and turned it over, it wasn't there--Dang Gremlins. Also, I'm looking for the panel that goes over the license light access hole. Don't care what it looks like as long as it's straight, and I can repaint it.

Thanks

Found an aftermarket clip for the rod. Now I'll probably find the missing panel I need
