Anyone know where to get this grommet?
Ok guys I know what I'm looking for but I was wondering if you all could point me in the right direction. Somehow or another the rubber grommet that's on the bottom passenger side that looks like a C mysteriously fell out of place and is now letting my tailgate at the bottom when shut flop back and forth just a hair. The piece I'm talking about is rubber and the tailgate can be lifted up from that side first I presume. I hope you guys can help me out because I hate hearing my tailgate rattle when I hit a bump in the road because of this. 
Also, my truck is a 91 F-150 and my father's tailgate has the same identical piece except his grommet is still in place and his is a 95 F-150.

Yep - know exactly what you're talking about - now if I can only remember where I got my replacements. Thinking it was on online site - may check out rockauto.com, lmctruck.com, or maybe JCWhitney.
Another thought is to check the HELP products display at the AutoZone or local parts store - they have unusual trim items and shtuff - maybe have some luck there?
If nothing else, use the five-finger discount on your dad's truck :-)~
Oh - and welcome to the site!

Thanks for your reply. I was thinking either hitting up a junkyard or going to a Ford dealer but I do suppose some magazines may carry the little grommet thing. If you happen to think of where you got your please let me know.
