Rear Lift Gate handle/garnish replacement pieces....

Good morning,

Has anyone replaced a warped rear lift gate garnish, the plastic handle with the Toyota Logo and 4Runner lettering?

Do you happen to know if the new garnish came with the rubber seal or do I need to order that separately?

Seal I am referring to for reference:

Thank you,

I’ve replaced two liftgate garnishes and no, they don’t come with the seal

 

Watching. I’m going to have to do this too fairly soon on my wife’s 22 Limited - car wash cracked the piece and it’s constantly coming loose and has to be popped back on.

 

Thank you very much.

 

PSA - for anyone thinking about replacing their tailgate garnish, do yourself a favor and check out the sticky in the 5th Gen section "Plastic trim rubbing off paint" - there's a discussion in there regarding a way to use Scotch 2228 tape to form a better gasket for the garnish than what comes with it from the factory. TBH, I have not done this since I see no rubbing on my rear garnish, but it seems like a great idea if you already have the garnish off. There are also some videos and tips for removing the garnish in that thread.

And this is the post detailing the gasket "fix" using Scotch 2228 tape:
