Tested for perfect fit on "Toyota 2020 Highlander Hybrid" may work on other models at your own risk. Confirmed does NOT fit on Toyota 4 Runner.

When you have ladders/plywood/pipes/whatever hanging out your tailgate and it won't close, it beeps all the way home, and that's annoying!

Solve that annoyance by inserting this plug into the locking mechanism, the locking motor will grab it, and then it won't beep. Simply press the tailgate close button, remove this plug, and the linear actuators will close the tailgate as normal.

Cable tie holes at the top center allow for attaching a red safety flag, which your supposed to use when something is sticking out the back of your vehicle.

Other cable tie holes allow for keeping a bungee cord across the top, which when connected to hooks in the cargo area can be used to keep the tailgate down.

Printed with PETG so it won't warp when left in a hot car or direct sunlight.

Note that any use and circumvention of car safety controls are done so at your own risk. Magnets embedded in this plug, should hold it to the locking mechanism even if the open/close button is pressed, which should avoiding the plug falling out and onto the road while driving.
