Tailgate Rattle Fixes

Sorry for the late reply post. I don't have a video, but a few pictures.

1) Electrical tape on the upper lift gate latches, (as shown in the you tube video).
2) Upper lift gate bumpers turned out. These were flush to slightly inside the trim work before I started. Quite frankly, I think this made the most difference. When I open the lift gate now, it "pops" when the latch releases.
3) As an added measure, I added electrical tape to the latch loops of the lower tailgate. Picture is with the gate down. Tape is on the loop member that the latching mechanism will catch. Really, the only loop member you can reach. :-)
