Brackets for tailgate cover

I took off my tailgate cover (you know, the aluminum deal , seems to broke more often than not)to see why it sags. It turns out that all the plastic brackets are broken in one fashion or another. Anyone know where I can find these without buying the whole tailgate cover?

Mine has done the same thing, check out LMC truck pg 26 in the Ford 2006 winter edition for possible parts.

Re: Brackets for tailgate cover

You can order them from the Ford Dealer still. I think they're under $10 each...
