how is it attached to the tail gate ?

It mounts under your tailgate, above the bumper on the flat part of the truck. It goes on with a double sided adhesive (like what your vehicle decals are stuck on with. Hope this helps :-)

It goes under the tailgate between the bumper. You will have enough to hold it on.

Yes, everything except the rubber gasket for the swivel on the right side hinge pin. You must use the existing rubber gasket. All in all, very simple and easy to install. Would recommend this tail gate to every one.

Each panel has latches on the side that fit into the side rails. Once it's fully closed, with the tail gate up, it's locked into place.

The unit has a strap that can attach to the latch mechanism on the back of the vehicle. With our smaller dog there isn't much need to secure it though. The top of the ramp has a little bit of a lip to it.

It did not come with a locking mechanism, but if you lock the tailgate it is secure.

It bolts down to the rear rack with U bolts. Can be removed, but not exactly easily.

When the top is in place, one can lock the tailgate and the securing latches are not available to unlock. That makes it secure.

The tether attaches to the Door. If you open the door and look at the lower right corner there is a round "Bump" with a hole in it. The tether just snaps in to the hole.

It clips to your truck bed. I have a locking tailgate and that helps keep the bed secure. It is not perfect but you would have to work at it to break in with your tailgate locked.

Yes and it is very easy to install. There is however nothing like a genuine part when it comes to performance! You have to treat it gently when using. This past week I have been using my tailgate A LOT. There were a few times that I was unable to open the gate at all and it took a lot of cajoling and patience to get it to work. For the price it is a quick fix but if you rely on opening and closing a lot, I would go for something more heavy duty. I will need to replace this again and probably soon. I will try a different one second time around.

This is mounted in the tailgate handle. The instructions come with a template for mounting.

I had a similar one on my 2002 Silverado for almost 10 years until it broke last year. No one ever messed with it. Keeps stuff out of sight, out of mind. I installed a different tailgate latch that included a lock as well.

Chain link, frame, metal ties, gate latch, gate hinges but only on the gate not on the pole it is being attached to, and some turnbuckles with cable. I found it cheaper at home depot.

It is attached to a metal bedframe. A friend did it for me. The quality is good and it looks nice. SW

It is permanently mounted to the front of the bed. Normally you keep it covering the bed. When you want to roll it up, you start from the tailgate and simply roll it like a newspaper from the back to the front. There is a little strap in the front that you wrap around it to secure it right at the truck bed / cab intersection. The whole process takes about 30 seconds. To cover the bed again, you simply undo the strap, and unroll it. A piece clicks at the tailgate and you run down both sides to secure the Velcro. The securing the end takes a few minutes to figure it out, but once you do it only takes about 30 seconds every subsequent time. It is a very easy process.

Gate. I put these on the tailgate of my SAAB. Easy to install and works well.

I recall there just being 3 bolts on the inside of the tailgate, which hold the bezel in place. Once these are removed, the bezel is pulled out and the plastic retainers, which fasten the latching arms to the bezel are pivoted to remove the bezel completely. The entire process took 10 minutes and the bezel was made by GM, so it fit perfectly.
