Built for the Tailgate Theft Protector for 2000-2006 Toyota Tundra, this Dealers of Cali Raised LED component delivers rugged durability, precise fitment, and trail-ready performance. Engineered for serious off-road use while maintaining everyday drivability.
The Cali Raised LED Tailgate Theft Protector for 2000-2006 Toyota Tundra is a laser-cut 304 stainless steel guard that covers the tailgate hinge and locks in place with a tamper-resistant security bolt, so your tailgate can't be lifted off in seconds. It bolts on in about 5-10 minutes using a factory bolt hole, with no drilling, and the tailgate opens and closes exactly as before.
Tailgate Security for 2000-2006 Toyota Tundra
Tailgate theft is fast, quiet and often leaves no visible damage. Like most pickup tailgates, the factory tailgate on a 2000-2006 Tundra lifts off its hinges once it's lowered to the right angle. This protector shields the hinge area and blocks the removal point thieves use, adding a real physical deterrent without changing how your tailgate works.
Laser-Cut 304 Stainless Steel Theft Protection
Laser-cut from 304 stainless steel and left uncoated on purpose, this tailgate theft protector is built for long-term durability and corrosion resistance, with no paint or powder coat to chip, scratch or peel. The single tamper-resistant security bolt can only be removed with the matching security bit, which helps stop quick removal attempts without adding bulk.
Fits Every 1st Gen Tundra
Designed for the first-generation Toyota Tundra, it fits all 2000-2006 models, including Regular Cab, Access Cab and Double Cab trucks in every trim. Each kit includes the protector bracket, one security bolt and the matching security bit. Designed and shipped from Fort Worth, Texas.
