Tacoma Tailgate Troubles: No Manual Lever?

Looking To Buy A Snorkel - Is The OEM Trailhunter Version Available For Purchase?

Hey! I'm looking to add a snorkel asap. The inlet for the factory air box worries me for water crossings, probably more so then when the last generations had the intake in the wheel well. Anyone try to buy the OEM Trailhunter snorkel from the dealer? I have no idea when someone will make an aftermarket version... Let me know! I'm sure I'm not the only one looking to upgrade right away. Picture below for reference.

It's neat having five ways to open your tailgate, but then you find out there's no manual lever, haha.

I'll try disconnecting the battery tomorrow; first oil change is due soon anyway. Still, it's a pretty silly issue.

Anyone else dealing with tailgate troubles? It's really bumming out my weekend vibes.
