The tailgate pull-strap on my wife's 2007 Roomster has broken.

Is the tailgate interior panel just a pop-off - pop-on? If so, I could surely fix some sort of replacement for her to stop her getting her hands dirty.

Has anyone else had this problem and effected a repair?

 

Loads of people, one screw through the handle then yank the panel off.

OK, thanks, So, just that one screw, and all the others are poppers. In that case, I'll give it a go (when it stops raining!)

I find the pull strap difficult to use as I find it too short because the tailgate hits your forearm before you reach the point when the tailgate closes under its own weight
