Hyundai Trunk/Tailgate for Sale in South Africa

Usually a failed lock actuator or broken wires in the rubber boot between the body and the tailgate. We see this on Getz, i20, Accent and Creta models constantly. The wires flex thousands of times and eventually fracture inside the insulation — invisible from outside.

On most Hyundais, fold the rear seats down, climb into the boot and pull the emergency release lever or slide the latch catch visible from inside. Workshop manuals show the exact location per model. If the linkage is broken, you'll need the trim removed to release mechanically.

Used painted tailgates vary by model — an i20 2018 tailgate is stocked across our SA supplier network. Request a free quote through our form with your year and paint code. Drip panels, boot struts and wipers are usually sold separately if you only need those.

Years of opening and closing flex the wires inside the rubber boot joining the tailgate to the body. The copper work-hardens and snaps inside the insulation. You end up with dead wiper, demister, lock or reverse camera even though the connector looks fine.

Lock actuators are generally affordable parts — we source used actuators through our SA supplier network. Request a free quote with your model and year. Labour is about an hour to remove the trim, swap the actuator and re-code the BSI if needed.
