Abstract

Vehicle closure members are provided that include integrated features for increasing the functionality of the closure member (e.g., a tailgate). A bottle opener feature or an article hanging feature may be integrated as part of a cable connector assembly that connects the closure member to the vehicle body. The integrated feature(s) is therefore conveniently packaged on the vehicle for use during outdoor social gatherings when the closure member is moved to an open position and when the vehicle is in a stationary, non-moving condition.
