removing tailgate - 2015 GM trucks w/BU-Camera

I can hardly reach it to get it out, much less put a cap over it ... We NEED it off often because we haul a truck camper -- and I imagine the 5'ers need if off for the in-bed rigging ... so, what a poor design ... if they want to you remove it, it should be accessible, like the trailer lights ... right there in the bumper.
