Can anyone give me the proper name for the piece of plastic that goes over the licence plate light assembly on the liftgate?

Additionally, link me to a website selling a chrome one?

Thanks!

Holy crap! Man, I've looked, and I'm at a loss as well.

You may have discovered the Jeep equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle.

I checked my factory service manual (1998) and could find no mention of it.

I looked on partsgeek, rockauto, and autoanything using the following trems with no luck:

Rear license light
liftgate handle
rear light housing

I don't know what the hell else you'd call it!

Thanks for all the help guys, I'll keep searching around. But as far as finding a replacement I may have to stick to hunting ebay.
