Wondering how to adjust my rear gate? One side will not close all the way and when i hit bumps the interior lights come on.

Look at the hinges on the bottom. They're welded, so see if they have separated from the body. The bushings are replaceable if they are worn.
I'm having a similar issue, maybe someone else can chime in. The strikers don't seem to have any adjustment unless the interior backing plate can be moved.

Found out that the latch it self is not closing all the way. I PB blasted them but probably going to have to replace them.

How does yours work?
Mine seems to have three positions...open, latched and then a third position where you can push it in further past the point where the pawl rests. When the glass is closed, it stops at the second position.
