Anyone know how the cover that goes on the top of steering column is supposed to be attached? Looks like it’s designed to attach to something, but both sides are just loose. Potentially the bottom of the dash screw that I have in the picture? Thank you.

Looks like it would be behind the instrument cluster housing itself, probably just a peg since it doesn't look like it tore through.

Probably. Looks more like it was cut like that on purpose for easier installation and not torn. More like it came like that from the factory. No big deal, was just wondering.

I just received my '24 last week like that. It seems the bolts are supposed to go OVER the slits. I am going to reach out to my dealer to see if they can fix it before I do it myself.

Just curious, where did you end up with this? And hope you are enjoying your new truck.

I know this is an old thread.
You've been online as recently as last month so I thought I'd go ahead and ask. Mine is the same way.
"Nemo",
Did you find out anything from Ford or did you go ahead and attach it to that bolt that's shown in your pictures??

Attached to the bolts in the pictures, but then promptly took it out. It added extra creases and now I had two bolt heads staring out at me.

I think they didn’t attach it at the factory to save time. And I’d rather not see the two bolt heads.
