Here are the Ford ones. They are 1-1/4" wide and the fronts are 12" long and the rears are 7-3/4". I used some FordPass Rewards on them.

I ordered the same and was very disappointed with the size . . . covered only a very small portion of the sill and did not cover the edges, so I ordered a set of Honda protectors and glued the Ford Maverick plates to them.
Here are pics of the front sill. The rear ones were equally well-fitted. I only wish I had a "Goose" plate to put on the rear ones.

What year and model honda did you order these for? Got pix of the rear ones?

I just purchased and installed the OEM door sill plates. I like the way they look, but they are too small. I used FordPass points.

Agree. Like the looks but Way to Small

Thanks for the tip. I looked at the Tufskin ones and purchased them. Got the plain for $39.99 and $5 shipping. Here's the link if anyone else is interested.

Thanks for the link, looks like just what I am looking for to cover the door sill.

That's not a door sill protector. That's a door sill accent!

I purchased same but before install I looked for something with better coverage. Found these on Amazon made for a Honda Civic. Fit the Maverick perfectly and I was able to overlay the Maverick moniker. I know this isn't particularly helpful to you now and I have no intention of upstaging, but perhaps others will gain.

And, here's how they turned out.

Please post when you receive and install. Would love a report on quality.

Wow! Apologies for being so late with a reply. These are basically tape and I just didn't see how they would hold up for very long. Plus, I wanted something a little more "classy". Installed one and then removed it and took off a smudge of paint. Dang. Forced me to purchase something that covered most of the sill and found nice ones meant for a Honda Civic on Amazon. I've posted pics here before, but happy to include again.

I'm more concerned about the plastic between the sill and floor mat. It's such a high step it, that's the piece that takes a beating

You're absolutely correct. I put on snappy looking door sill protectors and for what? Well, I did it to give me the feeling I was protecting the paint, but my foot never touches that part. It's the plastic piece you mentioned. So far, what I've done to it is cleanable, but who knows how long that will last.

Looking at your photos and groovesocket’s photos, is it possible the Ford Maverick sill protector is supposed to be installed on the plastic piece. It looks like the size is perfect for the sill protector to fit into the opening on the top of the plastic.

You may be on to something there. It does look like it’s the right size.

Haven’t installed mine yet, I wonder if anyone else has tried that?

"Oh, now you tell me!" I think you're right. That would certainly make more sense. Many people were complaining about how small they were thinking they were supposed to fit onto the painted sill rather than in that space in the floor ridge. How could so many of us get that one wrong? I guess we (present company excluded) just got locked in to putting them on the sill.
I'm now tempted to peel mine off and see if I can reposition it onto the plastic.
