I ordered a Mabett tailgate hole cover 2 days after I bought my Maverick (May 15th, '24). The hole cover arrived a few days later (Amazon purchase), and it was actually the first mod or accessory I bought for my truck. Imagine my disappointment when it didn't' fit. I mean, it Did. Not. Fit. Would NOT go into that hole, even when I tried to use a deadblow hammer. Every angle, front end first, back end first, push this way, press that way, hold my tongue and elbow at just the right angle to please the gods .... didn't matter. Wasn't goin' in!! Lol! Hubby even tried, and he's very strong. It wasn't' goin' in there. Poor mold? Misshapen? Bad trim job? Who knows?! Straight back to Amazon it went!!
Enter several members of this forum who suggested purchasing said tailgate hole cover from our own group member, @P99Guy. I contacted him, and his response was almost immediate. In spite of dealing with storm damage in his own town and yard, he sent out a tailgate hole cover to me right away, told me to "try it out". His customer service is amazing!
The part arrived in today's mail, and what a difference! The cover fits nice and snug, is well constructed and sturdy (thicker than the one I returned to Amazon), and is pretty simple to insert. Takes a little elbow grease, but as I said, it's a good snug fit. And it looks great! Attached is a picture, but the reflection of the sun kinda got in the way (not to mention, it's kind of an awkward place to get a good shot. Lol!).
I just wanted to say thanks so much to David, for the quick service and quality product. $16, includes all.
If you're looking for a tailgate hole cover, this is the one you want. And the sales experience was 2nd to none! :)

I bought the one from Amazon and had a heck of a time getting it to fit. Was about to give up and return it when I finally got it to fit Ugh! And yea, it’s a bit flimsy but now that it’s in it’s not coming off 👍
Doesn't compare w replacing the cabin filter in my Focus tho; what a frustrating task that was! 😝

Just curious before I order one is there a purpose for a vented one vs solid one? I have a hard top tonneau cover already an it gets hot in the Texas summer so I’m just thinking in my non educated way about this the vented might be better? If it matters I also have the spray in bed liner.

Some people are concerned about drainage and some people aren't.
