Those are what I used. Brake pedal is very easy and the gas pedal took a bit more persuasion. But overall easy to put on. They have been gone for 5000 miles.
I have the same ones on my Maverick, except in silver cause black was sold out at the time I got them. I have been very happy with them and ditto to everything stated above.

I am a near deaf Sr Citizen but it made me sit up and take notice..!

Best stereo I have heard in a vehicle in a long time including Harmon Kardon.
Glad to hear that the 25's B&O is still a good system. I have never been one to customize stereo nor have I every had a subwoofer in a vehicle, but this B&O system in my 24 Lariat with the amp and sub is by far the best my music has ever sounded in a vehicle I have driven.

Congrats! Also just took delivery on mine; very similar build to yours.

To add to the (minor) gripes, I do not like how the handful of buttons by the volume knob feel all attached together, and all move a little when you press any of the buttons. Also, my window lock button is non-functional. LED illuminates, but it does not block any window from going down (no matter from master or each switch). Another forum member local to me has the same issue with his '25. My limited experience with FORScan programming tells me something probably isn't set right in the BCM.

Otherwise, it is a definite step up from my '23 XLT. The plethora of cameras and interface for them are great. Sync 4 is a massive step up. The B&O system is really good. This is either the best or 2nd best car (factory) stereo I've had. I had a Grand Cherokee with a factory Boston Acoustics system that was good.

Still getting used to hybrid.

That is the first issue I have heard of on the 25s. Wasnt there a SIX WEEK hold for quality assurance ?

I honestly think it's a case of terrible brake and gas pedal placement. I am 50, have owned 30 cars, and can't remember ever having owned one with the gas pedal so far in front of the brake pedal? I have adjusted, and it's completely fine, but it's an oddly placed pedal.
Many Fords are like this, and I believe it may be an attempt to reduce the "oops wrong pedal" issue some older folks have.

You can try adding a single pedal cover to bring the pedals more in line with each other.

Just 1 day old at this point so I am barely getting used to the Maverick. Lots of great features in the 2025.
So far just a few negatives.

The main bothersome thing is the awkward position of the gas and brake pedals. I am having trouble with foot slipping off the gas pedal and have to keep the seat more forward than normal to deal with it. Even my Ford salesman admitted this problem as he owns a Maverick.

Other things bothersome, passenger seat on the Lariat is all mechanical adjustment, No Fog Lights!
Almost No badging, like a stealth Lariat/hybrid! Tailgate needs a piston to ease the drop...
yes, its easily added but should be included on a Lariat.

More comments later...

As far as the break and gas pedals, please make sure to remove any white dust/dirt cover the dealer may have put there to keep the floor clean. I had the same trouble with my 2024 Maverick til I threw the darn things out.

Still just a few hundred miles on the 2025 Maverick Hybrid and I feel the ride is smoother than first impression but also hear the road noise is not so quiet.

A problem I am seeing is the very aggressive creep anytime you put it in gear, more-so than any of other vehicles I am familiar with. When the engine is running, if you let up on the brake even a little, it is going to travel... Anyone else having probs with this?
