So Ford says they will release the blueprints and CAD drawings for the rear center brackets, Know as F.I.T.S. (Ford Intergraded Tether System)So people can make their own attachments with a 3D Printer.

so what are a few things you would all like to see?
- cup holder
- iPad/ tablet holder (for kids)
- trash can
- Speaker bar
- Projector holder (to shine out the rear window?)

Also once the time comes. Please share your 3D printed accessories here!

I asked about this in another thread. And even suggested in future models, Ford could add them in other strategic locations to add things like an MDT stand (mobile display terminal stand like sales, gov't services, and LE use for their laptops), mounts for dashcams, mini-tables for the back seat for kids to eat/draw/play on, etc.

Just for the one we get though, things on my list of many ideas:
1. iPad/tablet holder (V-wing styled, holds one tablet for each back seat, top hooks to inner headrest poles)
2: trash bin holder
3: interior 360 degree camera mount
4: lower front support for a pet barrier that also clips into seatbelt clips/LATCH points.
5: stabilizer mount for rear seat cooler (think center seat armrest extended to the floor, clips to the FITS), I have an older Vector 12v cooler that I plan on re-engineering for this project).

I have more ideas. The problem is that I want to get my hands on my Maverick to start making some for mine, and some require FITS in locations that it's not actually there (yet). :)

And I like the idea of the projector mount. I have a Kodak Luma projector (small, but it works) that would be awesome to shine against a white wall or something and lay in the bed n watch a movie.

I'm probably gonna buy the cup holder for the rear slot at least

This won't be our road trip vehicle so I don't think I'll need the iPad mount, but you never know

I also hope they add this to other models as well as the front seat. For tablet/ phone holder. For fleets. Or a table.

But yes. Projector. Then mount up a white screen on the hitch.

Saw this on another post/thread about it:
Seems there are a few more under the rear seat:
Ford Maverick Custom Rear slot. (“FITS”) 2022-Ford-Maverick-Lariat-with-2.0-liter-EcoBoost-AWD-Desert-Brown-interior-with-ActiveX-fron

This gives me more ideas... Hmm. :)
[EDIT] After more looking, updated the picture. :)

Interesting. Looks like you get two more under the seat if you don't have the hybrid powertrain. The battery takes up the space where the two FITS slots are on the passenger side.

I'm loving the look of that interior. I know this one's a Lariat, but I'm hoping I'm just as impressed with the interior of the XL I ordered.

Cup holder and trash along with phone cord holder will be in a kit from Ford

My top 3 choices are:
- Rifle / Shotgun holder
- Large rigid fold up tabletop/seat cover that is supported by the back seat so you can toss stuff in the back and not mess up your seats
- Double or quad drink holder

I think it would be neat if some one built a custom cooler that locks into place with the FIT underneath the seat, maybe Yeti will see this post and make it lol 😂
