I recently replaced my cab corners and on the inner cab corner there is a hole about 1” that came with a plug from the factory. My truck still had one of these plugs installed but is deteriorated to the point it needs to be replaced. Has anybody found a vendor where these are available? The picture shows the hole.

Phil, Perhaps this 1" hole plug would fill the need? Lots of other offerings that may be suitable depending on what appearance you want. I web searched 1" rubber hole plugs. wink

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
