Where do these two funky body plugs go?

[bull]

These two D-shaped plastic plugs with the built-in vent/drain, whatever it is. Where do they go?

Danke Schoen.

[bull]

Oh, awesome! I just crawled under there to put the first one in and punched the middle of it out with my fingers.

Anybody got a spare one they want to sell?

[ChgrSteve67]

I think I have one but I will have to look tomorrow.

If I forget PM me.

Will do. Thanks for checking.

That sucks buddy, it's like 10 minutes from the time you found their location to the time you posted about punching the hole.

Yea, nothing like instant results. I was taking pics/posting in the garage and as soon as I got the reply I went straight to work breaking stuff.

Gently does it bull. The centre is the weakest part. You need to push on the outer edges.

[Ghoste]

If it makes you feel any better Bull, I learned the hard way that you can't push them in with a screwdriver either.

I thought I was being safe using my fingers. Oh well. What's worse is I had the heat gun out warming up some of the rubber plugs to get them in easier but didn't use it on this one.

[ChgrSteve67]

Your In luck Bull I have one.

PM me your address and I will send it to you.
Don't worry about $$$ just pay it forward to another MOPAR guy some day.

[bull]

Awesome, thanks! I plan on doing a pay it forward once I'm done with my restoration. Assuming I get done.

Just wait. I've had to replace mine twice already. 
Perhaps the repro ones are made of a thinner plastic, but mine split on the edge where it sits in the hole. It was fine for about a year, then split again. 

[bull]

Yea, mine split all the way around the edge at the lip except where that vent thing is. It seems like these two vent plugs are a lot stiffer or more brittle than the other plastic plugs in the kit.

[A383Wing]

I looked in my stash of body plugs here....I don't have any, sorry

hey bull, do you have a pic where they are...I looked all around today and couldn't find it. Thanks.

probably covered up with dirt and road grime

This is not my car, because I didn't want to get up out of my comfy chair to take a picture, but it'll work. They go in these big holes in the inner quarter panels right behind the rear wheel opening.

[lasvegas69charg]

cool.  thanks.

And or a cheaper plastic.  Seems like some of the original ones have to be chiseled out to remove them.

The easiest way to get them out is to soften them up with a heatgun first.

I'll be trying that maneuver to get the 2nd one in.

Throw it in (fairly) hot water for a while, much safer than the heat gun.
