eaglescout526 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Has anyone found a kit or perhaps just replacements for the body plugs? I don't have any of the plugs for the doors and would like to know what any of you guys have done to replace any.

If so I just grab them from doors at the junkyard. A couple small flathead screw and patience will get them out .just changed them on my 89

Minuit Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Try looking by the dimensions of the hole. You might get lucky and find something that'll work. Anything round is easy, but if it's the plugs I'm thinking of, it might be tough to find a suitable replacement new.
Strokermjcomanche Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I can grab some the next time I'm at the yard .At the moment I don't remember if the 97 newer plugs are the same , if they are it'll make it easier to find some .
eaglescout526 Posted January 5, 2020 Author Posted January 5, 2020 Good chunk of them went up as far as 2010 but are discontinued but most if not all the body plugs are the same from 84-01
A-man930 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I'm in the middle of stripping my cab interior and wondered the same thing. I'm probably going to just grab one of these kits and hope it covers what I might need. I actually noticed this exact name brand (caplugs) on one of the factory plugs behind the dash. edit: I now see you're talking about a non-circular plug... yeah, no idea on that one.
A-man930 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 These kits might have one that works?? Could contact the vendor and see what he has by measurement. https://www.summitracing.com/search/product-line/scott-drake-body-panel-plugs/part-type/body-panel-plugs
eaglescout526 Posted January 5, 2020 Author Posted January 5, 2020 Yeah there’s like really funky oval-tangular plugs but otherwise all are just simple circles. I’ll have to check that link out.
Limeyjeeper Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Team Cherokee still has a decent selection of body plugs available
