Supercabs???

from the website
Fitment is currently limited to 2009 and newer F-150 trucks that feature the latch shown above with a round release pin. The release pin must be a round steel cylinder with nothing at the end for this model to work (separate part coming soon for alternate latches). Please reference the installation guide for more detailed photos of the release pin. We've found that most supercrew trucks feature the correct latch. Latch not included.

then atop of the site is says ...supercrew release kits...

Both installed. Just fyi, instructions states T25, mine actually needed a T30. Factory torque on those screws were tight with my small screwdriver, thought I might have to pull out the power drill for a minute there.

Got rid of the zipties!

Pull strap stays in place and easy to access.

Haven't really noticed these before but there is 3 factory straps across behind the seats below the window. What do folks even use those for??

I did this mod a while back. Instead of drilling the cylinder, I cut off the horizontal section of the factory latch...20 seconds with a used hacksaw blade. Then I snaked a 40# test snap swivel leader through the spring retainer hole on the latch. 12 inches of paracord through the other end of the leader and around the head rest posts. Total time about 15 minutes. Cost...nothing as I had the used hacksaw, snap leader, and paracord already!
