Re: Interior HVAC Screen?

I bought a 2010 F150 last month (and gave this Ranger to my wife). It doesn't have a CAF either apparently as they got rid of it and didn't bring it back until 2015.

If they come with the bolt caps sure, I'd love them :). But don't you need them for your truck (unless your replacing)?
