This rubber plug is found on the bottom side of 68 and 69 Cougars without tilt column. It covers the access hole for the bolt that removes the column head / collar. We notice that most cars do not have them in place. This could be due to over site at the factory or them being lost over the years as the car has been serviced. We have also noted that Dearborn cars rarely if ever have them present and San Jose built cars often have them in place. If you have a Dearborn built car and have this original plug still in place we would be interested in hearing from you!
