Same part @joeb ordered it seems — thanks for the confirmation!
For the record, I broke mine when removing to install the new carrier. Based on a lot of things I've seen over the years, it's apparent the weak design and poor removal instructions in the workshop manual means these were designed for easy installation at the factory and not serviceability.Same part @joeb ordered it seems — thanks for the confirmation!

Awesome news, thanks for the update!So, it appears to be the correct panel with those clips attached.
I will install it tomorrow and report back. But I think those of us who will be "bugged" or annoyed knowing that panel is "just not right" will be happy to know it's a less than 30$ fix for our OCD!

I ordered one too since I last posted, and installed it as well thanks y’all!
Same bad luck on my end - from an OCD perspective I want to have the replacement panel on hand in case I ever remove my molle bag setup - but when I see this stupidity on multiple Ford Parts websites - it kind of makes me lose faith in the whole process again.
@Ford Motor Company - seriously - you guys need to be better - this is a horrible customer experience. 2 Different online parts shops same stupid result $180 to ship a $30 plastic part.
