Stop Tailgate and Taillight Theft
Tailgate and taillight theft is becoming more common. Thieves are exploiting a flaw in Ford trucks by dropping the tailgate to gain access, bypassing many locks and security brackets.
Ford uses standard T25 Torx screws— which uses a bit found with most household tools. That makes it dangerously easy for someone to remove your tailgate cover, access internal components and drop the tailgate.
Why OmahaBravo Designs Fasteners Are Different
We’re proud to be the first to offer a patented drive fastener to solve this problem. Though it resembles a security Torx, it’s a completely proprietary design. Standard or security bits won’t work on these fasteners.
Everything is Made in the USA and designed to last. Install this kit to block thieves from using your tailgate as an easy access point.
What’s Included in the Kit:
- 8x Stainless Steel Fasteners (#8 sheet metal screw, 3/4" long)
- 8x Stainless Steel Washers (5/8" outer diameter)
- 1x Patented Proprietary Drive Bit
Key Benefits:
- Helps prevent Ford tailgate and taillight theft
- Patented tamper-resistant fastener design
- Made from high-quality stainless steel
- Made in the USA
Don't let thieves have an easy back door. Upgrade your truck’s tailgate security today.

Customer Reviews
Very nice looking product. Went on very easy.
This kit was super easy to install. Looks factory. A regular person wouldn't know it's there.
Have a 2025 F350 Lariat Ultimate and wanted protection for my taillights which are extremely expensive to replace. I've heard insurance will cover replacement, but if you're traveling the last thing you want to have to deal with is no taillights...it's a shame we have to worry about this, but it's the world we live in. So, to help prevent thieves from making off with my taillights I purchased the cover guard, tail guard and light guard. All of my questions were answered promptly before I ever actually purchased anything, which was great. Installation was a breeze, but the installation instructions are all video based, so I recommend keeping a lap-top handy which is what I did. Also, just want to reiterate a point OB made, if you have 2025 you'll want to remove the tail gate tie downs from either side shown in the pic. All in all, I hope I never need any of this taillight protection but better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it ;)
I haven't installed them as of yet, Like Most FORD'S in the Country, mine has been in the SHOP a LOT for Issue after Issue with the Transmission etc etc etc . I'll be Installing them this Week 08/11/25. However, the Parts came Quickly in a Black Bubble Wrap Bag all in tact and all pieces there with the Installation Tool. I'll see how easily they Install and Look. Hopefully they are Perfect, I expect nothing Less.
The CoverGuard was super easy to install. Great quality on the fasteners and the security bit needed to install/remove them.
