Weathertech Mudflaps
Anybody have the no-drill mudflaps from Weathertech?
I am trying to decide between the Ford, Husky or Weathertech mudflaps.
I had the molded Ford flaps on my '04 and I liked them but I had a couple of the screws rust and break off almost causing me to lose one of the front flaps. Was curious as to how well the no-drill flaps hold up.

I had them (all 4) on my 2004 as well. And I know what you mean about the screws rusting. They installed 2 of them, the back ones, with screws that didn't ruct - they looked similiar to license plate screws. But the 2 front ones they used just regular screws that got rusty within a year, no problems but looked crappy. Wonder why they did that?

I bought the Husky and they fit and look great. I did have to drill 1 hole per mud flap to install them...

How did you get by with only drilling 1 hole? The directions show that I would need to drill three unless I have the factory running boards. I am guessing they must be referring to the plastic running boards??

I have the Husky flaps. I was initially confused by the whole "won't fit with the running boards" stuff I read online, but the fronts fit just fine. Plenty of room. The fronts lined up with the existing holes... backs did not. I ended up drilling holes in all four just to make them more feel more secure. Not nearly as bad as it seems at first.
I read a lot of conflicting info from folks - "I drilled holes" ... "I didn't drill holes" - never could really figure out why. ??
Definitely like the way the Husky's look on my truck, very happy so far.

Totally agree with above. Was initially going to go with Ford OEMs, but dealer said fronts wouldn't fit with running boards. Ended up getting Huskys for $26/pair on Amazon. Fronts fit fine with the boards. Had to drill 1 hole each per flap. Other two holes per flap lined up with existing holes. Huskys also came with 3M clear film to protect paint.
Edit: I take that back. I did just find them on Amazon for $26 by searching by the Husky SKU number (56591 and 57591). But it says they do not fit a 2009 F150. If I search Amazon for "2009 F150 Husky" it shows me the mudflaps for $37.95/pair. Not sure which ones to go with now.....I don't want to get something that doesn't work.

you can just get them here for $59.97 with free shipping set of 4:

the part numbers are the same, 04-09. that's the site where I bought mine.
The Weathertech ones look interesting, but seem expensive, and I don't recall seeing anyone on here yet with them.

They are good quality mud flaps. I ended up getting them for $53 from Amazon.
I just noticed that the part numbers on yours are different than mine. Mine are 56591 and 57591. Maybe I got the wrong ones. All I know is they fit right.

I ended up getting these and installed them yesterday. I had one hole that lined up, the second hole from the top. Per the instructions I pulled out the fastener holding the stock flares which lined up with the second hole. Then I had to drill a hole for the top and bottom. There was a fourth screw but I didn't use it. It was pretty secure with only the three so I didn't put one in the hole that was the furthest towards the inside of the wheel well.

I looked at my friends 06 and they looked the same, but I didn't measure the hole spacing.
