Anyone with a 2009-2014 A22 that has installed these? I ordered my boat without the pop up cleats because i disliked the factory location that year and was going to install my own once I figured out where I needed them. 4 years later I am finally ready to install something, and when I was on my buddies 2016 VTX the other day, his boat had these TACO quick connects, so I ordered them. Now I just need someone who has these on their A22 to chime in and give me their experience.

here they are, I am installing 2 on each side, most likely very close to the factory position of the pop-up cleats on the A22's

Super cool looking! Really
Interested in how these work out. Love having cleats available to tie up to a dock or other boat but these looks perfect for bumpers.

To me it looks like one more thing to have to keep in the boat and I would be worried about someone scratching the boat trying to put them in... just my 2 cents.

I liked these as well when I first saw them on a new Malibu.
Please be advised that the ones Malibu uses are named Phender Pro (http://www.bigskyprecision.com/PhenderPro.php)
The ones from Taco Marine are similar in size but the pin is a bit longer and thinner. The most obvious difference though is the price tag with the Tacos around 40$ and the Phender Pros around 100$ per piece.

I customized mine with laser engraving and it really did come out nice.
