Seeing that there is a number of makers here, I thought I'd post up the files I designed/used to print the Wife's hitch plug, in case anyone may want to give it a go.

The Zip file has been updated 03-15-2022 with newest version files.
The buttons are resized so no filing/sanding of leading edge is necessary.

A Great Glue To Use
Glue Applicator Bottles
Clearcoat
EDIT: 03-24-2022 A new version of the main cover is available. It has smoother corners and rounded over top and bottom edges. All of the other files from the original archive work with this new cover.
CLICK HERE to download the new file.
All of the parts shown below. You will need to print 2 lock buttons and 2 of the upright shims. Support material will need to be printed for the backside of the horse plate.
EDIT: Added a "Button Locator Jig" to the .zip file. You will need to re-download to get the added file. This saves the trouble of inserting the plug to mark for location.
What the finished part will look like from the backside.
