I do have plugs/covers for the factory in-bed prep package on a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado. That said, the plug/covers only fill the actual opening in the hitch, not the opening in the bed and I am not aware of a cover for this part. In order to plug the outer four pucks you'll need the Replacement Puck Plug Covers part # 58199 (2) and in order to plug the center gooseneck hitch ball opening you'll need the Rubber Hole Cover for Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # RP30136 which are both confirmed fit.

The other option you may be interested in to cover the actual opening in the bed would be a bed mat, the DeeZee Custom-Fit Truck Bed Mat part # DZ86973 for 6.5' beds and part # DZ86974 for 8' beds.
