Thank you for the video! Everything went just as yours expect the top part won’t click in.
If you can still remove it do so and try starting at the top
I had same problem Ithe top clicked in and when I look inside the clicked in part is not not attached to the molding anymore. :( I read this on some of the Amazon part reviews too.
@@madifrizzellrawlins87 Try to carefully remove it to do it again
I forgot to mention, thank you for the video, it really helps to see it isnt as intimidating as it looks, specially when u have the same year explorer. Hope is still on strong. I lost mine recently and it just an eye sore. I cant stop worrying because it been raining alot here in TX and i dont have a garage. Ty for linking the products you used. 🙏🏻👍🏻
Thanks you for the comments and using the link to shop Amazon
It’s also worth noting that the adhesive strip on those aftermarket parts is pretty shitty. It’s recommended by most windshield guys to use a small bead of urethane windshield adhesive in a few spots on the very inside edge of the rubber seal Making sure the pressure applied to the outer piece doesn’t cause the glue to seep out. Hope that helps. Also, for anyone wanting to know, Summit Racing has the whole set of two of them by PRP for $175. Best to do both sides at the same time. WKT-D1843 is the part number
Good Idea but the part from Amazon is holding great for 50 bucks!
Just got off a cruise today, and mine flew off driving up 75 north. Got home, checked the mail, and the recall letter for this was there. Coincidence? I think not!
Yes I got the letter too It will be interesting to see if they do better as the after market parts are doing fine @@EBONVISION_MEDIA
Thank you for this!
Glad you enjoyed it and are fixing your own Explorer!
There is a recall to replace those A pillar mouldings because of blowing off
I have heard that in spring but no letters or parts available as I heard
Now Ford has finally decided to issue a recall for this! Recalled as a Safety hazard as this piece can fly off during driving and poss a risk to other motorists on the road they state in the recall. My piece flew off last week. I'm trying to decide to wait on the recall to take effect in mid-March or buy an aftermarket and put it on myself.
I just did mine as its 50 bucks and the recall wait and dropping the thing off at ford who will most likely just replace it
I got a letter in the mail from ford of the recall
Yes I did too no telling when the local guy will have parts, but the after market part is holding up well!@@victortrinidad9003
Its true, I checked for the recall but there is no remedy as of yet. They may issue one mid 2024.
It happens the same to me last week, very dangerous.
I just lost my driver side panel 🤬 thankfully no one got hurt. How is your replacement holding off ?
I heard ford finally made them as a recall. I am afraid to wait for them to fix it. Debating to get some replacement meanshile because i dont want to deal with water damage (if it takes long, not sure how safe it is, to leave it as is) 😢 my entire windshield needs replacing. So i am looking at a heavy replacement bill even with the recall.
Still going strong just take your time and have the area clean!
Awesome bro
Thank you ❤so much!!! This is really helpful for a girl.
lmfaoo!!!
Thanks for your video Partner ✌🏾
THanks for the comments good luck with your project you will find this one easy! Steve
Mine got loose and just use sikaflex 11fc and problem solved. No need to buy a replacement
Nice mine cracked without warning after the tape failed
Thanks for the video. I guess the seal comes with it? One of my seals flew off but the cover is still on there.
Yes the seal is part of it, Thanks for using the Amazon link and supporting the channel. Steve
Ive been trying to find just the seal for weeks. Figures its part of the trim. thank you so much!
Your are welcome! Steve
Is weather stripping not necessary under those parts?
The replacement part in link should come with the weather strip and it has 2 side tape to stick to glass
There is a recall for this.
Iheard that but called Ford and they say wait for the letter which never seams to come
Did you really need to take out that top stud (where you used the pry bar)? I am about to order the trim (mine broke).
How is this brand holding up? Did the seal hold?
So far so good no issues! Thanks for watching
Doesn’t look like you have 2 good hands 😂
You are the first to notice it will get better wrist is sprained and I need to be careful with it! Thanks
Most horrible design
Yes the long I have this Explorer the more I miss the 1999 which was built great and easy to service went 276K before the rust got it and the 1994 before it got to 390K
