Windshield Trim Molding A-Pillar Set, Compatible with 2011-2019 Ford Explorer, Front Outer & Inner Left Driver, BB5Z7803145AA BB5Z-7803137-AA BB5Z-7803137-AB 926-450 BB5Z-7803145-AA Window Accessories

What silly engineer thought it was a good idea to put plastic where it can get hit easily while driving. After 10 years, the plastic degrades and becomes brittle and will crack and break. This replaces the whole piece, and the mounting piece underneath. Good quality, took me about 10 minutes to install.

Excellent fitment on ford explorer. Easy to install

While driving on a trip last week I noticed the rubber molding on left and right windshield panels was dry and breaking off. Panels were fine, but the rubber gone. Unfortunately, I could only find that the entire 2 part assembly for the window trim needed to be replaced. I found these on Amazon and read decent reviews. Since much cheaper than FORD OEM, I purchased these - both driver and passenger side. Packaging was great. Out of the box, quality looks good. Removal of old and installation of the new ones was straight forward, EXCEPT that it is not easy to tell after installing if all the clips snap in and the entire assembly is appropriately tight enough together. Many of the reviews mention having these come off while driving. I will find out. Mine feel very secure, but time will tell. I used the adhesive strip, but did not glue down which I wish I had done for peace of mind at least. They look good, but as my photos show, the top portion of the rubber trim curves out and not a true fit to the top trim piece. I don't recall if my OEM fit the same way. So far I am pleased and glad I chose these as long as I don't lose one while driving.

This is exactly what I needed! I had my windshield replaced and when they installed the new one my trim price was not attached properly and flew off when I was on the freeway. Found this and ordered it hoping it would save me a costly dealership appointment. It fit and worked perfectly. It did crack at the top during my install but it was TOTALLY my fault! Don't force it to snap into place.... be patient and once it is lined up properly it fits right in :) Lesson learned lol

Well, my title says it all. It is a direct fit and looks exactly the same BUT the brittle plastic tabs broke on install with very little effort. Will not buy again, will not recommend. Find another seller that has plastic less brittle than the stuff from WW2. Big fail!

Was easy to install very recommended

Perfect for our 2018 explorer. We’ve been waiting months for the dealership to get this part in and tired of waiting so we ordered this and it was a perfect fit and very easy install.

Pretty fragile, pushing hard enough to seat the clips broke the molding. Taking the now broken molding off Broke all the clips that had already been pushed on. The adhesive looked promising.
