[Ford Explorer: 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018] Review: No Directions but Easy to Install - The trim on my driver side front window flew off while driving home. I looked on-line to see how hard it would be to do this myself. It looked fairly simple so I started searching for product options. There are various 3rd party options for this particular part. Every manufacture has different adhesive options. Some products expect you to buy the tabs separately and some expect you to apply a liquid adhesive. I went with the desertcart recommended option which was this one. This product had every thing needed the tabs were pre-installed and they had a double adhesive tape for applying the trim versus using some glue. The whole install was fairly easy to install and took me just 15 min. I did spend 30 min researching online videos since Dorman has no instructions for installation. Most places that carry these DIY products have video resources Dorman has none. My online search gave me three good tips. The first tip there is a tab at the very top of the window trim that is in the car itself and not part of the window trim kit. If you don't remove it first then you will never be able to install the trim. I had to pry it out with a screwdriver and break the clip to get it out. The other tip is to start the install at the bottom of the window and work your way up first . The bottom needs to be in the right place for all the screw holes to line up for the install kit same goes for the trim molding that snaps on top of the install kit start at the bottom. I was also warned to not over tighten the screws that attach the install kit for fear of snapping the plastic. The Dorman plastic was very sturdy I think you would have to crank down really hard for this to happen. Those are my tips I would recommend using this product and think anyone that can use a nut driver or socket set can easily do this install themselves. Now only time will tell on how good this products really is and if it everything stays secure. Review: Good quality, great fit, great value - The quality of this replacement part is good (very close to OEM) and the fit on my 2015 Explorer is perfect. I liked that the exposed part of the trim was covered by a cling film to prevent any marks until the trim was installed. This is a completely functional and affordable replacement part. (Tip: when removing the old trim start at the top (roof) and when installing align the pin closest to the roof first.) ## Features - Direct replacement - this replacement A-pillar trim matches the fit and appearance of the original part.Material:plastic - Restores appearance - this replacement A-pillar trim restores a like-new appearance to the windshield pillar - Easy installation - no special tools required - Vehicle tested - this trim piece has been vehicle try-on tested to ensure proper fit - Ensure fit - to make sure this part fits your exact vehicle, input your make, model and trim level into the garage tool ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07P2B2G5F | | Best Sellers Rank | #760,892 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #821 in Automotive Window Moldings | | Brand | Dorman | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (843) | | Date First Available | February 21, 2019 | | Exterior | Plastic | | Item Weight | 2.01 pounds | | Item model number | 926-450 | | Manufacturer | Dorman Products | | Manufacturer Part Number | 926-450 | | Model | 926-450 | | OEM Part Number | BB5Z-7803137-AB; BB5Z7803137AA; BB5Z7803137BA; BB5Z7803145AA | | Position | Center | | Product Dimensions | 46.38 x 5.75 x 3.94 inches | ## Product Details - **Color:** Black - **Brand:** Dorman - **Fit Type:** Vehicle Specific Fit - **Surface Recommendation:** Window - **Manufacturer:** Dorman Products ## Images ![Dorman 926-450 Driver Side Windshield A-Pillar Molding Compatible with Select Ford Models - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713+fJETToL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What type/size screws and washer is needed to install the inner bracket to the vehicle itself?** A: You can use the same alreary installed in your car.... **Q: Is this for the drivers side or passenger side?** A: This is for the driver's side. **Q: What adhesive is required?** A: No adhesive is required.

The first ones adhesion didn't stick well and it blew off while driving.
