It's getting to the point where my felt is rotting so bad the window is starting to get marks from the scraping... Tried the online sites to no avail. Guessing Re-yard items won't be in much better shape as MI winters pretty much consume any thing other than Kryptonite ( I'm guessing ). Any clue as to aftermarket co.? Haven't checked w/dealer yet but figured I'd ask here first... Screeeeeeechhhh!

Your best bet is w/ a ford dealer. It isn't cheap, I recall some one saying it being around $150, but don't quote me on that. Check out TeamFordparts.com and see if you can find it. Mine needs to be replaced also but I need a wiring harness first.:blackeye:

My weather stripping is doing that too, though only on the drivers window. It bugs the hell out of me because you was the window, only to get smudged up again 2 days later. I'd love to find a solution, hopefully nothing that will cost $150.

I just replaced all four of mine. They ran about $60 from the stealership. They're called "window belts" or something like that.

I have a perfectly nice used set for all 4 doors if someone wants to paypal me some $ for them.

This happened to mine. It's probably not the felt, but the metal runner inside corroding and bulging. To temporarily solve the issue, I removed them and shook out all of the loose bits.

I replaced mine with some used ones in better shape, but now I can't get the edge by the B pillar to stay down completely.

Ordered new ones from the online Ford link on the site. Thanks to SvtTour98.5-3 for defining what the hell Ford decided to call "weatherstripping". Once I tried that on the search tab bingo, they popped up. For the $ you can't beat it. Now, what kind of personal hell will I be putting myself through to get these on.... Can't be much worse than the Alt. replacement, or the Struts, or the.......... Thanks for the feedback fellas'.
