Weather stripping on windshield
- Thread starter Bob Fiester

If the molding won't stay on despite being correctly inserted in the slots, you may need to replace the Molding Retainer (the part with the slots). It's only $15 from Ford.
As to pricing, if I order from Tasca they sell the trim for $62.06 plus $21.17 shipping. Total $83.23 plus tax. Shipped from Rhode Island to me usually takes a week and a half.
If I order from parts.ford.com and pick up at my local dealer it's $82.38 plus tax. Available the next day after ordering. In addition if I sign in when I order it gives me FordPass points as well.

I've never replaced the retainer so I'm not sure. However in looking at the pictures (and a video where the person bought them but didn't use them) it appears they have adhesive on the back.
On another note, here's the correct procedure for removing the molding so you don't break it (you can break the plastic while the rubber remains intact such that it will never properly hold on again). Also, if you note the correct procedure for removing, installing is the opposite. Note the importance of the sliding up when you get all the tabs inserted from top to bottom. If you break the hook on the top tab the molding will just fly off.
