LE Quarter Windows Installed

[mustangguy88]

Got lucky after combing Ebay almost daily for two years. I have seen two sets in two years, mine being the second set.

I have checked with the dealer by part numbers, the door glass trim and quarter windows are not available. Even on special order.

So for anyone who can get them its like hitting the lottery.

Now to stick to the plan, getting ready to paint the trim black.

Finally finished the paint work in the garage, now onto wet sanding and polishing.

Here are some pictures of the glass with the trim painted and glass tinted, they go on next week.

Also these are pictures of the part numbers. Unfortunately there were no part numbers on the Window wipe trim for the doors.

The 50th LE 1/4 glass is listed on Ford parts sites, but they are $1k+ each for L & R excluding any of the trim pieces. You may also need to supply a valid 50th VIN and proof of ownership to complete the purchase transaction.

Looks great!!

Any tips/tricks to relay regarding getting the original rear 1/4 glass out of the car?

What product did you use to reseal the LE glass to the car?

Honestly, if you get a hold of glass to install. There are two methods to remove the old glass. The first is to remove all the interior components and use a special wire to cut through the seal( real PITA) The other is mush simpler. Contact your local body shops and get in contact with their glass guy. Remove the upper door trim and a retaining panel behind the door glass seal to quarter window, then let the glass guy go to work. They have special tools that get the job done in 20 to 30 minutes for both sides and should run you about $100 to $150 for the job. Your material costs will be around $40.00 to $70. doing yourself, plus a good day of time and aggravation, and a strong sense of hope everything seals up correctly. I do 99% of my own work, but there are some things better left to a specialist.

Good luck.

I will post a set of Ford install instruction. Thats why I recommend a specialist way less aggravating.

For anyone interested in this installation, with the pictures already posted to this thread and these instructions from Ford, this is all the info needed to achieve a factory quality installation of the LE Quarter Glass.

Hope this is helpful to those who need it.

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but I just came across this thread looking for something else.
Anyway, do you know if the chrome trim on the LE window lines up with the black non-LE upper door glass trim? Meaning, if you painted the chrome quarter glass trim with a matching black then installed the LE glass, would the original black upper door glass trim bolt in place and fit the LE trim correctly?
