OEM Ford Weather Stripping

The original weather stripping in your Ford vehicle was installed at the factory to help seal off the cabin against wind, rain, and dirt. These rubber and soft plastic slats line your windows and door edges and are secured by adhesives and small screws. They do more than just seal your interior, though. For example, they help to muffle the noise made when a car door closes. They also help cut down on outside noise, which is invaluable when you're trying to have a conversation or listen to a favorite song while you're driving at highway speeds. 

Signs That It's Time to Replace Your Weather Stripping

Even the best weather stripping can degrade over time, though. Here are some indications that yours needs upgrading:

• You hear air whistling through closed windows and doors
• You notice water spots on the inside of your doors
• You see cracks or brittle bits of stripping

Once yours have gone bad, replace them as soon as you can. Fortunately, it's an easy project. Remove any screws, pull the stripping free, clean away any remaining adhesive, and thoroughly dry the area. Next, lay down fresh adhesive, press the new weather strip into the channel, line it up, and press gently. If you need to use screws, they go in last. It's essential that any new weather stripping you use is the same type, width, and length as the piece that was factory-installed. You can ensure that by using genuine Ford weather stripping. It's guaranteed to be compatible with your model. You can find everything you need right here in our online auto parts inventory, ready to be shipped right to your front door.
