All their parts are listed on obsolete parts search website: rearcounter.com
Also listed on rearcounter (exclusively): Kama Obsolete Parts (MN), Miller Obsolete Parts (NY), NOS Only (CA).
rearcounter also has some of the same sources that are also listed on PartsVoice.com: Green Sales, Mustang's Etc., Westley Obsolete, Bob High Buck! Allen Ford and etc.
D7TZ-1003148-A .. One Piece Flexible Plastic Chrome Windshield Moulding-72 3/4" long ~ cut to fit / I typed this p/n on rearcounter.com: NOS Parts Ltd does not have any.
D7TZ-1003110-B .. Windshield Weatherstrip, use with above moulding. NOS Parts Ltd has ONE.
But, both of these parts are reproduced, so there's no need to buy NOS

While they may make it in one piece it can't be installed in one piece, never make the turns in each corner.

bringing this back from the dead since I never got around to doing it last winter.
So we are all agree the 1/4" plastic trim must be replaced as its not only for looks but safety?
also I see there was mention of a special tool to install this anyone have one or can point me towards one

If you search Lisle 47000 on youtube, you will see a video on it (although it's a Cheby...)

This may sound like a really stupid question, but do I have to remove the thin trim (79 F150 Ranger) to remove the windshield? I understand the trim has to be installed in the rubber before installing the windshield in the truck, so can it just stay in there? Thanks.

I think it would be easier to remove the windshield either way if the locking strip was removed.
I need to do the windshield on my truck (73-77.5 wide trim) and have been putting it off because of how much of a pain it looks like it'll be.
I have also been pricing paying to have it done.

Found a video. It is of a Bronco, but I believe it still applies.
A little unorthodox, but it worked. At 2:40 he realizes about the interior brackets, one top and one bottom. At 3:08 he starts removing the upper bracket, looks like it is screwed in.

That's a big help - thanks AK.
Wondering about his method of removing the old windshield. Is that the best way of saving the old gasket? Or do you remove the gasket and windshield at the same time?
