Seal on cab top

I was wondering if all the f150 trims come with the rubber piece (seal?) that goes from back window to the front window on both sides? I see a 50/50 of truck have them in my area as I drive around. Asking because mine looks like it could have had one or should have one being it’s a terrible seam. I have maybe a 6” piece on each side from the back window to top of cab.....Can’t really see if from the ground though.

2016 F-150 XLT

Ford had the Atlas concept that had them but none of them came from the factory.

Wow that’s nice. They do exist...maybe it’s 250s I’m seeing them on. It’s like a continuation of the small seal that starts at rear window but sits down in the channel and not raised like the pic.
maybe this is a rain channel to direct water away from the door?

Do you mean this? I've never seen something that runs the whole length. Post up a pic of what's missing from yours

That's how my wife's 2019 F150 looks. My 2019 F250 has the plastic trim piece that runs from front to back.

Yes that’s how mine looks. It must be the 250s I been seeing then or maybe some earlier models. I have a 2016. It just a bad looking channel.....if I was 7’ tall and had to see it all the time I would be upset. I see if I can post a pic tomorrow...maybe mine looks worse than others.

I would agree that seam isn't great to look at up close.

It is definitely on the new Super Duty trucks and it can be yours for only $96.14 per side!!

I may grab it once they start to show up in the junk yards but I sure won't spend $200 for it. I'm 5'8" and only see it 2 or 3 times a year when I wash the truck.

Thanks for finding that info. I agree 200 is too much...I’m 6’3 and don’t see it unless I’m up there washing it.

I'd be interested to know how that mounts on the SD trucks.

Since the 250's now share the same cab, why the difference?

It costs more to actually finish the truck without the cover through there.

Just ask Chevy. One of their lead engineers actually lamented having to do the plastic piece on the Colorado during an interview in 2015.
