I know its an old thread but if people find themselves here through a search to fix the velcro, here's a video to help.

I found a part number F75Z-78624A14-AAA, but havn't been able to confirm if it's whole kit or just one piece.

I've un-velcro'd mine about 5 times in 16 years... Not sure what that says about me.

Anyway, they still work fine. YRMV.

My Velcro still works great. But just in case I picked up the snaps the last time I was at the junk yard.

I also picked a set up at the junk yard a few weeks back. I though it was a cool and clean setup verses the Velcro.

Now that I have seen the video and how there should already be location in the molded plastic for it, I may install it sooner than I though.

You should run over to the pick and pull there in Sacramento. They have 2 Lincoln navigators and about 5 expeditions on their lot which should have those clips. All you need is a screwdriver to get them out. very simple.

I went to the Antelope one to get mine for the video. Last weekend I went to the Rancho Cordova yard and picked up four headrests to do the third row conversion. Cut out the whole bar and mounts with the headrest. Only paid $4.50 each.

Nice, you will like the third row headrests. Did you pick up the headrests from a Navigator or Excursion?

I put in one clip the other night. The video inspired me to get it started. I have not finished so no pictures yet.

My velcro flew the coop years ago. I've been using a 1/2" roofing nail on each one to hold it up when not needed.

I used iron on velcro I bought at WalMart. It has been holding up so far. I used a wet cloth between the iron and the velcro/carpet when heating so I would not burn the carpet. I did it with the seats still in the Excursion.

Ok, so I finished up the install of the clips to replace the velcro. Not too bad of a job, its always tough making that first cut. As the video shows there is a molded indention where you need to cut out the plastic for the clips.

When we got our 2002 last year I noticed this same annoyance.
Fixed it with 4 large snaps from Jo-Anns.
Use small screws to attach the male piece to the seat back.
Use the setting tool to crimp the cap to the female part.

Mine are shot too.
I like the clean look with these retaining clips.
Any Ford part numbers? Not too many scrap yards here in central NJ

The install was easy and works well.
I haven't undone the flaps since installing the snaps.
It was really annoying having the panel come loose.
