I just completed mines today and your video made it super easy. I did put two side tape on the bottom and top to help keep it in place and I invested in a 5.00 rivet gun from Harbor Freight.
I called our local Ford dealer and the trim strips are $70 a piece, I removed the rivet, added Flex-Seal silicone underneath the trim and replaced the rivet. so far, so good. No leaks!
Great video! So was the water coming in at the rivet, or the in around the window trim? Also, how did you install the rivet.....? I didn't see that in the video?
I replaced my back window the was leaking for the sliding rear window and it was still leaking with new window and seal what I found about was those rubber trims was dry rotted so the water would go straight to the inside and not run it off like it was supposed to

Great job with the work and the video.! Have you experienced issues with rain leaking since redoing your roof trim? I'm thinking of doing mine (2013 F-150 SuperCab) using your process.

You can use silicone but I’ve used 3M double sided tape to install low profile rear spoilers on the trunks of many of my cars and years later the 3M still holds strong. Also since you are wedging the trim behind the window stripping it will stay in place just fine. What is really holding the trim is the rivet at the top, the tape is there just to reduce any chance of rattling so silicone would be fine but messy. It would be great if you could like the video and subscribe to my channel. Thank you
Used a standard rivet gun. I first carefully drilled out the old rivets, put the new trim in place, then place rivet in gun then in the whole ensuring the trim is between the rivet and the metal/whole. Keeping pressure on the rivet start squeezing the rivet gun handle a few times until you hear the pop of the rivet. Note it’s important you use the factory rivet since it has plastic in the rivet hole to prevent water getting in. If you used a standard rivet you then need to make sure you get the right size rivet and need to cover the rivet hole with silicone or something to prevent water getting in.
Did you replace these because of a leak? My truck is leaking in this area and I am wondering if this is where the water is coming from. My seals are also loose on one side where the leaking is.
I recently noticed the passenger side trim on my 2004 F-150 pulls right off, but it's secure enough that it won't go anywhere. Mine isn't riveted, one end slides into the long roof trim and the other end slides into the window like yours. They're $15-20 apiece and not important enough for me to replace at this time.
Hey Gil, I was planning to but sold the truck. I was planning to lightly sand the surface and use filler where needed then through down a base coat and spray it semi-gloss black or flat black. I was hoping you could like the video and subscribe to my channel. Thank you, Wil
I wish Ford would just make something simple and strong. The rear window assembly, sliding window, and the 3rd brake light design has been garbage since 1986.

@josephdeanhastings7616 part number and link maybe?
Great video! So was the water coming in at the rivet, or the in around the window trim? Also, how did you install the rivet.....? I didn't see that in the video?
Perfect. I'm having the same problems with my 2013 Ford F-150.
Great video. Fixed mine.
Were you getting a leak inside from water
I replaced my back window the was leaking for the sliding rear window and it was still leaking with new window and seal what I found about was those rubber trims was dry rotted so the water would go straight to the inside and not run it off like it was supposed to
I sealed mine and around the top of the window and 3rd brake light....no leaks going on 3 years . ..
Flex seal spray?

The trim is cosmetic to hide the welds. So no issue with leaking.
Where did you get the replacement rubber piece?

@@neverneatgarage Thank you
Do you think you can use some kind of silicone sealant instead of using the tape to hold it in better?

How did you install the new rivets?
Used a standard rivet gun. I first carefully drilled out the old rivets, put the new trim in place, then place rivet in gun then in the whole ensuring the trim is between the rivet and the metal/whole.

What did you do
@@SexyTexas Turns out it was the back glass seal. Had the seal replaced and fixed it.
@lukeforwoodson4705 where did you take it to have seal replaced?
@@lukeforwoodson4705 What did it costs to replace it?
@@burleyg1063 it ended up just being the seal on my back glass which apparently is very common. The resealed my back glass for $200
Awesome job.

Did you ever clean up the window trim? Mine is super weathered and I’m thinking about painting it.

Did you by chance have a leak where you replaced these?
No. The trim is cosmetic covering two large welds.
I wish Ford would just make something simple and strong. The rear window assembly, sliding window, and the 3rd brake light design has been garbage since 1986.
Mine's also sun rotted. Guess that trim is just there for looks.
Yeah, it just cosmetic but it made the truck look old.
