- 2002 Explorer XLT
This past winter, I noticed that the appliqué panel on the rear lift door of my 2002 XLT had split down the middle, through the Ford emblem all the way from top to bottom. This appeared to be a common complaint last winter.
I went to a local dealership and I can order the panel for $50-55. They told me that labor to install it would cost between $250 and $300. There has to be an easier and less costly fix than that!
My questions are –
Is there a way that I can install the new panel myself, or do I have to get it installed by the dealer?
Do they make an installation kit for these?
Thanks!
Steve
