Can you tell me more about the clips? It sounds like metal tabs that fasten around the edge of the glass, and which have a bolt on the interior face. When you seat the window on the seal, I imagine the bolts go through to the interior where they can be tightened down from inside (assuming the...

Leaking above the fixed side window on the driver's side, the long window in the back, over the cargo area. Vehicle is a 2000 Sport. There's no visible body rust, though I have seen some rust on the unfinished clips that fasten the rear hatch to the closing dampers. The car's never been in...

Thanks. Any idea what sort of cost is involved?

My used 2000 Sport (deluxe w/ keyless remote and keypad on door) only came with one key/remote pair. If I reprogram the keypad I can do without the second remote fob, but I need at least one extra ignition key for peace-of-mind. Is this as simple as having a copy made, or is there an...

I realize the arrangement looks similar to the one in the sticky, but I have to agree it appears to be only a single piece. The console may not be exactly the same in the short-wheelbase version.

I'm buying a 2001 Explorer Sport. Nearly every vehicle I've seen has some kind of wheel skin on the steering wheel. Why is this? Is there some sort of decomposition problem with the original steering wheel material?

Just a quick post to introduce myself. I had a 2000 Explorer Sport till 2003. It had about 65K on it when I traded it in. My daughter now needs a car for college. Remembering what a pleasant experience our Sport was to own, drive and maintain, I'm in the process of buying one for her. The...
