IIRC it is much easier to get to the back of the HU on the explorer than it is the Taurus, if/when you do need to get back there. Great choice on the white, Ford's paint game is on point with their vehicles. Nice ride!

Very nice Mr. Al! You definitely deserve it. Can't wait to see what you come up with.
So what happened with the Element that made you feel the need to retire it ? :)
That's pretty slick!
Them door grills and pillars.. hmmmmmmmmmmm
Thanks, guys!
If I ever go out of town, I'll toss it in...but around town I feel safe enough to risk only carrying tire sealant.
It had 151k miles on it and stuff was starting to tear up here and there. I actually had engine trouble on the way home from VA but managed to limp it home. It was then I decided to start looking.
^^^. I can't fault you there and am really feeling your new choice, especially in white. :)
Looks very nice.
Need to ride in it on the way to get some BBQ.... :)

I removed it to give it a closer inspection

I put a magnet to it and the grill is metal. it appears that they just heated the plastic to melt the grill flange in place.

Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised how well the door is built and insulated. Any parts that could rub together are either plastic-welded in-place, or have some kind of gasketing material. Even the plastic clips have foam rubber insulators.
