I should have watched your video until the VERY end.

I had two pieces left....glove box! They really did cover everything.

Did you take your original Ford pieces out or did you store them under the new ones?

I pulled the OE out and saved them.....just in case

Good. I did that too.

But I had one leftover. A figure 8, looks like a dual cup holder. I either can't find where it goes or it belongs to someone who bought the center console for the back seat. Any idea?

I had 2 pieces left over, the figure 8 like you and a piece that looks like it would fit in the sun glass holder but it's to big. I'm assuming it's a generic kit and may contain pieces for different sub models.

I thought the same thing. But it actually does fit the sunglasses holder. You have to mold (wedge) it into place, starting from the back & fold it in. Now my sunglasses don't rattle around and drive me crazy!

It might also depend on the size of one's sunglasses too.

I went to the amazon website to look around & found this pic. Where the hell is this?

It's obviously not the cup holders for the driver/passenger.

Nope.

Left pic is the middle row & right pic is the front row.

But if you look at the inventory, the figure 8 is not shown. What is going on? Do they put that in to just mess with us?

The picture I posted (on the left) shows the cup holders already have two individual circles for the 2nd row. You must be saying if you got a bench seating option. That explains it.

And there isn't a dual cup holder available for the 3rd row seating.

Nope! It sticks to the rubbery window/door trim. In fact, the problem is that really is not a good surface to stick to. I'd recommend thoroughly cleaning it before applying the window shade. Make sure you leave a little bit of a gap between the front and rear. When in the sun, the heat expansion made mine rub. I had to remove and replace one of the back window shades and applied new tape. The surface of the trim was not worse for the wear at all.

Its funny you mentioned that, I just finished taking a dremel to mines because mines were rubbing due to heat expansion, but I have the low profile version.

The AVS part is the exact same as the Ford part...just cheaper. Yeah, I thought about dremeling it but it wasn't too big of a pain to remove and replace with new tape.

No they are not the same, the Ford deflector protrude further out than the AVS.

The stock picture on the ford site is wrong. My Ford window shades look like the AVS shades and are made by the same company. A87880F1-4E6E-41D9-A9DF-CAF5F0BD0E3F.jpeg

You're right it does fit the sunglass holder but according to the online instructions it is intended for the storage space under the smaller 8 inch center infotainment display.

It's actually for under the smaller Nav Screen (not the 10.1inch portrait style).
But I, too, put mine in the sunglasses holder.

Ford window deflectors. ~$85. Nice now that warm weather is here. Allows you to crack the window open 2-3" in the rain. I think it looks good on an ST.

Your side window reflectors look great but when i looked at Ford accesories they looked different than yours. Do you have the Ford part number?

Post #70 (on page 4?) of this thread has the correct link. Unfortunately, the website picture is wrong so people keep asking if that is the right one.
