Update. Nice and snug. Getting checked out at a dealer but this is nice to have in case of emergencies
Basically building a bra made out of extra absorbent microfiber material that will hook onto the mirrors with an elastic band. it will hug tight over the front seal and reduce the amount of water during heavy rain.
Don’t have a garage so looking for some peace of mind when the Bronco is parked in heavy rain.
it feels like the seal above the windshield will likely be recalled, or potentially the drain plugs. It’s been reported quite a bit that heavy rain leads to water build up in the corner overflow reservoirs that can’t drain fast enough. From what I’ve seen first hand, water finds a way out of the A pillars (hood release on the drivers side and airbag panel on the passenger side).
Until Ford addresses, this seems like a quick fix without messing around with a tarp on a somewhat regular basis, which could also scratch the paint. I could go with a bestop sunrider for 1k but there’s no hard evidence yet that it will solve this problem given the product isn’t out until later this month, and the issue resides in the seal. Although if sunrider overlaps the seal better than the MIC panels it would potentially work too.
