  Scuff Plate Grommet, Retainer

• Description:

  Genuine Ford door sill scuff plate grommet, Ford catalog name Retainer, also listed as Scuff Plate Grommet, for 2000-2005 Ford Excursion. This small molded fastener is the push-in grommet and retainer that secures the door sill scuff plate, the protective trim strip that runs along the door opening threshold where feet and cargo scuff the paint, to the body pinch weld and rocker area. The grommet locates the scuff plate and holds it tight so it does not lift, rattle, or trap dirt and moisture at the door opening. Over time these plastic retainers become brittle, split, or pull through, or they are lost when the sill plate or carpet is removed for cleaning or interior work, leaving a loose scuff plate that pops up, buzzes over bumps, or snags on shoes and cargo. Fitting fresh retainers lets the scuff plate seat correctly and stay put. Press the grommet into the body hole and engage the scuff plate tab so it clicks fully home; work carefully in cold weather since aged plastic is easily cracked. Confirm the grommet style matches your Excursion sill plate before ordering, as this retainer is specific to the door sill trim of this body. Inspect the surrounding holes for damage and replace any additional worn retainers at the same time for a secure fit.
