I like the way Saleen trims their quarter windows. Does anyone know if the parts are available and where they could be obtained?

I'm assuming you mean the one on the SC version. I don't believe they offer a kit for that by it self yet. That kit requires the removal of the window and it gets replaced by a smaller piece of glass.

It lays on top of the OE window. I requires urethane to hold it on. I don't believe they sell it yet b/c of the potential of screwing it up.

Ihave tried emailing Saleen using the information found on the LINKS page and have not had a successful contact yet. All attempts have been rejected.Do they really accept and answer emails ?

I got no replies on any of my requests for information from various saleen web addresses but I visited a local dealer that carries half a dozen or so saleen mustangs a year and sells their parts from saleen Canada in Quebec. I saw the quarter window trim in their catalogue and their parts guy got a price of $399 Canadian .I think that is a little more than I want to pay for something to dress up the quarter windows ,especially since I haven't seen them in the flesh. Actually the catalogue picture didn't look the way I thought they would . Oh well on to plan b, whatever that may be.

Ohhhhhhhhh. I had never seen that one before. I was talking about the one that was on their gray show car. The gray trim that was added around that one. They had it on the car they showed at the unveiling in socal. when I asked about it they said they didn't know if they would offer it because you had to remove the old glass. This must be what they decided on instead.

I am looking for the same part. Have emailed Saleen and have not received a reply yet. The quarter window is missing something in its stock form... but I'm not sure if I like the Scoops and louvers either. The Saleen part is subtle but adds a little. Here's a pic.

They are urethaned on not just stuck with doubled sided tape. Seems that was (is) an issuse with Saleen selling them, since not everyone can do that job....

Changed my mind about them due to price and appearance .I have seen the roush louvres applied by a local dealer and think they add more to the car. However, roush is more retro while saleen is more futuristic. Depends on what theme you want to follow.
