Trying to save myself a drive to the dealership- 2005 f150, the external plastic grating that sits below the windshield is missing one or more fasteners and is driving me CRAZY as it rattles intermittently at high speeds. Can anyone direct me to the name of the part in looking for? No idea where to start for a part search online as fastener is well a little too broad...

It's called a windshield wiper cowl. Sold as a left/right assembly. Each piece is around the $70.00ish dollar price range.

TASCA and other Ford pats places sell them.

Also auto zone and other parts store carry an assortment of the black push in type fasteners. If its the removable fastener that is broken you can probably find replacements locally and just snap them in to hold the cowl.
If its actually the cowl pins that are permanently attached and snap into the truck then Ebay or Tasca are your best bet for a new cowl

There was also a TSB put out on these cowl pices popping up in the center where they meet. Frustrating to look out your windshield and see these misaligned or one side popped up slightly. I have had to push them together several times, but after a few short drives, they always seem to seperate in the center where they meet, and one corner of one piece will be slightly in the air.

If you search here on windshield cowl, you will find threads on this.
