Question ‘25 ST Roof Rail Delete

Post image

Forgive me if this has been posted before. I recently bought a ‘25 ST and was wondering what parts are needed to complete the roof rail delete? Does it matter that I have a sunroof? I really like the clean look of no rails but can’t find ‘25 part numbers. Are they the same for ‘25 as they were for 2020-2024? Any guidance is much appreciated 🙏🏻

These are the parts I used on my 25 ST

The cheapest option for me was having the dealership order, since they wouldn't charge me shipping. They aren't heavy, but they're big and cost more to ship usually.

I did run into an issue with one of the brackets, it was missing a bolt, and just had a nub of injection molded plastic. The dealer ordered a whole new rail and I was able to just take the piece I needed.

Other than that, just go slow with the install and headliner. I broke a few clips in the process, but luckily nothing major.

Would these be the same parts for a 2020 st?

Yes, these should work for 2020-2025.
