A used Ford Explorer door assembly carries a median asking price of $735, which is 47% higher than the Acura ILX at $500. Supply also plays a role: Ford Explorer has 5,230 priced listings versus 503 for Acura ILX, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
Our guide covers 11 model years for the Ford Explorer (2015–2025) but only 8 for the Acura ILX (2015–2022), so the Ford Explorer data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Ford Explorer door assembly is interchangeable across 15 model years versus just 10 for the Acura ILX — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used front door assembly
- Verify door shell dimensions, body line pressings, and trim moldings, especially when comparing 2-door, 4-door, crew cab, and extended cab body variants.
- Check internal electrical harness connectors, verifying power mirror options (heating, turn signals, blind spot indicators), speaker wiring, and door lock modules.
- Inspect bottom drain holes and lower inner hem flanges for bubbling paint or structural rust common in wet climates.
- Confirm whether the assembly includes glass, window regulator, latch mechanism, exterior handle, and interior panel or if it is a bare door shell.
