Product Description
Top-Half Chrome Mirror Covers for Tahoe & Yukon, Tape-On (MC55196)
On a 2015 to 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe or GMC Yukon, MC55196 puts chrome across the upper part of each mirror housing. The note reads "Top Half only," and the set mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Both fitment rows are tagged 4-door SUV and cover the same six years, 2015-2020. The title names the Tahoe and the Yukon, as the rows do, with no trim limits on either.
Which of the two sets?
There are two mirror cover sets on this sheet. This one is top half only and taped. Its sibling, MC55195, is noted as a "Snap on replacement set," with no tape listed and no coverage note. If you want an adhesive mount and top-half coverage, MC55196 is the match. If you want to avoid adhesive, MC55195 is the alternative. The catalog doesn't give dimensions for either, so check the photos.
The record in brief
- Pieces: 2
- Covers the top half only
- Polished chrome on an ABS plastic base
- Origin: imported
- Each cover sticks on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
The listing doesn't mention a turn signal opening. Because the chrome covers only the upper portion, compare the photos with where any lamp sits on your mirrors, and call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 if you're unsure.
Linked: rear window trim
RW55195 is a 2-piece Rear Window Trim tagged 4-door SUV, also linked here. It's a separate part with its own page for material and mounting.
Same rows, two badges
The Tahoe and Yukon rows are identical: same years, same 4-door SUV tag. The catalog doesn't list a different version for either brand, so owners of both order MC55196. Only the six-year window, 2015 to 2020, limits who it suits.
Lining up the lower edge
On a top-half cover, the lower edge is the line that shows, so it deserves the most care. Prepare the housings first: fix any chips or peeling paint, wash with soap and water, dry, and wipe with rubbing alcohol.
Before mounting, set the cover on the top of the mirror. Check its lower edge from in front of the Tahoe and through the window from inside, and adjust until it runs evenly. Mark the position with a few strips of painter's tape. Line the cover up with the marks and press it firmly along every edge. Do the second cover next and compare the two edges from straight ahead.
The Installation tab lists the full procedure and the tape's temperature range. A dry, mild day is best. Keep the vehicle out of rain and the first wash until the bond has had time to settle.
Care and questions
Use mild soap, water and a soft cloth on the chrome, and skip abrasive pads, polishing compounds and harsh chemicals that can scratch the plating.
Check the Tahoe's year, and ring 877-752-3811 with any MC55196 questions.

Installation tips: Mirror Cover Set
- Unpack all 2 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
