Product Description
TH87521 Nissan Pathfinder 1987-1995 2-Door Full Rocker Kit, 10 Pieces, 5.5"
Ten polished stainless pieces make up TH87521, a Full Kit QAA lists for the 2-door Nissan Pathfinder SUV from 1987 to 1995. Coverage is molding bottom to door bottom, and the stated width is 5.5".
Two Full Kits, one fitment
QAA lists two Pathfinder Full Kits with the same fitment line, "2-door, SUV," and the same molding-to-door-bottom note:
- TH87521: 5.5", 10 pieces (this kit)
- TH87522: 6.625", 8 pieces
Both are described as filling the same space, but they list different widths and piece counts, and the record doesn't say which trucks each one is for. Don't pick one from the listing alone. Measure from the lower edge of the molding to the door bottom, then call 877-752-3811 with the figure and a photo of the side so we can confirm.
Lower Kits
Two eight-piece Lower Kits are also linked: TH87523 at 3" and TH87524 at 4.75". They work up from the door bottom and don't need the molding as an edge.
Material
The Pathfinder set is polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and it attaches over the existing finish with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the surface.
Checking the molding
A Full Kit's top edge meets the molding, so it needs to be present, straight and secure. If it's loose, cracked or missing, fix it first or consider one of the Lower Kits.
Surface prep
- Clean the Pathfinder's lower panels and rinse.
- Take every trace of wax and polish off the lower body with wax-and-grease remover, working up to where the molding begins.
- Repair rust, chips or flaking paint.
- Give the 2-door's panels an isopropyl wipe last.
Ten pieces
The record doesn't list where each piece goes. Match the pieces to the photos and label each liner.
Dry fit
Tape each piece up between the molding and the door bottom. Check both edges and open the doors.
Bonding
Peel the liner a few inches at a time and press firmly. Fit a few pieces first and check them before going on.
The rest of the Pathfinder kit
Copy the finished Pathfinder run's gaps so both runs match.
Conditions
A mild, dry, shaded day with warm panels. Don't wash for a day.
Ordering
Send your year and your molding-to-door-bottom measurement. We'll check it against both Full Kits.
Full Kit or Lower Kit
A Full Kit covers the whole space below the molding. A Lower Kit covers a band of a set height from the door bottom up and leaves the area above it as it is. If you like the idea of the trim meeting the molding, measure for the Full Kits. If you would rather choose the height yourself, mark 3" and 4.75" on the door with masking tape and look at each before deciding.
Save the packaging and backing liners until all ten pieces are fixed and the line along the Pathfinder suits you.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 10 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 directly over the existing surface, 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.
