Product Description
Buick LeSabre 1997-1999 Upper Rocker Strip, Full Length, 10 Pieces, 3" (TH37567)
Want a narrow line of polished steel that runs the whole side of your 1997-1999 LeSabre sedan, not only the doors? That's what TH37567's notes describe. It's a ten-piece Rocker Panel Trim Upper Kit, 3" wide, marked "Full Length, Includes coverage from the wheel well to the bumper on the front and rear."
Reading the two notes
One note sets the height: "Spans from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width." The steel hangs three inches below the molding. The other sets the length: front and rear sections from the wheel wells to the bumpers are included along with the doors. That explains why the count is higher than on the Full Kit.
The other LeSabre kit
TH37564 is linked as a six-piece Full Kit tapering 8.125" to 8.625", filling the space from the molding to the bottom of the door. If you want the whole lower door covered, that's the one. If you want a slim accent below the molding along the length of the car, stay here. The data doesn't present them as a pair.
Ten pieces
With pieces on the fenders, doors and quarter panels, organization matters. Lay them out in order from front to rear, check the photos, and write a position on each liner with painter's tape. Fit the door pieces first; they set the line the end pieces follow.
Keeping the line straight
Since the top edge rides the bottom of the molding, the molding is your guide. Where a gap between panels breaks it, sight down the side of the car before pressing the next piece, so the line carries straight across.
What it's made of
The ten full-length LeSabre strips are USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape; QAA says it will hold for a lifetime without harming the Buick.
Preparation
Wash below the molding along the whole side, including behind the wheel wells and ahead of the rear bumper, where road grime builds up. Dry well, then wipe with isopropyl alcohol.
Near the wheel wells
The end pieces sit close to the wheel openings. Dry-fit those with special care and keep the tape clear of any edge where it would hang in the air.
Afterward
Swing each door and check the piece edges at the gaps. Wait a day before washing; then mild soap only.
Questions
If your molding sits differently than the photos show, call 877-752-3811 with a profile picture before ordering.
Supplies
Painter's tape and a marker, a tape measure, car soap, isopropyl alcohol and a few clean microfiber towels. A plastic trim tool helps press the strip right up under the molding. Work out of direct sun on a dry, mild day.
Before ordering
Check the year is 1997, 1998 or 1999 and that the car is the four-door LeSabre sedan. Then decide between the three-inch full-length strip here and the taller door-only Full Kit. If your car has had body repairs that changed the molding, mention that when you call.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper 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.
