Product Description
Ford Crown Victoria 1992-1997 Upper Rocker Kit, Full Length, 12 Pieces at 4.125" (TH32359)
TH32359 is a full-length Upper Kit for the 1992-1997 Ford Crown Victoria sedan: twelve pieces of polished stainless steel, 4.125" wide. Two notes define it: "Full Length, Includes coverage from the wheel well to the bumper on the front and rear" and "Spans from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width." So the steel hangs from the molding, reaches down just over four inches, and continues past the doors to both bumpers.
Upper Kit or Full Kit?
The linked TH32364 is the other Crown Victoria option: eight pieces at 9.25", a Full Kit from the molding to the bottom of the door, with no full-length note. Compare the two this way:
- TH32359: 4.125" down from the molding, full length to the bumpers, twelve pieces
- TH32364: 9.25" from molding to door bottom, eight pieces, no full-length note
The record doesn't say whether they're meant to be combined. Call 877-752-3811 if you're thinking about it.
Where it stops
Measure down 4.125" from the bottom of the molding on a door and mark the spot. That's where the lower edge of the steel will run. Look at the result along the whole side, since this kit continues beyond the doors.
Fitment
Ford Crown Victoria, 4-door sedan, 1992-1997.
Material
The twelve Crown Victoria pieces are USA-made, polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, fitted over the existing finish with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the paint.
Twelve pieces, front to back
Positions aren't listed. Lay the pieces out in order, end pieces at the ends and door pieces in between, using the photos as the map. Label the liners.
The molding is everything
Every piece hangs from it, including those beyond the doors. Check that it is tight and straight along its full run.
Prep the full side
Clean the areas ahead of the front wheels and behind the rear wheels as thoroughly as the doors. Those spots collect tar. Wash, then isopropyl alcohol, until clean.
Mounting
Do the doors first, then the end pieces, matching each top edge to the molding. Check joints from a step back before pressing. Close each door after its piece.
Pillar trim
QAA links PP32361, eight pillar post pieces for the 1992-1997 Crown Victoria sedan; its own listing gives its finish.
Matching the sides
On a full-length kit there are more joints to line up. As you go, measure where each joint falls relative to the wheel openings and door gaps, and keep those distances consistent. Compare from the front bumper.
Supplies
Car soap, isopropyl alcohol, a good supply of clean cloths, painter's tape and a marker, a tape measure, a plastic scraper for tar, and a helper for the longer pieces.
Conditions
A mild, dry afternoon; give the tape a day before the first wash.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper Kit
- Unpack all 12 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.
