Product Description
1995-1997 Lincoln Town Car Sedan Full-Length Rocker Kit, Twelve Pieces, 8.063"-8.563" (TH35681)
TH35681 is the full-length sedan kit for the 1995-1997 Lincoln Town Car. It has twelve pieces of polished stainless steel, tapers from 8.063" to 8.563", and carries the notes "Full Length, Includes coverage from the wheel well to the bumper on the front and rear" and "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door." The fitment tag is 4-door sedan.
A sedan kit with a limousine look-alike
Here's something to be careful about. The linked TH35682 has the same twelve pieces, the same taper and the same notes, but it's tagged "Limousine, 70" Stretch." On paper the two are identical apart from that tag. The record doesn't explain how a twelve-piece set covers both a sedan and a stretched limousine. Order by your body tag: sedan owners, this page. If you're unsure, call 877-752-3811.
The rest of the group
TH35680 is the eight-piece sedan kit without the full-length note. TH35689 is a fourteen-piece 70" stretch limousine kit whose note says "center stretch is two pieces."
Measuring
Check the molding-to-bottom distance along the doors and at the front and rear sections near the bumpers. If the readings sit between 8.063" and 8.563", they agree with the record.
The metal and the bond
The full-length 1995-1997 Town Car kit is twelve wide pieces cut in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, carried wheel well to bumper between molding and door bottom on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harm.
Laying out twelve pieces
No positions are given. Arrange the pieces front to rear, using the photos. A strip of painter's tape on each liner with "L1, L2..." keeps them straight during the job.
Where to start
The front door sets the line for everything else on that side. Fit it first, then move rearward through the doors, then fit the front and rear end sections to meet them.
Surface
Wash the whole lower side, bumper to bumper, and wipe with isopropyl alcohol. Look carefully at the panels around the wheel openings, which take chips, and repair before installing. Press along the molding and secure anything loose.
Every piece
Liner on for a test fit, then peel a short length, place, press, and pull the liner while smoothing.
Afterward
Let the Town Car trim go a day before washing.
Town Car end sections
As you go, measure how far each end section sits from its wheel opening and keep it consistent. Look along the car from the front corners to compare.
Help and patience
Twelve tall pieces take time. A second person to hold the far end clear of the paint makes each piece easier to place straight, and keeping the unused pieces in labeled order avoids mix-ups.
Weather
Choose a dry, mild day and keep the car in the shade while you work.
Wash gently after the first day, with mild soap and soft cloths.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full 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.
