Product Description
69.625" Stretch Lincoln Town Car Limousine (2000-2011): 12-Piece Lower Rocker Kit, 4.5" (TH40693)
For a Lincoln Town Car limousine from 2000-2011 with a 69.625" stretch, TH40693 is the Lower Kit. It's twelve pieces of polished stainless steel, 4.5" wide. The width line repeats the figure, "69.625" extension Between wheel wells," and the note says the kit "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Four inches makes the difference
Its linked twin, TH40691, has the same twelve pieces, the same 4.5" width and the same placement, tagged 73.625". The gap between the two stretch figures is exactly four inches, and it's the only difference in the data. Check your conversion paperwork carefully. If the figure isn't listed, or the car was modified later, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.

TH40692 is a twelve-piece Upper Kit at 8.25" that hangs from the molding, tagged 70" stretch with a 73.625" note. Its stretch figures don't match this record's. The data doesn't say whether it's intended to go with this kit.
Steel
- Town Car limo steel: polished 304 stainless, 26 gauge.
- USA-made for the 69.625" stretch.
- Bonded to the limo's surface as it is with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
On this extended-stretch Town Car limousine, QAA says the tape under the twelve strips will hold for a lifetime without harming the Lincoln.
See the band
Tape a strip of painter's tape from the bottom of a door up four and a half inches. Step back far enough to see the whole side. That's the line the steel will follow.
Twelve pieces, labeled
The record has no layout. Use the photos to order the pieces and number the liners. On a long car this saves a lot of back-and-forth.
Clean the lower doors
Wash and dry the full length of the lower body, then wipe the band with isopropyl alcohol. Touch up chips and allow them to cure before going further.
Dry-fit, then commit
Hold every piece in place with painter's tape and sight down the side. Once the line is right, peel a few inches of liner, set the bottom edge on the door bottom, and press along as you peel. Finish with firm pressure.
Check
Open every door and check that each bottom edge clears. Look over the car from the front and rear. Wait a day to wash.
Two people
A helper holding the far end off the paint keeps long pieces straight and the tape clean.
Before ordering
Pull the conversion paperwork and find the stretch number. If it reads 69.625", this record matches. If you see 73.625", look at TH40691 instead. Anything else, or no paperwork at all, means a call to 877-752-3811 with photos of the car.
Even Town Car door gaps
After the first pieces are on, measure where each ends relative to the door gaps and duplicate those spots for the rest.
Weather and care
Pick a dry, mild day or work indoors. Later, wash the trim with mild soap and a soft mitt and dry it off.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower 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.
