Product Description
1995-1997 Town Car 70" Stretch Limo Rocker Trim, 14 Pieces with Two-Piece Center Stretch (TH35689)
TH35689 is the fourteen-piece kit for the 1995-1997 Lincoln Town Car "Limousine, 70" Stretch." It's polished stainless steel, a Full Kit tapering from 8.125" to 8.563". The width note is unusually detailed: "Full Length, Includes coverage from the wheel well to the bumper on the front and rear, center stretch is two pieces." The span note: "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door."
The center stretch
This is the only kit in the group whose record mentions the stretch section itself. Two of the fourteen pieces are for the center stretch; the rest, by the notes, cover the doors and the sections from the wheel wells to the bumpers. The record doesn't say how the remaining twelve divide. Lay everything out, find the two center pieces using the photos, and label them.
Compared with TH35682
TH35682 is also tagged for the 70" stretch but has twelve pieces, a slightly different lower width figure (8.063"), and no center-stretch note. If you're deciding between them, call 877-752-3811 with photos of your limousine's side.
Sedan kits on the sheet
TH35680 and TH35681 are tagged 4-door sedan and aren't meant for the stretch.
Height
Measure from the molding to the bottom edge at several points, including along the stretch. Readings in the 8.125"-8.563" range agree with the record.
Material and tape
For the 70" stretch Town Car limousine, the fourteen pieces are USA-made, polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, held over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the limousine.
Lining up the stretch pieces
The two center pieces need to meet each other and the door pieces at either end in a straight line. Fit the door pieces first, then dry-fit the center pair between them, adjusting until both edges run true before peeling either liner.
Preparing the side
Wash, dry and alcohol-wipe the full length. Check the area where the stretch section meets the original body for edges or old repairs.
Applying
Peel a few inches, place, press outward, pull the liner as you go.
Care
The Town Car waits a day for washing.
Order of work on a long side
- Front door piece, to set the height line.
- Rear door piece.
- The two center stretch pieces between them.
- Front and rear end sections, out to the bumpers.
- Use your measurements to keep every Town Car piece consistent.
The molding
Press along it from bumper to bumper and secure loose sections first; every piece follows it.
People and time
Plan on two people and a dry, mild day in lasting shade. Fourteen tall pieces on a long body take a while, and rushing is how pieces end up crooked.
After a day, wash with mild soap and a soft towel. A non-abrasive metal polish now and then keeps all fourteen pieces bright.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 14 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.
