Product Description
Ford Five Hundred SEL & Limited 2005-2007 Molding Insert Kit, 1", 4 Pieces (TH45370)
TH45370 is a set of four polished stainless steel inserts, 1" wide, for the side molding on the Ford Five Hundred four-door sedan from 2005 to 2007. The fitment is narrower than most: the tag reads "4-door, Sedan, SEL, Limited only."
Trim level is part of the fit
Because the record limits the kit to the SEL and Limited, the first thing to check is your trim level. If your Five Hundred is a different trim, or you aren't sure which one you have, call before ordering. Send the VIN or a photo of the side of the car to 877-752-3811.
On the molding
The only placement note is "Side Molding." An insert kit sits on the existing molding strip, so the strip must be on the car and in good condition, and its face should be about 1" wide. Measure on a front and a rear door.
Linked part
The record links SGB45490, a grille accent for the four-door sedan. No other Five Hundred rocker kit is linked to this record.
What it's made of
The Five Hundred's four 1" inserts are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA. They bond to the existing side molding with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Ford.
Molding prep
Wash the strips with soapy water, rinse, and dry. Then wipe the face of each strip with isopropyl alcohol until the cloth comes back clean. If any molding section is loose or lifting, fix it before installing.
Four inserts
The record doesn't assign pieces to doors. Compare them to the product photos and mark each liner with its position.
Placing the inserts
- Hold each Five Hundred insert on its strip with painter's tape.
- Check that it's centered and the ends sit where you want.
- Peel a short section of liner, press that end down, and continue along the strip.
- Press firmly over the full length.
One line across the doors
The front and rear inserts should meet the door gap at the same height. Sight down the side before pressing the second one for good.
Afterward
Open the doors to check clearance. Wait a day before washing, and from then on use mild soap and a soft cloth.
Install day
Install the Five Hundred inserts in dry, mild weather or a garage, parts at room temperature.
Before ordering
Five Hundred sedan, 2005-2007, SEL or Limited, molding present and about 1" wide. If all four match, this is the record for your car. If one doesn't, call 877-752-3811.
Mock-up
A strip of painter's tape on the molding shows the finished line before you commit.
Why the trim tag matters
An insert has to match the strip it sits on. The record only promises that match for the SEL and Limited, so that tag is the line we hold to. If your car has been fitted with molding from another trim, mention it when you call so we can check the width against the 1" inserts.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Insert Kit
- Unpack all 4 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.
