Product Description
Buick Skylark Coupe 1992-1995 Upper Rocker Kit, Six Pieces, 4.875" (TH32510)
TH32510 is the coupe version of a two-kit Skylark pair. It's six pieces of polished stainless steel, an Upper Kit 4.875" wide, for the 1992-1995 Buick Skylark 2-door coupe. The span note reads "Spans from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width," so the steel hangs from the molding and reaches down four and seven-eighths inches.
Coupe or sedan
The linked TH32540 is the same kit type and width for the Skylark 4-door sedan, with eight pieces instead of six. Body style is the only difference the tags show, so match the listing to your doors: two doors, this one; four doors, TH32540.
Picturing the line
With a tape measure held at the underside of the molding, read down to just under five inches (4.875") and press a short strip of painter's tape there. Do it at the front, middle and rear of the door and once on the rear quarter if the photos show pieces there. Now look at the car from ten feet away. That tape line is the lower edge of the finished trim.
Fitment
Buick Skylark, 2-door coupe, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995.
Specification
- Upper Kit with six pieces
- 4.875" down from the molding
- Polished 304 stainless steel in 26 gauge, high quality
- Made in the USA for the Skylark
- Goes on over the Skylark's surface using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
That tape, QAA says, will hold the six Skylark coupe strips for a lifetime and leave the Buick's paint undamaged.
Six pieces, two doors
Six doesn't map neatly onto two doors, and the record doesn't say whether some pieces go beyond them. Open the package, compare each piece with the product photos, and write its position on the liner before any cleaning starts.
Molding check
An Upper Kit is only as straight as the molding it hangs from. Run your fingers along the molding's lower lip; reattach any section that has lifted.
Cleaning the band
Car soap, rinse, dry. Then isopropyl alcohol across the 4.875" band below the molding, twice, with clean cloths. The molding's lower edge traps wax; work a cloth corner along it.
Hanging each piece
Butt the top edge to the molding with the liner on and check the bottom from a step back. Peel the first few inches, set it, then continue, pressing firmly as you go. Swing the door after each piece.
Reading evenly from the front
Measuring from the door gap, keep each piece's position consistent so the car reads evenly from the front.
Tools
Soap, alcohol, cloths, painter's tape, a tape measure, and a plastic tool.
If something looks off
Stop before you peel. A piece that won't sit flat against the panel, an end that overhangs the door gap, or a bottom edge that wanders from your tape line are all easier to sort out with the liner still on. Take a photo and call us; we'd rather look at it with you than have you force a fit.
Timing
Mild, dry weather, a couple of hours, and a day before washing.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper Kit
- Unpack all 6 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.
