Product Description
Mercury Villager LS 1993-1998 Minivan Rocker Trim, Seven Pieces, 7.563"-8.625" (TH33630)
TH33630 is listed for the Mercury Villager minivan, LS trim, 1993-1998, tagged "3-door, Minivan, LS." It's seven pieces of polished stainless steel, a Full Kit that "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door," with a width range of 7.563-8.625".
LS only
The fitment names the LS. If your Villager is another trim, the record doesn't cover it; call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Reading the range
The record lists a little over seven and a half inches at one end and eight and five-eighths at the other. It doesn't explain whether the steel tapers, whether pieces differ, or why. On your van, measure from the molding to the door bottom at several points on each door. Readings inside the range fit the record; anything outside it is a reason to call first. The photos show the pieces' shapes.
Seven pieces on a three-door van
An odd count across a three-door body won't split evenly, and the record doesn't say where each piece goes. Lay them out, match them with the photos, and label the liners. If one piece has no obvious place, phone before installing.
Fitment
Mercury Villager, 3-door minivan, LS, 1993-1998. No linked parts.
Steel and tape
The Villager's seven tapered pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel from the USA, held over the existing surface of the 3-door minivan with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the Mercury.
Sliding door check
If your van has a sliding door, run it through its full travel with the piece taped in place (liner still on) before committing. The steel shouldn't contact anything along the track.
Prep for tall panels
Eight-plus inches of polished steel needs smooth, clean paint. Wash, dry, then isopropyl alcohol across the full band. Feel for grit and old repairs; fix them first.
Mounting
Set the top edge under the molding first, then press from the center outward as you pull the liner, to let air out at the edges. A helper holding the far end keeps the piece straight.
Matching
Measure positions as you go and keep them consistent as closely as the door layout allows.
Molding check
Each piece hangs from the molding at its top edge. Press along it on every door and reattach loose sections first; a gap there shows as a step in the steel.
What to send when you call
Your model year, trim, your molding-to-door-bottom readings, and a photo of the van's side. With the readings we can compare against the 7.563-8.625" range directly.
Supplies
Soap, isopropyl alcohol, plenty of cloths, painter's tape and a marker for labels, a tape measure, a plastic tool, and a second person to hold the taller pieces square.
Conditions and care
A dry, mild day. A day before washing. Soft cloths and non-abrasive polish afterward.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 7 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.
