Product Description
1995-1999 Chevy Cavalier Sedan Lower Rocker Trim: 8 Pieces at 2.5" (TH36130)
TH36130 fits the 4-door 1995-1999 Chevrolet Cavalier sedan. It's eight pieces of polished stainless steel, a Lower Kit 2.5" wide that "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width." The eight pieces are listed for the 4-door Cavalier sedan from 1995 through 1999.
Sedan, not coupe
Its linked twin, TH36120, shares the 2.5" width and span but has six pieces and a 2-door coupe tag. Four doors means this page.
What 2.5" looks like
Put a tape measure at the bottom of a door and read up to 2.5". That's the whole height of the steel. Run painter's tape along that line on each door and stand back across the street. If the thin bright band appeals, this is the kit. No taller kit is linked to this record.
Eight pieces
Two per door would be the simple reading, but the record doesn't confirm it. Match the pieces to your doors using the photos and label the liners with side and position.
Steel
This eight-piece Cavalier kit uses high-quality polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA.
Mounting
On the Cavalier, the eight pieces attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. QAA states the tape keeps hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the sedan's surface.
Checking the lowest inches
This strip lives at the bottom of the doors. Inspect that edge closely; repair chipped or bubbling paint and let it cure before installing.
Cleaning
- Wash with car soap, rinse, dry.
- Isopropyl alcohol along the bottom few inches of each door.
- Repeat until a clean cloth shows nothing.
Placing each piece
Flush the lower edge with the door bottom, liner on, and check the length. Peel a little, press, then work along while pulling the liner away. Finish with firm hand pressure.
Across the door gap
After the front and rear door pieces are done, the top edges should form one straight line across the gap. Look from a low angle at the front corner.
Finishing the Cavalier
Measure positions from the door edges and repeat them.
Clearance
Open and close each door once its piece is on.
Care
Give it a day before washing, then use mild soap.
Gather first
Car soap, isopropyl alcohol, a stack of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a marker for labels, a tape measure, and a plastic trim tool to press the edges. Pick a dry, mild day and keep the car in shade.
Long-term
Polished steel stays bright with gentle washing. Avoid scouring pads and harsh cleaners; a non-abrasive metal polish once in a while restores any dullness.
Help
Questions about fit or placement before you order? A photo and a call answer most of them.
If something doesn't match
During the dry run, a piece that is clearly too long or short for any door is a reason to stop. Leave the liners on and call us with the SKU below.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 8 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.
