Product Description
Lincoln Town Car Hearse 1999-2010 Lower Rocker Kit, Extended Rear Door & Dogleg, 8 Pieces, 4.5" (TH38686)
TH38686 is tagged "Hearse" for the 1999-2010 Lincoln Town Car, and its width line carries a detail you won't see on the sedan kits: "with extended rear door and 'dogleg'." It's eight pieces of polished stainless steel, a Lower Kit 4.5" tall from the bottom of the door up.
What the note tells you
The kit is meant for a hearse with an extended rear door and the section QAA calls the "dogleg." The record doesn't define the dogleg or show how pieces are shaped around it, so look closely at the product photos. Coachwork varies; if your hearse's rear door or the panel behind it looks different from the photos, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Years
1999-2010. A hearse from outside those years isn't listed on this record.
No linked kits
The record stands alone, with no sedan, limousine or upper kits attached for comparison.
Material
For the Town Car hearse, each piece is polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, attached over the existing finish with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without any damage to the surface.
Height
The note "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width" means coverage rises four and a half inches from the Town Car's lower door edge.
Eight pieces
The data doesn't map them to positions. Lay them out with the photos and identify the pieces meant for the extended rear door and the dogleg first, since those are the ones most specific to your car.
Dry-fit the unusual pieces first
Hold the rear door and dogleg pieces in place with painter's tape before any others. If they fit as the photos show, the front pieces will follow easily. If they don't, stop and call before peeling any liner.
Prep
Wash, dry and wipe the lower body with isopropyl alcohol. Check door bottoms and the panel behind the rear door for chips or corrosion and repair them.
Install
- Mark the top line at four and a half inches with painter's tape.
- Line up a piece, lift the liner's first inches and fix the end.
- Work along, pressing, as the backing peels away.
- Finish each hearse piece with hard, even pressure.
The extended door
Open the rear door fully after its piece is on and watch the edge through the whole swing.
Supplies
Have a tape measure, painter's tape, a marker, car soap, isopropyl alcohol and lint-free towels; work in dry, mild weather.
Care
No wash for a day; after that, mild soap only.
Town Car spacing
Repeat the finished Town Car run's positions on the second.
Before ordering
Confirm the year, the hearse body and the extended rear door, then compare the photos with the panel behind that door. A photo of the full side and a close-up of the rear door area, sent with your call to 877-752-3811, let us check the dogleg pieces before you buy.
A helper
On a long body, a second person checking the line from the bumper keeps it straight.

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.
