Product Description
Chevrolet Silverado 2000-2002 Extended Cab Long Bed Upper Rocker Trim, Cut to Molding, 8 Pieces, 5.5" (TH40189)
TH40189 is tagged "4-door, Pickup Truck, Extended Cab, Long Bed" for the 2000-2002 Chevrolet Silverado. Eight pieces of polished stainless steel form a 5.5" Upper Kit, and the width line carries the note "cut to molding" beside the usual "Spans from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width."
The two notes together
One note tells you the steel hangs five and a half inches below the molding. The other, "cut to molding," isn't explained anywhere in the record. We'll leave it as written rather than guess what it means for your truck. The product photos show the shape of each piece; if they don't match the molding on your Silverado, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Short bed partner
TH40187 is identical in count, width and notes, tagged for the short bed. The record doesn't describe what the bed changes, so pick the one for your truck.
Door sill trim
DS40187, a four-piece door sill trim tagged extended cab, is linked. See its listing for finish and fit.
Four doors on the tag
Count yours. If your extended cab has a different number, send a side photo with your call.
Polished 304
The 2000-2002 Silverado Extended Cab long bed gets eight 5.5" pieces cut to the molding from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel in a USA shop, fixed below it with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says that tape will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the Chevrolet.
Room below the molding
Measure from the underside of the molding to the bottom of each door. You'll need at least five and a half inches for the band to sit fully on the door.
Eight pieces
No layout in the data. Lay them out using the photos, and label every liner before starting.
Molding first
The pieces depend on the molding for their top line. Re-secure any loose clip or lifting end before installing.
Clean-up
Soap, rinse, dry, then isopropyl alcohol across the band. Repair chalky or flaking paint in that area.
Laying each piece
- Tape it in place and compare with the photos.
- Peel back a few inches of liner and set the end under the molding.
- Keep pressing the Silverado piece as the liner comes off.
- Press firmly to finish.

Doors

Supplies
Tape measure, painter's tape, a marker, car soap, isopropyl alcohol, towels; a dry, mild day.
Care and matching
Wait a day to wash. Keep piece positions consistent along the truck.
Preview
Painter's tape five and a half inches below the molding on the front door shows exactly where the lower edge will land and how much paint stays visible below it.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper 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.
