Product Description
Chrysler Town & Country 1996-2000 Minivan Full Rocker Kit, 8 Pieces, 8.5"-9" Tapered (TH35790)
TH35790 is the full-height kit for the 1996-2000 Chrysler Town & Country 4-door minivan. It's eight pieces of polished stainless steel, tapering from 8.5" to 9", and it "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door." The title writes the years as "96-00."
Full height versus a 4" band
Two linked kits for the same van stop much higher. TH35791 (tagged 4-door minivan) and TH35792 (tagged 4-door minivan, LXI) are both eight-piece Upper Kits at 4", running from the bottom of the molding down to that width and no further. This kit keeps going to the door bottom. If you want the lower doors fully covered, this is the one; if you prefer a narrower stripe with paint below it, look at those.
Measure the span
On each door, measure from the underside of the molding to the bottom edge, front and rear. Readings between 8.5" and 9" match the record. The record doesn't say which end of each piece is the taller one, so a dry fit with the liner on is the way to see the taper's direction.
Sliding door check
If your van has a sliding door, before you peel the liner on any piece near a sliding door, tape it in place and run the door through its full travel. The steel must clear the track.
Eight pieces
No layout is given. Lay them out, compare with the photos, and number each liner.
Material
The 1996-2000 Town & Country takes eight tapered strips of USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, carried between molding and door bottom on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the minivan.
Nine inches of mirror
A band this tall reflects whatever the panel does. Small dents and waves become obvious. Inspect the lower doors with a light held low and fix what you can first.
Cleaning
Wash, dry, then isopropyl alcohol over the entire band, several passes. Secure any loose molding, since that's where every piece's top edge sits.
Placing tall pieces
Have someone hold the bottom corners clear while you seat the top edge under the molding. Press from the middle outward as the liner comes off to push air toward the edges.
Afterward
Run every door again, front and sliding, then leave the van a day before washing.
Town & Country spacing
Measure each finished piece's distance from the door edges and keep later pieces consistent. Where the minivan's door layout differs along its length, compare against the photos.
Help with ordering
If you can't decide between full height and the 4" kits, call 877-752-3811 with your molding-to-bottom readings and a profile photo.
Care
Wash by hand with mild soap and a soft towel. A non-abrasive metal polish now and then keeps the tall panels bright.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full 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.
