Product Description
Lincoln MKX 2016-2018 Rear Accent Strip Between the Marker Lights, 1-Piece Stainless (ML56660)
ML56660 is a single polished stainless strip for the 2016-2018 Lincoln MKX, 4-door SUV. Its note gives both location and size: it "Spans between rear Marker Lights," and it measures 1" in width by 30.836" in length. With both a width and a length on the listing, you can check fit with a tape measure before you order, which is the best kind of fitment check there is.
Measure your MKX
Here's how to use those numbers. With the product photos open, find the area the strip spans on your SUV. Run a tape measure across it between the rear marker lights and compare with 30.836 inches. Then look at the height of the surface the strip will sit on and compare with 1 inch. If both line up with what you see in the photos, you're set. If the space looks noticeably different, or you can't tell where the strip is meant to sit, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with ML56660 before ordering.

Installing one long strip
A long single piece needs a helper and a plan. Wash the area, dry it, and wipe it with rubbing alcohol, letting it flash off fully. Hold the strip in place with the liner on and check that it sits evenly between the two marker lights; measure from each light to the near end so the gaps match. Run a line of painter's tape along one edge as a guide, and put a mark at each end. Peel back a short section of liner at one end, tack it to its mark, and have your helper hold the other end up and away from the surface. Then pull the liner gradually while you press along the strip toward the far end, checking against the painter's tape line as you go. Finish by pressing the full length firmly. A dry day inside the Installation tab's temperature range is best.
Why a straight line matters here
Any wander in a strip this long shows from behind the vehicle. Take the time to sight along it before the final press; foam tape is forgiving for a few moments after contact but much less so once it has been pressed hard.

Care: mild soap, water and a soft cloth. Skip abrasive pads and steel wool.

Installation tips: Accent Trim
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
