Product Description
Ford F-150 Regular Cab, 8' Bed, 2015-2020: Ten-Strip Stainless Molding Insert Kit (MI55309)
Long-bed Regular Cab owners, this is the kit tagged for you. MI55309 lists the 2015 through 2020 Ford F-150 Regular Cab, 2-door, with an 8' bed, and provides ten polished 304 stainless strips, 1.5 inches wide, for the existing body side moldings.
Three facts to confirm
- Year: 2015 to 2020. The title and row agree. Your records confirm it. Give MI55309 when you call 877-752-3811.
- Cab: tagged 2-door, Regular Cab.
- Bed: 8'. Measure along the bed floor from the front wall to the closed tailgate, or check the build paperwork.
If your truck differs on any of these, this row doesn't cover it. Call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with MI55309 and we'll help you find the right listing.
Why not the 12-piece kits?
The three insert kits with details on this sheet, MI55302, MI55305 and MI55316, are 12-piece kits tagged for the Super Cab or Crew Cab, with 6.5' or 5.5' beds. None is a Regular Cab kit, and none is tagged for the 8' bed. MI55308 and MI55313 appear by number only.
Material and attachment
26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, made in the USA. The strips mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and install directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling. We also handle general F-150 fit questions on that line. The record doesn't give each strip a position; the photos do.
Preparing a long-bed truck
Set up before you start so you aren't hunting for parts mid-job. Lay the strips out near the truck in the order the photos show and label the liners. Look at every molding for cracks, lifting ends or old adhesive, and fix anything you find. Then wash, dry and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Measure the flat face of one molding and compare it with 1.5 inches and with the photos, and call if the face looks narrower or the profile looks different.
Fitting
Dry-fit each strip with the liner on and mark its ends with painter's tape. A helper at the far end makes centering easier. Peel, place, and press firmly from end to end. Fit a few strips and sight down them from the front corner, then carry on with the rest. The Installation tab gives the temperature range for the tape; a dry, mild day is best.
Other parts tagged for 2-door pickups
GC55308 is a 1-piece gas door cover trim. MC55307 is a 2-piece mirror cover set, top half only, for non-painted mirrors. RT55309 shares this kit's number but is a different part: a 1-piece tailgate accent trim at 4 with no cut out. TGI55308 is a 1-piece tailgate insert trim at 0.5. All four are tagged for 2-door and 4-door pickups. Fifteen more parts are listed without details.
Care
Clean with mild soap, water and a soft cloth. Steel wool and abrasive pads scratch a polished finish, so keep them away, and let the tape settle before the first wash. Questions? 877-752-3811.

Installation tips: Body Molding Insert Trim Kit
- Unpack all 10 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.
