Product Description
Ford F-150 Crew Cab With 5.5' Bed, 2015-2020: Stainless Molding Insert Trim Kit, 12 Pieces (MI55316)
If your F-150 is a 2015 to 2020 Crew Cab with the shorter 5.5' bed, MI55316 is the insert kit tagged for it. The sheet shows its 6.5' bed counterpart, MI55305, with identical piece count and width. Both are twelve polished 304 stainless strips at 1.5 inches; only the bed tag differs.
The fitment row
Ford F-150, 2015 through 2020, 4-door, pickup truck, Crew Cab, 5.5' bed. The title gives the same years. Confirm the bed with a tape measure along the floor, front wall to closed tailgate, or from the build paperwork. If you're between answers, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention MI55316.
Specifications
Twelve strips. 1.5 inches wide. 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, made in the USA. Mounted with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling. The record doesn't say where each strip goes; the photos show the layout.
Thinking about the rocker kit?
TH55302 is shown on this sheet: a 12-piece rocker panel upper kit at 4.5 that spans from the bottom of the molding down to the specified width. It's tagged for the Super Cab with a 6.5 bed (the foot mark is missing in its tag), so it isn't tagged for your Crew Cab. TH55316 is cross-listed with this kit by number only, so its tags aren't shown here; check its own page if you're planning rocker trim as well.
Labeling saves time
Twelve similar strips can get mixed up quickly. Number each liner with its position before you peel anything, and keep the photos open on a phone as you work.
Before installation
The strips sit on the moldings already on the truck, so look at each molding. Cracked or lifting moldings should be fixed and old adhesive removed. Measure the flat face of one and compare it with 1.5 inches and the photos.
Installation
Arrange the twelve strips as the gallery shows, then put a number on each liner. Wash, dry and wipe the moldings with rubbing alcohol, letting it flash off. Dry-fit each strip with its liner on and mark the ends with painter's tape. Peel and press firmly from end to end. When a run of strips is done, sight down it from the front corner, then continue with the rest. A dry, mild day is best; the Installation tab gives the temperature range.

Installation tips: Body Molding Insert Trim Kit
- Unpack all 12 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.
