Product Description
Ford F-250 & F-350 Super Duty Crew Cab Short Bed 2008-2009 Molding Insert Kit, 1.313 Inch Stainless (MI48324)
MI48324 is a short, simple kit: four polished 304 stainless strips at 1.313 inches wide. It's listed for the Ford F-250 & F-350 Super Duty Crew Cab, 4-door, short bed, for two model years only, 2008 and 2009. The title and the row agree on those years.
Two years, so check yours
The range is short, which makes the year check the first thing to do. The MI48324 row covers 2008 and 2009 Super Duty trucks only. A 2008 or 2009 Super Duty Crew Cab short bed is the listed fit. If your truck is newer than 2009 or older than 2008, this row doesn't cover it, and Quality Automotive Trims can help you look for another listing at 877-752-3811. How to prep the Super Duty moldings is on the Installation tab.
A similar listing to be aware of
Our catalog also has another 4-piece Super Duty Crew Cab short bed insert kit at the same 1.313 width, tagged "NO Molding" and listed for one more model year. The two records aren't cross-referenced and neither explains how they differ beyond those tags. If you're choosing between them, compare the photos and call with this SKU before ordering. We've flagged the pair for review.
Sizing
Measure the flat face of one of your moldings and compare it with 1.313 inches and with the photos, which show how a strip sits on the molding. The record doesn't say where each of the four strips goes, so the photos also serve as the layout guide.
Material, finish, mounting
26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished, made in the USA. The strips mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and go directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling. Anything about MI48324 that needs clearing up? Ring 877-752-3811 and we'll go through it.
Installing four strips
Inspect each molding: cracks, lifting ends and old adhesive should be dealt with first, because tape grips only a sound, clean surface. Wash, dry, and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Write positions on the four liners using the photos. Dry-fit each strip with its liner on, center it, and mark both ends with painter's tape. Peel, place, and press firmly from end to end. Look along the truck after the strips are on. The Installation tab lists the temperature range; a dry, mild day is best.
Why four pieces
Four strips means four placements to get right, which keeps the job manageable in an afternoon. The trade-off is that each strip's position matters, so take time with the photos and the liner labels rather than guessing which one goes where. A helper holding the far end during the dry fit makes centering easier.

Installation tips: Body Molding Insert Trim Kit
- Unpack all 4 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.
