Product Description
Lincoln Town Car L-Stretch 2003-2010 Pillar Post Trim, Six Covers (PP43688)
PP43688 is a six-cover pillar set for the Lincoln Town Car L-Stretch, listed for 2003 through 2010, and its single fitment row is tagged 4-door, L-Stretch. The title names L-Stretch as well, so the restriction appears in both places. The covers are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, and the set is $67.99.
Take the tag at face value. The row names a four-door Town Car with the L-Stretch designation, and no other body. The record doesn't describe what L-Stretch means for the posts, and we won't fill that in. If your paperwork doesn't show L-Stretch, or you can't tell, please call before ordering.
This listing has no linked sets, so there's no four- or eight-cover alternative to compare here. It also has no notes, post names or widths. The gallery is the guide: hold each of the six photos up to your Town Car's posts and make sure the shapes match the posts you want dressed in stainless.
Eight model years sit in that row. Your Lincoln's year should fall between 2003 and 2010 in your records.
If anything is unclear, ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811. Quote PP43688, your year and the full body name on your paperwork, and we'll go over the listing with you.
The six covers are for appearance only. They lie on posts beside the side glass and leave the doors, windows and seals working as before. Type 304 stainless keeps corrosion away by virtue of its alloy rather than a plated coat.
Each mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape that bonds to whatever paint or trim the posts have today. No drilling, no trim removal. You'll find the temperature range and cure time on the Installation tab.
Get each post properly clean, because the tape holds only as well as the surface allows. Remove wax and polish, and repair paint that is chalking, crazing or lifting. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry completely, and wipe with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, refolding until a fresh face comes up clean. Check for dents and old repairs while you're there.
Collect car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a stack of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. A helper standing a few paces away will make each alignment easier to judge.
Wait for shade and a calm, dry day. Lay the six beside the gallery to check each is present and undamaged, and call us if not. Mark each cover's post on painter's tape from its photo. Liner on, hold a cover to that post, slide it until the margin is even and outline it. Peel, place it in the outline and press firmly along its length and both edges. Step back and compare before fitting the next.
A Town Car cover that rocks or won't close up at an edge should keep its liner while you phone 877-752-3811. Once cured, wash the six with car soap and dry with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 6 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.
