Product Description
TH55309: 10-Piece 4.5" Upper Kit for the 2015-2020 F-150 Regular Cab Long Bed (8.1')
TH55309 is ten pieces of polished stainless steel for the 2015-2020 Ford F-150 2-door Regular Cab pickup, listed with the 8.1' bed. Like the other Upper Kits in this family, it is 4.5" wide and spans "from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width."
8.1' here, 8' on the insert
The linked insert kit MI55309, ten pieces at 1.5" and noted "Upper," lists the Regular Cab with an 8' bed. This record says 8.1'. The catalog doesn't explain whether those are the same bed written two ways. Call 877-752-3811 before ordering if the figure on your build sheet doesn't clearly match.
Its shorter-bed twin
TH55308 is the Regular Cab kit for the 6.6' bed, with the same width and piece count. The bed is the only difference in the data, so measure yours.
RT55309, same number, different part
RT55309 shares this kit's number but is a one-piece tailgate accent trim, 4" wide, noted "No cut out," listed for both 2-door and 4-door pickups. It's not part of this rocker kit; it's a separate listing. Read it for its own finish and fit.
What it's built from
QAA makes the ten Regular Cab 8.1' bed pieces in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel. They bond below the molding with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the F-150.
A long side to cover
The record doesn't give piece lengths or say how the ten are divided between the door and the bed. With a long bed, the rear group of pieces matters most for a straight line, so spend more time on the dry fit along the bed side.
- Find the molding's lower edge and tape a guide line 4.5" below it
- Lay out the ten F-150 pieces in order using the photos.
- Label each liner with its position
Clean first
Wash below the molding from the front fender back to the tail, rinse, dry, and wipe the whole band with isopropyl alcohol.
Bond in order
Start at the door, set the first piece, and work toward the back. Peel a few inches of liner at a time and press firmly. Sight along the side after each piece to keep the line true.
Conditions
Work in shade on a mild, dry day, and keep the truck out of the rain and the wash for a day.
Other parts for the pickup
GC55308 (gas door cover) and TGI55308 (tailgate insert, 0.5") are listed for 2-door and 4-door pickups. Check each listing for its finish.
Before you call
Have the model year, the bed length from your build sheet or a tape measure, and a side photo ready. With those, we can check the 8.1' listing against your truck and the MI55309 inserts if you want both. It usually takes a few minutes, and it saves sending back a kit that fits a different bed.
Call 877-752-3811 with your bed length. Quality Automotive Trims, SKU TH55309, UPC 691821335435.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper 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.
