Product Description
Lexus RX 2004-2009 Rocker Strip, 1.25", Two Pieces Below the Doors (TH24127)
The smallest kit in this Lexus family, TH24127 is just two pieces of polished stainless steel, 1.25" wide, filed as "Rocker Panel Trim, On the rocker" with the note "Installs below the door." It's listed for the 2004-2009 RX330, RX350 and RX400h.
Two strips for the RX
The listing has two pieces but doesn't say how they're arranged. Check the product photos to see where they go along each rocker.
Below, not on, the doors
The trim goes on the body under the doors, so it doesn't move when a door opens. You won't have a door edge to rest it on; set a straight guide line of painter's tape along the rocker, measured from its lower edge at several points.
Fitment rows
The first row lists the RX330, RX350 and RX400h for 2004 to 2009. Additional rows list the RX350 for 2007-2009 and the RX400h for 2006-2008 with no explanation. If your year is outside the narrower ranges, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Other RX options
TH24125 puts eight pieces on the doors (1.5" to 2" tapered, with trim crease). TH24126 is a four-piece 2" Insert Kit installed over existing side molding. The data doesn't say whether they're designed to be combined with this one.
Specs
- A pair of pieces for the rocker under the doors
- 1.25" width
- USA-made in high-quality polished 304 stainless, 26 gauge
- Goes onto the RX rocker as it is with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
On the RX330, RX350 and RX400h strips, QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime and leaves the Lexus unharmed.
Check the space
Measure the rocker under each door. You need about one and a quarter inches of smooth paint along the length the photos show. Gravel chips are common here; touch them up before installing.
Clean thoroughly
Rockers hold road film. Wash, rinse, dry, then go over the strip with isopropyl alcohol two or three times.
Placing a long, narrow piece
With the liner on, lay the piece against your tape guide and step back to check the line from the front of the SUV. Peel a few inches, press, and keep checking as you go.
Keeping the strips consistent
Measure each fitted piece's ends from the wheel openings to keep placement consistent.
Supplies
Get soap, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a tape measure ready.
Conditions and care
Warm and dry, about a day before washing, then rinse salt off the rockers through winter. Non-abrasive polish only.
Why so few pieces
Two pieces means fewer joints to line up than the eight-piece door kit, but each one is long. Have a helper hold the far end while you set the near end against the guide, so the middle doesn't touch down early.
Before ordering
Confirm your model and year against the fitment rows above, and measure the rocker's flat area. A quick call to 877-752-3811 settles any doubt.
Tip: pull the liner back gradually rather than all at once.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, On the rocker
- Unpack all 2 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.
