Product Description
Honda Fit 2009-2013 Rocker Strip Pair, 1.25" Stainless (TH29220)
QAA catalogs two rocker kits for the 2009-2013 Honda Fit hatchback, and they are very different parts. TH29220 is the narrow one: two pieces of polished stainless steel, 1.25" wide, listed as "Rocker Panel Trim, On the rocker" with the note "Installs below the door." Its linked partner, TH29221, is an eight-piece Lower Kit at 3.125" that goes on the doors themselves. Knowing which you want is the first decision.
TH29220 or TH29221?
Pick TH29220 if you want a slim bright line on the body below the door openings, two pieces in total. Pick TH29221 if you want a much taller band starting at the bottom of the doors and rising 3.125", with a trim crease noted in its record. The two cover different areas, so the listing doesn't present one as a substitute for the other. If you're thinking of both, call 877-752-3811 and ask how they sit together.
Fit details
Honda Fit, 4-door hatchback, model years 2009 to 2013. That single row is the whole fitment.
The parts list
- A pair of rocker pieces for the Fit
- 1.25" width
- 26-gauge polished 304 stainless, high quality
- Fit trim built in America
- Goes on the Fit's rocker as it is with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
For the two Fit strips, QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime and leaves the Honda hatchback unharmed.
Marking the height
With no door edge to follow, the strip's position is yours to set. Polished steel makes any tilt easy to spot. Lay painter's tape where the top edge should run and measure from a fixed body line at the front, middle and rear before each strip goes on.
Prep without shortcuts
Wash, dry, and wipe the sill with isopropyl alcohol until the cloth stays clean. Remove any tar or old adhesive first. Work in the shade so the alcohol doesn't flash before it lifts the film.
Pressing it home
Start at the front with a short length of liner peeled back, align the end, then feed the rest along your guide while pressing firmly. Rub the whole length with a cloth once it's down.
Other trim for the Fit

WQ29220 wheel well trim is tagged Sport Model. Check each listing for its finish.
Upkeep
Let the tape sit a day before washing. A quick rinse after slushy drives keeps the sill clean.
Weather and timing
Choose a dry day that is neither cold nor scorching, and plan on an unhurried hour for the pair. Tape bonds best when the panel and the steel are both at a comfortable room-like temperature, so let parts stored in a cold garage warm up first.

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.
