Product Description
TH55659 Lincoln Navigator L 2015-2017 Upper Kit, 4 Pieces, 5" From the Molding Down
TH55659 is the Navigator L's Upper Kit. Its fitment line reads "4-door, SUV, L" for 2015-2017, and its four polished stainless steel pieces span "from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width," 5".
A plainer note than its standard-body partner
The standard-body kit, TH55655, is noted "With top and bottom crease, does not fit the "L" version." This record's only note is the span. It doesn't mention a crease, and it doesn't restate the L restriction in a note; the L appears in the fitment line. The record doesn't explain the difference in wording, so compare the photos of both kits.
The L's two rocker options
- This kit: the 5" band below the molding
- TH55658: trim on the retractable step bar, 3.375", noted for the L
Order either one or both.
Polished 304
For the 2015-2017 Navigator L, QAA forms four 5" strips in the USA out of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, carried under the molding on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime with no harm to the Lincoln.
Confirming the L
Because standard and L kits share a width, the body is the deciding fact. The registration or window sticker will name it. If the paperwork isn't handy, call 877-752-3811 with a side photo.
Wheel wells
WQ55655 is listed as not fitting the L. If you'd like wheel well trim on your L, ask us what's available.
Setting out the band
With painter's tape, mark the bottom of the molding and a second line 5" below it along all four doors. Look along the side. If anything sits inside that band, check it against the photos.
Ready the paint
Soap, rinse and dry below the molding, especially the seam where water hides. Then wipe with isopropyl alcohol.
Hang, check, press
Hold each piece with painter's tape, sight along the top edges, and open each door. Once all four look right, peel the liner in short sections and press each piece down from front to back.
Lining up the step trim
Measure the finished Navigator run at each door gap and repeat it on the second.
After
A day without washing, then mild soap and a soft cloth.
Rear and grille parts
The linked list also includes SG55655, a "Logo Surround" grille accent; LB55655, noted "Just under the rear window"; LP55655, a license plate bezel; and BI55655, a four-piece rear bumper "Insert set." These are listed for the 4-door SUV without saying whether the L is included, so ask us before pairing them with this kit. Check each listing for its finish.
Supplies and timing
Painter's tape, a tape measure, isopropyl alcohol and clean cloths cover the job. Choose a mild, dry day out of direct sun, and allow time for a full dry fit before any liner comes off. A helper makes it easier to hold each piece on the line while the other person checks it from a few steps back.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper 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.
