Product Description
Murano 2003-2007 Side Molding Insert Kit, 1.5", Four Pieces (TH24590)
The 2003-2007 Nissan Murano has two 1.5" rocker-area kits linked together, and they go in different places. TH24590 is the Insert Kit: four pieces of polished stainless steel with the note "Side Molding." Its partner, TH24591, has six pieces and "Installs below the door."
Molding or rocker?
Same width, different zone. This kit is tied to the side molding; TH24591 sits on the rocker beneath the doors. The record doesn't say whether they're meant to go on together, so if you want both, call 877-752-3811 and ask how they line up.
How it sits on the molding
The data doesn't spell out the exact position on the molding. Use the product photos, and compare them with your Murano's moldings. Measure the molding face; a one-and-a-half-inch strip should suit what you see in the photos.
Fitment
Nissan Murano, 4-door SUV, 2003 through 2007.
Specs
- Insert Kit of four pieces
- 1.5" width
- Side Molding
- Polished 26-gauge 304 stainless, high quality, made in the USA
- Bonds to the Murano's molding as it is with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
For the Murano molding inserts, QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the SUV.
The real prep job: dressing removal
If anyone has ever used a trim shine product on your moldings, that's what will stop the tape bonding. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry, then wipe with isopropyl alcohol and a fresh cloth, repeating until the cloth shows no residue. Check that each molding is firmly attached along its length; the steel can only hold as well as the molding under it.
Matching pieces
The record doesn't assign the four pieces to positions. Use the photos and label them.
Placing the strip
Liner on, center the piece on the molding and sight along the SUV from the front corner. Open the doors to see that the ends clear. Peel a short length, press, recheck the line, and continue.

Side by side
Before you fit the last two pieces, compare where the finished ones begin and end so everything looks consistent.
Supplies
Soap, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a ruler are all you need.
Afterward
Wait a day before washing the Murano. Keep dressing products off the steel, and use only a non-abrasive polish.
Before ordering
Photograph a molding with a ruler across it. If you call, that and your model year are what we'll need.
What it changes
A one-and-a-half-inch line of polished steel along the side molding. Because the molding guides it, the line runs straight from front to back, and the painted door skins below stay untouched.
Install day
A mild afternoon or a warm garage is best for the tape; cold moldings make it slow to grab.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Insert 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.
