Product Description
TH71805 Kia K5 Sedan 2021-2026 Rocker Kit, 4 Pieces, 2.25"-2.75" Tapered, Below the Door
TH71805 is a four-piece polished stainless steel rocker kit for the 2021-2026 Kia K5 4-door sedan. The note reads "Tapered Width - 2.25" - 2.75"" and "Installs below the door, on the rocker."
Lower Kit name, rocker placement
The part name is "Lower Kit," while the note puts the trim below the door, on the rocker. We go by the note, but because the two don't agree, compare the photos with your K5 and call 877-752-3811 if they don't match.
The taper
Which end of each K5 strip is the wider one isn't stated, so dry-fit the strips to see how they orient.
Material
The K5 kit tapers from 2.25" to 2.75" across four rocker strips cut in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, set below the doors with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says that tape will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the 2021-2026 Kia.
Wheel wells and sills
WQ71805 is a six-piece wheel well accent at 1.25". The record doesn't say it's cut to fit with this rocker kit, so dry fit both together if you're buying both. WS71805 is a six-piece sill set, "Face of sills only."
Pillar sets
PP71805 (four), PP71806 (six) and PP71807 (eight). The record doesn't say what the further pieces cover; compare the photos.
Rear trim
RD71805 is a 1" rear deck accent. RB71805, LP71805 and GC71805 complete the list. Check each listing for its finish.
Measure the rocker
Measure the area below the doors at the front and rear. Compare with 2.25" and 2.75".
Clean low
Road grime builds up beneath the doors. Scrub the rocker with soapy water and a soft brush, rinse and dry it, then wipe it down with isopropyl alcohol.
Guide and dry fit
Run painter's tape along the rocker as a straight guide. Tape each piece up against it and open both doors on that side.
Bond
Peel a few inches of liner, press, and work along. Finish with firm pressure.
Matching
Measure the first K5 strips from each wheel opening and hold those distances.
Before ordering
Confirm the year and the sedan body. Send a photo of the area under your doors to 877-752-3811 if you'd like us to check the fit.
Weather
Fit the K5 trim mild, dry and shaded, then keep it unwashed for a day.
Why polished 304
The rocker takes road spray, salt and grit. QAA uses polished 304 stainless steel for this kit, and its mirror surface rinses clean with mild soap. Tools: painter's tape, a tape measure, isopropyl alcohol, a soft brush and lint-free cloths.
What to send us
The year, a photo of the area under the doors and, if you are buying them, the wheel well or pillar listings you have in mind. We will check the whole lower side with you so the pieces work together.
Even from both ends
A tapered strip shows any difference in orientation, so make sure every wide end faces the way the photos show. Check from the front and the rear of the car before the final press.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower 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.
