Product Description
Jaguar XF 2009-2015 Side Molding Insert Kit, Tapered 1.5" to 0.75", Six Pieces (TH29099)
TH29099 is a six-piece polished stainless steel Insert Kit for the 2009-2015 Jaguar XF sedan, with the note "Side Molding." The record lists the width as tapering from 1.5" to 0.75", written wide end first.
A tapered molding insert
The width halves from one end of the run to the other. The listing doesn't say which end is wider on the car or how the six pieces share the taper. Lay them out, measure each end, and compare with the product photos before you begin. If it isn't clear, call 877-752-3811.
Molding, not rocker
The linked TH29098 is the rocker option: two pieces, 1.25", installed below the door. This kit is tied to the side molding instead. The data doesn't describe using both; ask first.
Fitment
Jaguar XF, 4-door sedan, 2009 to 2015.
Specs
- Six pieces, Insert Kit
- Tapered 1.5" to 0.75"
- XF steel: polished 304, 26 gauge, made in the USA
- Fixed to the XF molding with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
On the XF's side molding, QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the surface it sits on.
Compare with your molding
Measure your side molding's face at the front and the back of the car. The photos show how the tapered steel relates to it. If your molding looks different, call before ordering.
Molding prep
Wash, then wipe each molding with isopropyl alcohol until a fresh cloth comes away clean. Trim dressing must be fully removed. Make sure the moldings are firmly attached.
Six pieces in order
Label each piece with side and position on painter's tape, based on the photos and the taper.
Fitting
Center each piece on the molding with the liner on, check that the taper runs the right way, and look along the side from the front. Open the doors to check the ends. Then peel an inch or two at a time and press.
Following the taper
Compare each piece with the photos before peeling it, so every taper runs the right way.
Other XF parts
GC29098, PP29098, PP29099 and WQ29098 are linked here; their own listings say which finish each one has.
Supplies
Gather soap, alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a ruler for the XF.
Afterward
Choose a mild, dry day for the six XF inserts; wait about a day to wash, keep dressings off the steel, and polish only with a non-abrasive product.
What it changes
A polished line along the side molding that narrows from one end to the other, following the molding's path.
Before ordering
Photograph a molding with a ruler across it at both ends, and have your model year ready. If you call 877-752-3811, those details answer most questions about the taper and fit.
Second press
Press each piece firmly again after an hour, paying attention to the narrow ends.
Install day
Cold moldings take tape slowly. Work on a mild afternoon or in a garage, and keep the car dry overnight.
Tip: keep the six labeled pieces in order on a clean towel while you work.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Insert Kit
- Unpack all 6 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.
