Product Description
TH55640 Lincoln MKC 2015-2019 Upper Rocker Kit, 6 Pieces, 2.5"-3.5"
TH55640 is a six-piece polished stainless steel Upper Kit for the 2015-2019 Lincoln MKC 4-door SUV. The width is listed as 2.5" to 3.5", and the steel spans "from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width."
A range, not a single figure
The record gives the width as a range but doesn't use the word "tapered" or say which pieces are which height. It doesn't say whether that's a taper along each piece or a difference between pieces, so call to ask. The photos show the shapes, and 877-752-3811 can answer anything they don't.
Three molding-area parts to tell apart
The MKC listings include three six-piece kits that all relate to the side of the SUV, and it helps to keep them straight:
- TH55640 (this kit): Upper Kit, 2.5"-3.5", from the bottom of the molding down
- MI55640: body molding insert kit, 1.25"-1.75"
- AT55640: body side molding accent trim, 1.5"-1.75"
The record doesn't say how the insert and accent kits sit relative to this one. If you plan to combine them, compare all three sets of photos and give us a call.
The steel
The six tapered MKC pieces are USA-made, polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel. They go on below the molding over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Lincoln.
Pillar options
Three pillar post sets are linked: PP55640 with four pieces, PP55641 with six, and PP55642 with ten. The record lists the counts, not what each piece covers, so check each listing's notes and call.
A tail light listing to double-check
TR55640, a three-piece tail light ring set, is listed for a "4-door, Sedan" even though every other MKC part here is listed for the SUV. That looks like a catalog slip, but we won't assume. Call before ordering it. BL55640 (brake light surround), GC55640 (gas door), LP55640 (license plate bezel) and RD55640 (rear deck / liftgate accent) are listed for the SUV. Check each listing for its finish.
Mapping the six pieces
Six pieces on a four-door SUV means the layout isn't simply one per door. Lay them out, sort them by shape, and use the photos to place each one. Write the position on the liner.
Clean under the molding
Wash, rinse and dry the area under the molding, then wipe it with isopropyl alcohol.
Dry fit
Tape each piece up with painter's tape. Check that the top edges follow the molding and that the heights look right against the photos. Open each door to check clearance.
Bond
Peel a short section of liner, set, press, and continue to the end. Then press the whole piece again firmly.
MKC gap figures
Measure the finished MKC run's spacing at the door gaps and copy it along the rest of the car.
Care
Wait a day, then wash with mild soap and a soft cloth.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper 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.
