Product Description
Honda Accord 1994-1997 Sedan Upper Kit TH94281, 4.75"-5" Tapered, 8 Pieces
TH94281 is an eight-piece polished stainless steel Upper Kit for the 1994-1997 Honda Accord 4-door sedan. QAA's width bullet reads "4.75" - 5" tapered," and the pieces span "from the bottom of the molding DOWN to the specified width."
Quarter-inch taper
Each piece changes height by a quarter of an inch along its length. The record doesn't say which end is taller, so the photos are your guide when orienting them. Mark each liner with the direction once you've worked it out.
Linked Accord parts
- TH94251: coupe Upper Kit, tapered 4.75" to 4.875", 6 pieces
- PP96281: sedan Pillar Post Trim, 4 pieces
- PP96282: sedan Pillar Post Trim, 6 pieces
The coupe kit is tagged for a different body. The two pillar sets share this kit's sedan tag; the record doesn't say how they differ beyond the count.
Length
No length note appears in the record, so it doesn't say whether the eight pieces stop at the wheel wells. Check the photos, or ask us.
What it's made of
Cut in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, the eight tapered 1994-1997 Accord pieces press on under the molding using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the sedan.
Seeing the band
Put masking tape about 5" below the molding along all four doors and look from a few steps away. The trim will cover between 4.75" and 5" below the molding. If the tape crosses the door bottom anywhere, phone 877-752-3811 with a photo.
Preparing
Check that the molding is firm on every door; each piece's top edge sits against it. Wash the band beneath, strip old wax with a wax-and-grease remover, touch in chips, and wipe with isopropyl alcohol just before fitting.
Sorting eight pieces
Positions aren't listed in the record. Mark each liner with its position and which way it tapers.
Dry fit and bond
Tape each piece up with painter's tape and check its orientation. Open all four doors. Then peel the liner a section at a time and press firmly.
Following the front pieces
Hold each gap and taper direction to the same pattern along the Accord.
Conditions
Work shaded on a mild, dry day; the Accord waits a day to be washed.
If a door reads differently
If one door gives a reading that stands apart, check whether that door or its molding has been replaced, and send its figures separately.
Pace and handling
Fit a single door completely, then step back and check the lower edge before going on. Sort the pieces on a soft towel so the polished faces stay unmarked, and keep every liner on until all four doors are dry fitted.
Tools
Gather painter's tape and masking tape, a tape measure, wax-and-grease remover, isopropyl alcohol and a few microfiber cloths before starting.
Hang on to the box until the Accord job is finished.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Upper Kit
- Unpack all 8 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.
