Product Description
VW Passat 1995-1997 Sedan Full Rocker Kit TH95675, 8"-8.5" Tapered, 8 Pieces
TH95675 is an eight-piece Full Kit of polished stainless steel, made for the 4-door Volkswagen Passat sedan of 1995 through 1997. The width tapers from 8" to 8.5", and the pieces run "from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door."
Three ways to trim a Passat
QAA links three rocker kits for this sedan, each with eight pieces:
- TH95675: Full Kit, molding to door bottom, 8" to 8.5" tapered (this kit)
- TH95676: Upper Kit, 6" down from the molding
- TH95677: Lower Kit, 2" up from the bottom of the door
The Full Kit covers the whole space. The Upper Kit starts at the molding and leaves a strip of paint showing at the bottom; the Lower Kit is a slim band along the door bottom and leaves the area under the molding painted.
Measure before you choose
The record doesn't say which end of the taper is taller. Measure from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door at the front and rear of each door with a rigid ruler. Readings between 8" and 8.5" match this kit. If yours fall outside, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Construction
The eight Passat pieces are cut in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel and set between molding and door bottom with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime with no harm to the sedan.
The full-height surface
A Full Kit puts tape over most of the lower door. Wash and rinse it, remove wax and polish with a wax-and-grease remover, repair chips and rust spots, and give it a final isopropyl alcohol wipe just before fitting.
Molding
The top edge of each piece follows the molding. Repair any section that is lifting, cracked or missing before you start.
Sorting eight pieces
Positions aren't listed in the record. Set the pieces out, match them with the photos, and write the position on each liner. The taper helps: a piece the wrong way round won't follow the door edge.
Trial fit
- Hold each piece with painter's tape.
- Check both edges, top and bottom.
- Open all four doors to test clearance.
- Sight down the side from each end.
Bonding
Peel a short length of liner, press across the full height, and continue along. Finish with firm pressure on every edge.
Weather and curing
A mild, dry day in shade is best. Leave the car unwashed for a day.
Which kit for which look
If you want the lower door to read as one polished surface, this Full Kit is the one. If you'd rather keep some paint showing, compare the 6" Upper Kit or the 2" Lower Kit by laying masking tape at those heights before choosing. Once you've decided, take your measurements on all four doors, since a door that's been repaired can differ from the rest. Any reading that doesn't fit the 8" to 8.5" range is worth a call before the box is opened.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full 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.
