Product Description
Ford Expedition 2008-2017 Roof Rack Center Pieces, 2-Piece, 2.187-Inch (RR55384)
This is the center-pieces-only version. RR55384 is a two-piece polished stainless roof rack trim for the Ford Expedition 4-door SUV, 2008 through 2017, and the record describes it as including center pieces only. Both pieces are listed at 2.187 inches wide.
Which set do you want?
The other option for the same SUV is RR55383, six pieces at the same width, noted as including end cap pieces. The record doesn't spell out whether the six-piece set contains these center pieces too, so it's worth comparing both listings' photos. If you want only the middle sections dressed, choose this two-piece set; if you want the ends covered, look at RR55383. When in doubt, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and describe what you want covered.
No EL
The fitment explicitly excludes the EL. This set is for the Expedition without the EL designation; EL owners should call before ordering, because nothing in this record covers their vehicle.
Specs
- Two pieces, 26-gauge 304 stainless steel
- Mirror polish, made in the USA
- 2.187 inches wide
- 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
- Installs over the existing surface
QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
Picture the width
At just over two inches, these are broad strips. Painter's tape of a similar width placed where the photos show the center pieces gives a quick preview from the ground.
Window sill set
WS55383, a four-piece window sill set at 1.125 inches with keyless entry pad, is also linked. Its listing shows its own finish.
Prep
Wash and dry the rack, then wipe each footprint with a residue-free cleaner until a fresh cloth stays clean. Treat any weathered or flaking surface first.
Placing the center pieces
With liners on, set each piece to the photos and measure from fixed points so both sit at the same spot. Mark with painter's tape. Peel gradually and press firmly from one end to the other. Mild, dry weather is best. The Installation tab covers the full process.
Safety
Work from a ladder, not from the roof, and don't lean on the rack.
Care
Give the tape a few days before washing. Then mild soap and a soft cloth. Polished 304 has no plating to flake.
Buying more later
If you start with the center pieces and later decide you want the ends covered too, check with QAA about combining sets before ordering RR55383, since the record doesn't say whether the two are meant to go together.
Why stainless on the roof
The roof gets more direct sun than any other surface. Solid polished 304 has no plating to fade or peel, so the strips keep their look with simple washing.
Two pieces, simpler job
With only two parts to place, this is a shorter install than the six-piece set, and there's less sorting involved.
What it is
Decorative trim; it doesn't replace any factory part or affect rack function.

Installation tips: Roof Rack Trim
- Unpack all 2 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.
