Product Description
Acura MDX 2001-2006 Window Sill Trim WS21297, 4 Pieces of Polished Stainless
WS21297 is a four-piece polished stainless steel Window Sill Trim Set for the Acura MDX 4-door SUV, model years 2001 to 2006. The record doesn't list a width, so use the photos to see how the strips look on the sills.
Check that your MDX was built in 2001-2006. A later MDX isn't covered by this listing; phone 877-752-3811 for those.
How it's made
The pieces are produced in the USA from high-quality, polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel. They go on over the existing surface, held by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, the tape holds for a lifetime and leaves the vehicle's surface undamaged.
Pieces and placement
Four pieces. The record doesn't list which door each belongs to; the photos do, so match them up and label the liners on arrival.
Other MDX parts
The MDX group is short: two pillar sets, PP21297 (four pieces) and PP21298 (six pieces), and TH21297, an eight-piece lower rocker kit at 4.688" that spans from the bottom of the door up. There's no window package for these years, so for sills and pillars together, order WS21297 with one of the PP sets.
Sill checks on an older SUV
Look closely at each sill for built-up wax, polish or old adhesive, since the tape needs a sound, clean finish. Clean each sill with shampoo solution on a soft cloth, rinse with a damp cloth and dry. Inspect under a lamp, remove any residue with a plastic scraper, and wipe the sills with wax-and-grease remover. If the finish on a sill is flaking or damaged, call 877-752-3811 before fitting. Isopropyl alcohol is the final wipe, just before each piece.
Fitting
Hold the first piece on its sill with two strips of painter's tape and the liner on, then check both ends against the photos. Peel a little liner from one end, press it down, then pull the liner out along the piece as you press. Press the full length again. Do another door next, then the remaining two.
No washing for a day; mild soap and a soft cloth after that.
Pairing with a pillar set
PP21297 has four pieces and PP21298 has six. Compare their photos with your MDX's door posts to see which matches the coverage you want. You can fit the sills and pillars on the same day if every surface is prepared first; if you're unsure which goes on first, ask 877-752-3811. TH21297 sits low on the doors and is a separate job.
Checking the parcel
Count four pieces, check the label reads WS21297, and keep each strip flat in its sleeve. Hold each up to its sill with the liner on before deciding it's right.
Afterwards, walk around the MDX a few paces away to check the four strips sit evenly, and press any end that isn't flat before the first wash.
A mild, dry day suits the job best.

Installation tips: Window Sill Trim Set
- Unpack all 4 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.
