Product Description
Suburban, Tahoe, Yukon & Escalade 2015-2020 Stainless Tailgate Handle Accent (TGH55195)
TGH55195 is a one-piece polished stainless steel handle accent for the rear liftgate of four SUVs from 2015 through 2020. The title and the compatibility line both name the Chevrolet Suburban, Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon for those years. The included line reads QAA's 1 piece stainless steel tailgate handle accent trim.
Four nameplates, one part
Escalade, Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, all 4-door SUVs. No trim exclusions appear. Owners of any of the four can go by the fitment line, or call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 to be sure.
Earlier trucks use a different listing
QAA catalogs a separate handle accent for the earlier versions of these SUVs. It isn't linked here, so if your SUV predates 2015, search for that one instead.
The steel
Made in the USA from high-quality polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel. It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, which QAA states will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. It installs directly over the existing surface.
No dimensions given
The record lists no width or length. The accent is made for the handle area of these liftgates; the photos show its outline.
A coordinated rear
Several linked parts sit nearby: RT55195 tailgate accent w2.25, LB55195 two-piece license bar extension w1.25, LP55195 license plate bezel and BI55195 rear bumper accent, 0.875" width. Also linked: GC55195 gas door cover and PP55195 / PP55196 pillar kits. The lines don't state a finish, so read each listing. If you plan several rear pieces, compare their photos together and fit the largest first.
Oils and wax are the enemy
Every opening leaves a little hand oil behind. Wash the handle area with warm soapy water, rinse, dry and give it two isopropyl alcohol wipes. After that, handle the accent by its edges.
Setting it
Test the position with the liner on. A small strip of painter's tape at each end marks the spot. Peel and press, working from the middle outward, then go over the whole face again with firm pressure.
The first day
Open the liftgate gently for the first few hours, without pulling hard on the new accent. Wait a day before washing.
Cleaning
Mild soap, a soft cloth and a non-abrasive metal polish now and then.
Why it's worth doing
It's a small part on a high-touch spot. Polished stainless there stays easy to wipe clean and gives the rear a bright detail.
Supplies
Soap, water, isopropyl alcohol, clean cloths and painter's tape. That's all.
Checking the fit
Step back after pressing and look at the liftgate straight on. The accent should sit centered on the handle area with no edge lifting. If it's off, lift it within the first minute and reset it. Choose a dry, mild day for the job, or work in a garage when it's cold, since warm surfaces bond best.

Installation tips: Tailgate Handle Accent Trim
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
