Frequently Asked Questions About International S1700-S1900 Floor Trim

Will this floor trim fit my specific International S-Series truck model and year?

Our International S1700-S1900 floor trim is designed to fit S-Series trucks manufactured from 1979 through 2001. This includes models S1700, S1800, S1900, S2100, S2200, S2300, S2500, and S2600. However, minor variations may exist between early and late production years. We recommend checking your existing floor trim measurements or contacting our customer service team with your VIN to ensure proper fitment before ordering.

What material is the floor trim made from, and how durable is it compared to OEM?

Our floor trim is manufactured from heavy-duty ABS plastic or aluminum, depending on the specific product you select. The ABS options feature UV-resistant coating to prevent fading and cracking, while aluminum trim pieces are anodized for corrosion resistance. Both materials match or exceed OEM specifications for durability. Many customers report our trim lasting 10+ years in daily commercial use when properly installed and maintained.

Do I need special tools or professional installation for the floor trim?

Installation typically requires basic hand tools including a drill with bits, screwdriver, and trim removal tools. Most floor trim pieces use existing mounting holes, though some applications may require drilling new holes. The job usually takes 2-4 hours depending on your experience level. We provide detailed installation instructions with each order. Common challenges include removing old adhesive residue and ensuring proper alignment - having a heat gun and adhesive remover on hand is recommended.

What finish options are available, and will they match my truck's interior?

We offer floor trim in several finishes including polished aluminum, brushed aluminum, black textured ABS, and chrome-plated options. The black textured finish matches most OEM International interiors from this era. For custom applications, the aluminum trim can be painted or powder-coated. We recommend ordering color samples if you need an exact match, as monitor displays may not accurately represent actual finishes.

Are mounting hardware and adhesive included with the floor trim?

Most of our floor trim kits include necessary mounting clips and screws that match OEM specifications. However, adhesive strips or double-sided tape are typically not included due to varying customer preferences and installation methods. We recommend using 3M automotive-grade double-sided tape or construction adhesive for sections requiring adhesive mounting. Hardware kits are available separately if you need replacements or extras.
