Product Description
Cadillac CTS, CTS Sport Wagon and STS Chrome Door Handle Covers, 8 Pieces (DH48250)
DH48250 is an eight-piece chrome door handle cover kit QAA lists for three Cadillac four-door listings: the 2008-2013 CTS, the 2010-2013 CTS Sport Wagon, and the 2005-2011 STS. The covers are molded from polished chrome-plated ABS plastic and imported.
Cadillac fitment
- Cadillac CTS, 2008-2013, six model years
- Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon, 2010-2013, four model years
- Cadillac STS, 2005-2011, seven model years
Each row is tagged 4-door, with sedan and sport wagon listed together in the body field. The CTS Sport Wagon has its own row with a shorter range, so wagon owners should check that row specifically. The Fitment tab shows all three exactly as QAA records them.
Lock cylinders
This listing has no key access note, so the catalog does not say whether the covers include keyhole openings or on which door. Look at your front door handles, compare them with the product photos, and call us before ordering if you need to keep a lock usable.
Eight pieces
Eight chrome pieces for four doors. The catalog does not label them individually. Sort them by door against the photos before you start.
Chrome on ABS
Molded ABS plastic, chrome plated and polished. The shaped covers wrap each handle in bright chrome, which pairs with chrome trim already on the car.
Putting them on
QAA uses 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape on these covers. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
- Wash the area around each handle, then rinse.
- Degrease to remove wax, sealant, or detailing spray.
- Dry completely.
- Dry-fit each cover and check alignment from a step back.
- Press each one firmly over the whole outline.
Let the car sit dry overnight. The Installation tab has the full steps.
Sedan or wagon
Because the kit is cataloged for both the CTS sedan rows and the Sport Wagon row, it may suit either body within the listed years. The catalog does not describe any difference in handle shape between them, so if you are unsure, compare the photos with your car or call us.
Work one door at a time
With eight pieces, finish each door before moving on. Fit the CTS covers a door at a time, sorted beforehand with the photos.
Conditions
Install in the shade on a dry, mild day. A CTS that's waxed often needs a second degreaser pass so the tape grips evenly.
Why handle covers
The door handles are where hands, rings, and keys meet the paint every day, so the area around them is often the first to show wear. Molded chrome covers give that spot a bright, finished look in an afternoon.
Care
Wash and dry the chrome with a soft microfiber towel once the tape has set. Avoid abrasive pads.

Installation tips: Door Handle Cover 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, 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.
