Product Description
Cadillac SRX 2004-2009 Polished Stainless Gas Door Trim (GC44260)
GC44260 is the fuel door piece in a broad set of stainless trim cross-listed for the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX 4-door SUV. By itself, it's one polished overlay of 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, made in the USA. The SRX piece attaches using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. The single Fitment row covers six model years of the SRX.
It is not a replacement cap and not a replacement part. You MUST have the existing gas door to install this piece. Think of it as a cover for the door the SRX already has: it gives polish but won't replace a broken or missing door.
The SRX set, as listed. The sheet links seven described parts for the same SUV. DS44260 is a four-piece door sill trim set. LP44260 is a one-piece license plate bezel, and LPS44260 is a three-piece license plate surround. PP44260 and PP44261 are four- and six-piece pillar post sets; QAA doesn't say what the two additional pieces cover, so compare photos or call. TH44261 is a six-piece rocker insert kit noted as "Side Molding," 2-2.5 inches wide, and WQ44260 is a four-piece wheel well accent set. Two more, SG44260 and WZ46260, appear by number only, without details on this sheet.
Having both a bezel and a surround for the plate is worth noticing. They're different parts with different piece counts, so look at both listings' photos before deciding which suits you.
Starting point. Among all of these, the gas door trim is the quickest to install and the least fussy: a single flat panel, nothing else to match. It's a reasonable first purchase if you want to see the polished finish on your SRX before committing to sills or rockers.
Quick order check. Make sure it's an SRX, that the model year falls between 2004 and 2009, and that the gas door is intact and shuts properly.
Tape and paint. GC44260 installs directly over the existing surface with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Since the adhesive depends on good paint, inspect the door for fading, chips, peeling or bubbling clear coat, and repair those before installing. Check that it closes flush.
Installation in short. Clean with soap and water, dry, and degrease. With the liner on, set the trim on the closed door and move it until the even border of paint shows on all sides; mark the spot with painter's tape. Peel the liner, align to the marks, and press firmly all over, then again a minute later. Open the door slowly to verify clearance. The Installation tab has the full walkthrough.
Finish and care. Polished 304 stainless is bright and reflective, and 26 gauge keeps the overlay thin. Install on a dry, mild day and leave the tape to set overnight. Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap, and wipe off spilled fuel.

Installation tips: Gas Door Cover Trim
- Confirm your vehicle still has its original gas door. This trim mounts over it and does not replace it.
- 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.
