Product Description
Cadillac SRX 2004-2009 Stainless License Plate Bezel, 1 Piece (LP44260)
LP44260 is the one-piece License Plate Bezel for the Cadillac SRX 4-door SUV, model years 2004 through 2009. The fitment row lists six years, no trim exclusions. It's made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish.
Bezel or three-piece surround?
The SRX sheet has a second plate-area part, and choosing between them is the main decision here. LPS44260 is a three-piece License Plate Surround Trim for the same SUV. This listing, LP44260, is a single-piece bezel. The catalog doesn't explain how the two differ in coverage or shape, and neither lists dimensions, so we can't say whether they overlap, complement each other or cover different areas. Put both sets of product photos side by side and compare them with the area around your plate. If it's still unclear, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and ask about LP44260 and LPS44260 together, so you don't end up with two parts competing for the same spot. We've flagged the pair so the listings can explain the difference.
Check the outline
No cutouts are mentioned for the bezel. In the photos, look at how it sits relative to any lock, handle, emblem or lighting near the plate on your SRX.
Mounting
On the SRX, the bezel goes straight over the existing surface on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, with nothing drilled. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. On an SUV from these years, repair chips or lifting clear coat around the plate first and lift off old adhesive. Wash, dry and wipe with rubbing alcohol, dry-fit with the liner on, and mark the position with painter's tape before peeling and pressing. The Installation tab has the full sequence and temperature range.
The rest of the SRX list
TH44261 is a six-piece Rocker Panel Trim, Insert Kit listed from 2" to 2.5", noted as Side Molding. DS44260 is a four-piece door sill trim, and WQ44260 a four-piece wheel well accent set. PP44260 and PP44261 are pillar post kits with four and six pieces. GC44260 is a one-piece gas door cover trim. SG44260 and WZ46260 are cross-listed by number only; WZ46260's number doesn't follow this sheet's series, so we've asked for that link to be checked. Check each listing for its finish.
One piece versus several
A practical point in favor of the single bezel: there's only one placement to get right, with no joints between pieces to keep even. If you choose this part, the dry fit is mostly about centering it and checking the margins from behind the SUV. A multi-piece surround, by comparison, means lining up each piece against its neighbors, so look at its photos and instructions before deciding.
Year and frame
An SRX between 2004 and 2009 is what your paperwork should show. If you use a plate frame, refit it during the dry fit to see whether it overlaps the bezel.
Upkeep
Mild soap, water and a soft towel keep it bright. Skip abrasive pads, steel wool and gritty compounds, all of which leave fine scratches.

Installation tips: License Plate Bezel
- 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.
