Product Description
Chevrolet HHR 2006-2011 Stainless License Plate Bezel, 8.125" (LP46140)
LP46140 is cataloged for the Chevrolet HHR, tagged 4-door Wagon, across six model years from 2006 to 2011. There are no trim exclusions on the row. The part is a single License Plate Bezel, made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, and its listing carries a width of 8.125".
Reading the width
The 8.125" figure is helpful, but the catalog doesn't name the dimension it describes, so we've flagged it. Use it alongside the product photos, which show the actual outline, rather than measuring the car and deciding on that number alone. Compare the photos with the area around your HHR's plate, including any lock, handle, emblem or lighting. Quality Automotive Trims can explain the measurement at 877-752-3811; quote LP46140.
Installing on an HHR
The bezel installs directly over the existing surface using 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Look over the paint around the plate first and repair chips or lifting clear coat; remove old adhesive with a plastic tool. Wash, dry and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Then dry-fit with the liner on, mark the spot with painter's tape, and press it firmly into place. The Installation tab lists the steps and temperature range.
The HHR list
Four other parts are cross-listed. RD46140 is a one-piece Rear Deck Accent at 3.188", cataloged for the back of the wagon like this bezel, so compare their photos together if you're considering both. TH46140 is a four-piece lower kit at 4.33" that sits On the doors only and spans from the bottom of the door up to the specified width. PP46140 is a two-piece pillar post kit. SGR46140 is listed as a six-piece "HHR LIMITED" Logo Decal with bowtie Emblem, with Linked letters "HHR" and "LIMITED", Set of Two, but it also carries a note reading Chrysler wings emblem, which doesn't belong on a Chevrolet part. That listing has been flagged; call before ordering it. Check each listing for its finish.
Starting small
The bezel and the deck trim are the two listed rear parts. Start with the bezel; it's the smaller task, and once it's on you can decide whether the HHR's deck piece suits it. When the deck piece goes on, hold both up with liners intact and the plate loosely back in place, since neither listed width tells you what it spans and seeing them together on the HHR is what matters. A few minutes of dry fitting saves peeling a taped part later.
Year check
Look for an HHR between 2006 and 2011 in your records.
With a plate frame
Refit any frame during the dry fit to confirm it doesn't overlap the bezel, and choose the look you want before the liner comes off.
Care
Wash with mild soap and water and dry with a soft towel; keep steel wool and scouring pads away.

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.
