Product Description
Cadillac Escalade 2007-2014 Rear Window Trim, 2-Piece Polished Stainless (RW47255)
For the 2007 through 2014 Cadillac Escalade SUV, RW47255 frames the rear glass with two pieces of polished stainless. The fitment lists the 4-door SUV.
Which Escalade body?
This family came in more than one body in QAA's records. Two linked pillar kits, PP47256 and PP47257, say "Does not fit EXT OR ESV," and WZ47256 fender trim is tagged ESV. The window trim itself carries only the SUV tag, with no exclusion note, so the data doesn't say outright whether it fits the ESV. If you drive an ESV or EXT, phone Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 first and we'll confirm.
Size and layout
Not recorded. There are no dimensions, and the record doesn't specify which edges of the glass each piece runs along. Study the product photos, and ask us for measurements if you need them.
The metal
The set is 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, given a mirror polish and made in the USA. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape holds it over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
Linked Escalade parts
- PP47256 and PP47257 pillar kits, six and eight pieces.
- TH47255 upper rocker kit, spanning down from the molding to its listed width.
- SG47255 front grille accents, noted not to fit Premium models.
- WZ47256 wheel well fender trim, for the ESV.
Read the exclusions, and check each listing for its finish.
Readying the surface
SUVs of this age often carry years of wax and dressing. Start with a wash and dry. Then work over each spot where trim will sit using a residue-free cleaner, turning to a clean section of cloth each pass, until nothing more lifts off. Peeling clearcoat needs repair before any tape goes on.
An even fit
Tape both pieces up with liners intact. Pick one kind of landmark, such as the glass edge, and measure each piece from it until both agree. Outline them in painter's tape.
Committing
Remove one liner, seat the piece on its outline, and apply firm pressure along its full length. Fit the second piece, then go back over all edges. Mild, dry weather suits the adhesive; the Installation tab walks through it.
Steel that stays bright
Polished 304 doesn't have a plated surface. Scratches show steel, not a base metal, and a light polish lifts dullness.
Living with it
Hold off on washing for a few days. Afterward, mild soap and a soft cloth.
Pick your day
Adhesive bonds best to a cool, dry panel. Work under a roof or in shade, not in direct afternoon sun, and avoid damp mornings. Allow each cleaned spot a few minutes to dry before peeling. A patient install is the one that lasts.
A note on the title
The title reads "Stainless Rear Window Trim" rather than "Stainless Steel"; the record's material field is stainless steel.
Decorative
Nothing is replaced; the liftgate and glass operate as before.

Installation tips: Rear Window Trim
- Unpack all 2 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 directly over the existing surface, 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.
