Product Description
Cadillac DTS Eagle Hearse 2006-2011 Full-Length Lower Kit, 4.5", 12 Pieces (TH46240)
TH46240 is listed for one specific body: the Cadillac DTS "Eagle Hearse," 2006-2011. It's a twelve-piece Lower Kit of polished stainless steel at 4.5", and its first note reads "Full Length, Includes coverage from the wheel well to the bumper on the front and rear." The second note: "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Built around the Eagle body
The fitment names Eagle, and the DTS group in this catalog separates hearse kits by builder name: a Federal EXT Hearse kit, kits tagged just "Hearse," and an Accubuilt limousine kit. So the builder matters. If your coach isn't an Eagle, or you're not sure who built it, don't rely on this record. Call 877-752-3811 with photos of both sides.
Wheel well to bumper
"Full Length" here means the steel doesn't stop at the doors; the note extends it from each wheel well to the bumper, front and rear. The record doesn't say how the twelve pieces are divided among those zones and the doors, so lay them out with the product photos before you start.
Same spec as the sedan kit
TH46246, linked here, is also a twelve-piece, 4.5" full-length Lower Kit, but its fitment is the four-door sedan. The data doesn't say whether the two kits share pieces or differ in length. If you're comparing them, call.
Measuring
Measure 4.5" up from the bottom edge at a door, at a front fender and at a rear quarter. The band should be clear and flat at each spot.
Material
The full-length DTS Eagle Hearse kit is twelve 4.5" strips of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel from a USA shop, carried wheel well to bumper on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape from the door bottom up. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without harm to the Cadillac.
Cleaning a long side
Wash the full lower body from bumper to bumper, rinse, dry, and wipe the band with isopropyl alcohol. Fix chips along the bottom edge first.
Setting the pieces
Dry-fit one whole side with painter's tape so you can see the run, then set each piece: peel a few inches of liner, align the bottom edge, press along, finish with firm pressure.
Other DTS records linked
TH46244 (Accubuilt limousine, 149" stretch), TH46247 (Federal EXT Hearse), TH46249 and TH46259 (both tagged "Hearse"), and LP46245, a plate bezel tagged for the sedan.
After
Open each door to confirm the DTS trim clears it, and keep the car dry for a day.
Care
Mild soap and a soft mitt on the DTS.
Helpers and space
Two people and a garage long enough to walk the full side.
What to send when you call
Builder name, model year, and photos of each full side.
Bottom edge
On a coach this long, the lower edge is the reference for twelve pieces. Sight along it from each end and touch up chips or scrapes before installing, so every piece sits flush.
DTS wheel-well spacing
Measure piece positions from the wheel wells and door gaps and carry them through the kit.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 12 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.
