Product Description
2006-2011 Cadillac DTS Accubuilt Limousine (149" Stretch) Rocker Trim, 2.25", 3 Pieces (TH46244)
TH46244 is tagged for a Cadillac DTS "Accubuilt Limousine, 149" Stretch," model years 2006-2011. The kit is three polished stainless steel pieces at 2.25" wide. Its notes say "149" extension" and "Installs below the door," so this is an on-the-rocker kit.
Three pieces is a question worth asking
A three-piece count on a stretched limousine is unusual, and the record doesn't explain it. Before ordering, call 877-752-3811 and ask exactly what the three pieces cover on your car.
Accubuilt and 149"
Two details define the fit: the builder is named as Accubuilt, and the stretch is 149". Confirm both. If your limousine is from another builder or has a different stretch, this record doesn't describe it.
A second 149" record
The catalog has another DTS 149" limousine rocker kit with six pieces, also at 2.25". It isn't linked to this one, and the data doesn't say how they differ besides the piece count and the Accubuilt name. Ask about it when you call.
Linked records
This one links the rest of the 2006-2011 DTS group: TH46240 (Eagle Hearse), TH46246 (sedan), TH46247 (Federal EXT Hearse), TH46249 and TH46259 (Hearse), plus LP46245, a sedan plate bezel.
Material
The three pieces for the 149" Accubuilt DTS limousine are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA. They bond below the doors over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the limousine.
Prep the rocker
Wash the whole rocker length, rinse, dry, and wipe with isopropyl alcohol. Touch up any chipped or scraped areas before installing.
Fit before you stick
Tape the three pieces in place with painter's tape and walk the length of the car to see where they fall. Only when that matches what you expected, set them: peel a little liner, align, press along, then press firmly.
After
Open each door to check clearance and wait a day before the first wash.
Care
Clean the DTS trim with mild soap and a soft cloth.
Conditions
A dry, mild day or a garage long enough for the car.
What to send
Builder, year, stretch length, and photos of both sides from end to end.
Before ordering
Three things to confirm: the car is a DTS from 2006 to 2011, it was built by Accubuilt, and the stretch is 149". Then ask us what the three pieces cover. If any one of those is uncertain, photos of both full sides and the builder badge sent to 877-752-3811 will let us check the record against your car.
Rocker condition
Look along the rocker for dents, scrapes or repaired areas, especially in the stretched section, and fix them before the steel goes on.
Spacing the three pieces
Once the first piece is set, measure the others from the door openings so all three line up.
Helpers
Two people make it easier to handle pieces along a body this long.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, On the rocker
- Unpack all 3 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.
