Product Description
Chevrolet Silverado Extended Cab 2009-2013 Molding Inserts, 1.8125", 4 Pieces (TH49185)
TH49185 is the four-piece insert kit for the 2009-2013 Chevrolet Silverado Extended Cab, the four-door pickup. The inserts are polished stainless steel, 1.8125" wide, and the listing places them on the side molding.
Rocker title, molding inserts
The title and category say Rocker Panel Trim, while the part name is Insert Kit and the location note reads "Side Molding." We go by the notes: these are inserts for the molding strip, not a rocker panel cover. If you were shopping for a rocker panel piece, this isn't it, and a call to 877-752-3811 will sort out what you need.
Extended Cab only
The fitment names one cab. The linked sibling, TH49181, is the two-piece Regular Cab kit at the same width. The Crew Cab sits in a separate, unlinked record that also covers the Avalanche LT1 and Suburban. Check your cab before ordering, since the counts and records differ.
Four inserts, four doors
The record doesn't say which insert goes on which door. Lay all four out, compare them with the product photos and your doors, and pencil a mark on each liner before starting.
Molding check
Each door needs its molding strip in place, secure, and close to an inch and thirteen-sixteenths across. Press along each strip. Re-secure any end that lifts. Molding isn't part of the kit.
Material
The four 1.8125" Silverado Extended Cab molding inserts are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless that QAA forms in the USA, pressed in with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime with no harm to the 2009-2013 truck.
Prep
Wash the molding, dry it, then wipe with isopropyl alcohol. Trim dressing and wax both keep tape from bonding, so wipe until the cloth stays clean.
Install
Painter's tape holds an insert while you check centering and the ends. Peel a short length of liner, set the forward end, and press along as the liner comes off. Firm pressure along the whole insert to finish. Do a front door first, then line the rear insert up with it across the door gap.
Front and rear inserts
Measure each Silverado strip end from the nearest door edge and keep those distances consistent.
Afterward
Open all four doors to check clearance. Give it a day before washing, then mild soap and a soft cloth.
Conditions
Silverado install: a garage or a dry, mild day.

Preview
Run painter's tape along the molding and look from the front corner of the truck. That shows roughly where the polished line will sit before you commit.
A helper
A second person holding the far end keeps a long insert centered while you set the first end.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Insert Kit
- Unpack all 4 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.
