Product Description
Cadillac Eldorado 1992-1994 Coupe Rocker Trim, Six Pieces, 8.16", Between the Wheel Wells (TH32230)
TH32230 is the shorter of two Eldorado rocker kits. It's six pieces of polished stainless steel at 8.16" for the 1992-1994 Cadillac Eldorado coupe, with the notes "Includes coverage between wheel wells only" and "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door."
Between the wells or full length?
The linked TH32231 is ten pieces at the same 8.16" with "Full Length, Includes coverage from the wheel well to the bumper on the front and rear." So the choice is about how far the steel runs. TH32230 stays between the front and rear wheel openings. TH32231 continues past them to the bumpers. Same height, different length of coverage.
That 8.16" figure
8.16" is a precise figure. Measure from the molding down to the bottom of a door on your Eldorado; you should get something very close to it. If you're well off, call 877-752-3811 before ordering.
Fitment
Cadillac Eldorado, 2-door coupe, 1992, 1993 and 1994.
Material and mounting
QAA builds the Eldorado coupe kit from six pieces of polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA, set between the wheel wells with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the Cadillac.
Six pieces on a coupe
The record doesn't list positions. The record doesn't say how the six Eldorado pieces divide, so confirm with the photos. Label each liner.
Prep for a tall band
Over eight inches of steel means plenty of tape against the paint. Wash, dry and wipe the whole band with isopropyl alcohol, changing cloths as they dirty. Feel for bumps; smooth paint gives a flat polished face.
Installing
Set the top edge under the molding with the liner on, check the bottom against the door edge, then peel and press from one end. Press outward from the middle to release air.
Door check
Open and close each door slowly after its piece is on.
Even spacing on the Eldorado
Measure the first Eldorado pieces and keep the same positions for the rest.
Molding first
The top of each piece tucks under the side molding, so check it's secure along its whole length. A loose molding end will show as a step in the steel.
What you'll need
Soap and water, isopropyl alcohol, clean lint-free cloths, painter's tape for labels and test strips, a tape measure, and a plastic tool for lifting old wax or tar. A helper to hold the far end of an eight-inch panel square is handy.
Choosing with confidence
If you're torn between this kit and the full-length TH32231, compare the product photos of both and picture where the steel stops at each wheel opening. It comes down to whether you want the steel to end at the wheels or carry on to the bumpers. Either way, we can answer questions by phone.
Conditions
Fit the Eldorado trim in dry, mild weather; about a day before washing; non-abrasive polish.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 6 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.
