Product Description
Accubuilt Cadillac Limousine 41" Stretch (DeVille 2000-2005, DTS 2006-2011): On-the-Rocker Trim, 6 Pieces, 2.25" (TH40244)
One word sets TH40244 apart: Accubuilt. The tag reads "Accubuilt Limousine, 41" Stretch," and the fitment row and the title cover the Cadillac DeVille from 2000-2005 and the DTS from 2006-2011. It's six pieces of polished stainless steel, 2.25" wide, filed "On the rocker," and it "Installs below the door."
Builder named on the tag
This record specifies the coachbuilder. The data doesn't say whether the kit suits a 41" car from another builder. If your limousine came from a different builder, or you don't know who built it, call 877-752-3811 with the paperwork details before ordering.
41" twice
The width line says "41" Between the wheel wells," the same figure as the stretch. How it's measured isn't explained. Compare with your own measurement and the builder's documentation.
No linked kits
Nothing is attached to this record, so no door-mounted kit appears beside it here.
Material
Built for the Accubuilt 41" stretch limousine, six 2.25" strips of USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel go below the doors on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. Per QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the DeVille or DTS.
Six pieces under the doors
The record doesn't describe how they divide along the rocker. The product photos show the arrangement. Lay the pieces out beside the car and match each before peeling.
The rocker face
Close each door and look beneath it. The steel needs a flat area about two and a quarter inches tall. Panels that look different from the photos are worth a picture and a call.
Setting the line
Pick one distance below the door bottoms that keeps the strip on flat paint all the way along. Mark it at several points with painter's tape and sight from each end.
Cleaning
Rocker panels gather road film. Wash, rinse, dry, then isopropyl alcohol until the cloth comes away clean. Repair chips before installing.
Applying
Set a few inches of each piece on your marks, then press along as you pull the liner. Firm pressure from end to end.
Doors
Open and close each door to be sure the bottom edges clear.
What to send when you call
Builder, nameplate, year, stretch figure, and a photo of the whole limo.
Supplies
For the Accubuilt limo: long tape measure, painter's tape, soap, alcohol, microfiber cloths and a kneeling pad.
Care
The limo should go a day without washing.
Before ordering
Measure along the rocker under the doors and compare with the product photos. Confirm the builder from the door-jamb label or the conversion paperwork. If either leaves you unsure, a quick call with photos settles it.
Weather
Install in dry, mild weather, or in a garage. Cold panels and cold tape don't bond as well, so let both warm up first.
Holding one line on the Accubuilt body
Measure from the door bottoms and reuse those distances, so the rocker line stays the same along the whole stretched body.

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