Product Description
130" Stretch Cadillac Limousine (DeVille 2000-2005, DTS 2006-2011): Rocker Trim Below the Doors, 6 Pieces, 2.25" (TH40260)
The fitment row on TH40260 reads "Limo With 130" Stretch," for the Cadillac DeVille 2000-2005 and the DTS 2006-2011, and the title names both. The width line agrees: "2.25" Width, 130" extension." It's six pieces of polished stainless steel, filed "On the rocker," with the note "Installs below the door."
Six pieces for a very long car
Here's what we'd flag before anyone orders. This record has the same piece count, six, as the much shorter limousine kits in the same group, yet the stretch figure is 130". The data doesn't explain how six pieces cover that length or whether some of the body is left without trim. We'll confirm it with you. Please look at the product photos and call 877-752-3811 with a full-side photo of your car so we can confirm what the kit covers.
Confirm the stretch
Your conversion paperwork should list the stretch figure. If it says 130", you're on the right record. If it says anything else, or the builder's documents are gone, call before buying.
No linked kits
No siblings are attached, so there's no paired door kit on this sheet.
Made from
The 130" stretch limousine kit is six 2.25" strips for below the doors, cut in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel and held by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without marking the DeVille or DTS.
Inspecting the rocker
Walk the full length of the car with a light. The steel needs a sound, flat band about two and a quarter inches tall beneath the doors. Repair chips, then let the touch-up cure.
Prep along the whole length
Wash, rinse and dry. Then wipe the band with isopropyl alcohol, switching to a fresh cloth whenever the old one shows dirt. On a car this long you'll go through several.
Layout and marks
Sort the pieces using the photos and label each liner. Run painter's tape marks at one fixed distance below the door bottoms, close enough together that the line can't wander.
Installing
- Dry-fit each piece against the marks.
- Peel a short length of liner and set the starting end.
- Press along as the liner comes off.
- Finish with firm pressure from end to end.
Checking your work
Swing every door through its travel. Sight along the body from both ends so you catch any drift in the line. Hold off washing for a day.
A helper helps
Two people make long installs easier: one holds and aligns, the other presses. It also keeps the liner off the ground and the tape clean.
Weather
Choose a dry, mild day or work under cover. Let cold steel and panels warm before peeling, and keep the job out of direct midday sun.
Long-term care
Wash the trim with the rest of the body using mild soap, and dry it afterward. Don't chip ice off the steel with a scraper.

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.
