Product Description
Cadillac Seville 1998-2004 Lower Rocker Trim, 4.75", 8 Pieces (TH38236)
TH38236 puts a 4.75" band of polished stainless steel along the bottom of the doors on a 1998-2004 Cadillac Seville sedan. It's an eight-piece Rocker Panel Trim Lower Kit whose note reads "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Lower or upper
QAA links a second Seville rocker kit, TH38238. It's a six-piece Upper Kit that hangs "from the bottom of the molding DOWN," and its listed width is 9.375"-10.125", roughly twice this kit's height. The two start from opposite edges: this one from the door bottom, that one from the molding. The record doesn't say they're designed to be combined, and with those widths they may overlap on your car, so treat them as alternatives unless we confirm otherwise at 877-752-3811.
Picturing it
Put a strip of painter's tape four and three-quarter inches up from the bottom of one door. That's where the top edge of this kit lands. Step back and look from a few paces away.
Other parts in the group
- LP38236: one-piece license plate bezel.
- PP38236: four-piece pillar post trim.

Each listing carries its own finish and fit details.
Material and mounting
QAA makes the eight Seville pieces in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel; they attach over the existing door surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the Cadillac.
Eight pieces
The record doesn't map them to doors or panels. Use the product photos to sort the pieces, then label each liner.
The lower edge
Every piece's bottom follows the door's bottom edge, so inspect that edge first. Chips and rust there should be repaired and cured before trim covers them.
Fitting
- Wash, dry and wipe the bottom of each door with isopropyl alcohol.
- Hold each piece in place with painter's tape and check it against the photos.
- Peel a few inches of liner, fix the end, and press the Seville piece along.
- Press hard over each Seville piece.
Level line
Before pressing the next piece, sight along the car from the front. The top edges should read as one line from front to rear.
Doors
Open each door all the way once its piece is on and watch the lower edge for contact.
What to gather
Tape measure, painter's tape, a marker, car soap, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free towels and a plastic trim tool. Choose a dry, mild day in the shade.
Care
Give the Seville a day, then wash with mild soap and soft cloths.
Seville spacing
Measure each piece's position and keep the spacing even along the car.
Before you order
Confirm a 1998-2004 Seville four-door sedan, then decide which edge you want the steel to follow: the door bottom here, or the molding on the taller linked kit. If your car has had lower body repairs, mention them when you call 877-752-3811 so we can check the fit.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 8 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.
