Product Description
Infiniti I35 Door Pull Accent Trim, 4 Pieces of Polished Stainless, 2002-2004 Sedan (DH22044)
The note on DH22044 is just two words: "Pulls only." This four-piece polished stainless set trims the door handle pulls on the 2002-2004 Infiniti I35 4-door sedan, and nothing more. It is made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and goes on over the existing surface.
Pulls only, or the full set?
QAA lists two handle trim kits for this I35, and the notes make the difference clear:
- DH22044 (this set): four pieces, pulls only
- DH22045: twelve pieces, includes surround and pull
The pull is the part of the handle you grab. The surround is the area of the door around it. This smaller set trims only the pulls, one per door, for a subtle touch of stainless. The twelve-piece I35 kit has the surrounds for a bolder look. If you are not sure which suits your car, compare the photos of both.
Fitment
Infiniti I35, 4-door sedan, model years 2002, 2003, and 2004. That is the only row in the listing, and the Fitment tab shows it exactly as cataloged.
Material
Each piece is type 304 stainless steel at 26 gauge with a polished finish. Type 304 is a widely used grade, and the thin gauge helps the trim follow the curve of a pull. Made in the USA.
Installing pull trim
The trim uses 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and installs directly over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Pulls are the part of the handle hands touch most, so oils build up there. Clean each pull carefully with a degreaser and let it dry completely before you begin. Test the position with the liner on, then peel and press firmly for a few seconds. The Installation tab has more.
Pillar posts for the I35
QAA also lists two pillar post kits for the same sedan:
- PP22045: four-piece pillar post trim
- PP22046: six-piece pillar post trim
The data separates them only by piece count; the photos show which areas each covers. Pillar posts are a natural next step after handle trim; check each listing for its finish.
Why start small
Four pieces is a quick, affordable way to see how stainless looks on your I35. Pillar posts put trim at the window line. And if you later decide you want the surrounds too, the twelve-piece kit is the full version of this look.
Upkeep
Polished stainless is easy to keep looking good: wash it along with the rest of the car and wipe it dry. Because it sits on the pull, it gets handled constantly, so an occasional wipe keeps fingerprints off.
Before you order
Check that your car is an I35 sedan from the three listed years, and decide whether you want the pulls alone or the pulls plus surrounds. Ordering the right kit the first time is simpler than swapping later, so call us if the photos leave any doubt.

Installation tips: Door Handle Accent Trim
- 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.
