Product Description
Mercury Milan 2006 Stainless Door Sill Trim, 2 Pieces (DS46470)
DS46470 is listed for a single model year: the 2006 Mercury Milan 4-door sedan. These are two polished stainless door sill plates for the Milan in 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, made in the USA. Each plate mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
Check the year carefully
The fitment row reads Mercury Milan, 2006-2006, 4-door Sedan. Only that one year is listed. Check the Milan's model year before ordering. If your Milan is from a different year, this listing doesn't cover it, and the Fitment tab is where to double-check.
Two plates for a sedan
The Milan has four doors, and this set has two pieces. The catalog doesn't say which openings the plates are made for. Look at the product photos to see their shape, and call us before ordering if you want to confirm they cover the doors you're thinking of. No width or length is listed either, so the photos are the main reference.
Door sills, briefly
The sill is the threshold at the bottom of a door opening, the strip you step across when getting in. A sill trim plate lays polished steel over it.
The steel
Type 304 stainless at 26 gauge. It's a thin sheet, polished so the shine is the steel's own surface rather than a coating.
How they attach
On the 2006 Milan, both plates go over the existing sill surface without drilling. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the sedan's surface.
Getting ready
Start by vacuuming the sill to lift grit out of the corners. Wash with soapy water, rinse, and wipe with a degreaser. If a vinyl dressing or protectant has been used, take it all off, because tape won't hold well over it. Check that the paint is firmly attached where the plates will go. Let the surface dry fully.
Putting them on
Open the door and set a plate on the sill with the liner still attached. Slide it until the ends look even, then mark each end with a short strip of painter's tape. Peel the liner, line the plate up with your marks, and press down firmly along the whole length. Go back after a minute and press again. Do the second plate the same way. The Installation tab gives the complete prep.
Why add sill trim
The door opening is one of the first things you see as you get in, and the sill is right at your feet. A polished plate makes that area look finished, and since it lies flat, the door closes the same as always.
Before ordering
Year is 2006, car is the Milan sedan, photos match your sills.
Afterward
Avoid stepping on the plates for the rest of the day. Install on a mild, dry day out of direct sun.
Care
Mild soap and a soft cloth. No steel wool.

Installation tips: Door Sill trim
- Unpack all 2 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.
