Product Description
Ford F-150 Super Cab 2004-2008 Stainless Door Sill Trim, 4 Pieces, Tapered 2.25"-2.625" (DS44302)
Here's the detail that sets DS44302 apart: its width is tapered, running from 2.25" to 2.625". This four-plate set of polished stainless door sill trim is listed for the 2004-2008 Ford F-150 Super Cab, 4-door pickup, and it's made in the USA from 304 stainless steel at 26 gauge.
Super Cab, not Crew Cab
QAA's F-150 sill sets for these years are split by cab. This one, DS44302, fits the Super Cab. Its counterpart, DS44316, is a four-piece set listed at 2.63" for the Crew Cab. Check your cab before ordering, because the two aren't interchangeable on the listings. The Fitment tab shows the row: Ford F-150, 2004-2008, 4-door, Pickup Truck, Super Cab.
Why a taper
The catalog lists the width as tapered, 2.25"-2.625", meaning the plates narrow from one end to the other. It doesn't say which end is wider, so check the photos and dry-fit before peeling the liners. Measure your sills to make sure that range sits comfortably.
The steel
Polished 304 stainless, 26 gauge. Thin sheet, bright because the metal is polished rather than coated.
Mounting
For the 2004-2008 F-150 Super Cab, the four plates mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing sill surface, without drilling. QAA states that tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the truck's surface.
Lots of F-150 trim
Many related listings for this truck are cross-referenced. A few on this sheet: GC44308 gas door cover trim and the MC44308 two-piece mirror cover set, both for 2-door and 4-door pickups, and a series of body molding insert kits at 1.5 split by cab, bed and flares, such as MI44301 and MI44303 for the Super Cab with flares in 5.5 and 6.5 beds. Many more MI, TH, PP, WQ and other listings follow; check each one's fitment, since cab and bed matter.
Prep
Truck sills see mud, gravel and boots. Vacuum out the grit, wash, rinse and degrease thoroughly. Inspect the paint, which needs to be sound for the tape to hold. Dry completely.
Install
Sort the four plates by door using the photos. Open the first door, dry-fit the plate with the liner on, confirm the taper runs the right direction, and mark the ends with painter's tape. Peel, align, and press firmly from end to end; then press again after a minute. Fit the next plate the same way and compare before moving on. The Installation tab has full prep.
What a sill plate is
The threshold at the bottom of each door opening, the step into the cab, covered with a polished plate.
Why sill plates
The sill is the step you cross every time you climb in, and it sees steady foot traffic. Polished plates make the openings look clean, and they lie flat so doors close normally.
Checklist
Super Cab, 2004-2008; sills measured against the taper; paint inspected.
Afterward
Stay off the plates until the next day. Mild, dry weather.
Care
Mild soap on a soft cloth handles routine cleaning.

Installation tips: Door Sill 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.
