Product Description
Cadillac DeVille 2000-2005 & DTS 2006-2011 Stainless Fender Trim, 1.25" – WZ40245
WZ40245 is a four-piece Wheel Well Fender Trim set for two Cadillac sedans: the DeVille from 2000 to 2005 and the DTS from 2006 to 2011. The fitment entry reads 4-door, Sedan. The record gives a 1.25" width and lists screw-in installation.
Molded stainless
The material is molded stainless steel, given on the record as high quality and imported. QAA describes the trim as cut to perfection & polished to a mirror shine. It fastens with screws.
Screw-in installation
The record reads screw in installation, screws, hardware included, and another bullet says screws are provided. Plan on screws for all four pieces. If you want to know more about the fixing before you start, call 877-752-3811.
WZ40245-AP
A second listing, WZ40245-AP, has the same title, width, fitment and hardware and a different UPC. The record doesn't explain the "-AP" suffix; ask QAA which to order.
Matching Cadillac parts
The sibling list is long. Rocker trim comes as TH40243, an eight-piece lower kit at 6.5"; TH40245, an eight-piece lower kit at 4.5"; and TH40248, four pieces at 2.25" installed below the door. Both lower kits span from the bottom of the door up to their width. Pillar post sets include PP40245 with four pieces, PP40246 with six, and PP40246-OL, a six-piece outline trim with a 1/2" surround. PP40243 is tagged Federal Hearse, so check its listing before ordering it for a sedan.
Choosing the right years
The two model names carry different year ranges: DeVille 2000-2005, DTS 2006-2011. Check your car's badge and model year against the right one.
Measuring
Hold a tape across the area beside each wheel opening and compare it with 1.25". Then compare each opening with the photos; the record doesn't say which piece goes on which opening.
Before ordering
If the badge, year, width or shape doesn't line up, phone before ordering. Quote SKU WZ40245 and the UPC.
Planning the job
Pick a dry day and allow time to clean all four openings before fitting. Lay the pieces beside the car in photo order, and keep the screws in a small dish so none roll away.
Cleaning the openings
Wash round each opening with mild car shampoo, rinse and dry it. Use wax-and-grease remover on tar or old wax, then wipe with a clean cloth.
Fitting with screws
Hold each piece in position before driving any screws and check it against its photo. Once it lines up, fit the screws along its length so it seats evenly. Do a front opening, then the rear one behind it, then the remaining two.
On delivery
Check that four pieces and the screws are in the box, and leave the trim wrapped until fitting.
After fitting
Stand back and walk around the Cadillac. All four pieces should sit evenly. If one doesn't, stop and ring QAA rather than forcing it. Check the screws again after the first week, and keep any spares in the trunk.
Care
A soft mitt, gentle soap and a microfiber towel keep the stainless bright.
