Product Description
Cadillac DTS 2010 Superior Statesman Hearse Pillar Post Trim, Six Covers (PP40244)
PP40244 is a narrowly listed pillar set: six polished stainless covers for the Cadillac DTS, model year 2010 only, tagged "Superior Statesman Hearse." The title shows the year as "2010-2010," which is simply a single year. The set is $122.99, made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless.
The tag is the whole of the fitment description, and it's worth reading twice. The row has no body or door tags, and the listing doesn't explain anything further about the coachwork. Read it narrowly: a 2010 DTS carrying the Superior Statesman Hearse name. If your vehicle is a DTS sedan, or carries a different coachwork name, or is from a different year, this listing doesn't name it.
No other listings are linked to this page, and the record has no notes, post names or widths. That means the gallery is the only guide to where the six covers go, and with a specialist vehicle the photos deserve a careful look. Match each shape to a post on your vehicle. Then, before ordering, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP40244 and the details on your paperwork, so we can go over the fit together. Have the coachbuilder name from your paperwork to hand when you call, since that's the detail the listing turns on. The six DTS covers are stainless.
The covers are decorative. Each sits over a post beside the side glass, and the doors, windows and seals carry on as they are. Grade 304 resists corrosion through its alloy rather than plating, so there's no coating to lift.
All six mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, adhering to the posts' present paint or trim. No drilling, no trim removal. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Check each of the six posts before fitting day. A chalky film, fine crazing, a lifting edge, or old wax and polish should be sorted first, as the tape bonds only to the surface it meets. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry completely, and wipe with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, turning to a fresh face each pass until it comes away clean.
Lay out car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, plenty of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil, and arrange for a helper who can stand back and judge each cover.
Work in shade on a dry, calm day. Count the six against the gallery and phone us about anything bent or missing. Use the photos to put each DTS cover in its position. With the liner on, hold each cover to its post, nudge it until the reveal is even, and outline it with painter's tape. Peel the liner, lay the cover inside the outline, and press firmly from end to end and along both edges. Press on another cover before continuing.
If a cover sits proud, leave its liner attached and ring 877-752-3811. After curing, the six are washed with car soap and dried with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 6 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.
