Product Description
Cadillac DeVille & DTS S&S Six-Door Limousine Pillar Post Trim, Eight Covers (PP40248)
PP40248 is an eight-cover pillar set listed for S&S six-door limousines built on the Cadillac DeVille and DTS. It's $150.49, with every cover polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA. The title and the record both reach back to the 2000 DeVille as well as the 2006-2011 DTS.
The fitment record has two rows. The Cadillac DeVille 2000-2005 is tagged 6-door, S&S Limousine, 6-Door. The DTS row is named "Cadillac DTS (Cadillac S&S 6-Door Limo)" for 2006-2011, with the same tags. So both rows point to an S&S six-door limousine, and the DeVille years belong to the listing, as the title shows. A standard DeVille or DTS sedan isn't named here; for the sedan, look for a listing whose row is tagged Sedan instead.
No other listings are linked. The record has no notes, doesn't name the eight posts and gives no widths. With a coachbuilt vehicle, please treat the gallery as a starting point rather than the final word: match each shape to a post on your limousine, then call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 before ordering, even if every shape seems to match. Quote PP40248, the year and the coachbuilder details from your paperwork.
The covers are for looks. Each lies over a post beside the side glass, and the doors, windows and seals carry on as before. Grade 304 resists corrosion through its alloy, without plating, so the polish isn't a coating that can lift away.
Each of the eight mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape that adheres to the posts' existing finish. Nothing is drilled and no trim is removed. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time, and with eight covers it's worth allowing a generous window.
Eight posts need preparing. Check each for a powdery bloom, fine cracks, a lifting edge, or wax and polish residue, and correct what you find, because the tape grips the surface directly. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry completely, and wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, changing cloths until one comes away clean.
Gather car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a large stack of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. A helper can stand back and compare each cover, since eight give you a lot of lines to keep even.
Choose a calm, dry day in shade. Count the eight against the photos and ring us about anything bent or missing. Lay them out by position on a clean surface, following the photos. Liner on, hold each cover to its post, adjust until the gap is even, and outline it with painter's tape. Lift the liner, place the cover in the outline, and press firmly from end to end and along both edges. Fit the next one after it.
A cover that stands proud keeps its liner while you call 877-752-3811. Once the tape has cured, the eight wash with car soap and dry with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 8 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.
