Product Description
GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook Stainless Tailgate Handle Accent Ring, 1 Piece (DH47425)
DH47425 is a single polished stainless accent ring for the rear handle on two GM SUVs: the 2007-2011 GMC Acadia and the 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. QAA catalogs both as 4-door SUVs. The ring is made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and installs over the existing surface.
Fitment
- GMC Acadia, 2007-2011, five model years
- Saturn Outlook, 2007-2010, four model years
Both start in the same year, but the Outlook row ends a year earlier, so match your vehicle to its own row. The Fitment tab shows both exactly as QAA records them. No companion parts are cross-listed with this SKU.
Stainless, not plastic
Unlike chrome-plated covers, this ring is metal. Type 304 is one of the most widely used stainless grades, and QAA forms it at 26 gauge so it lies flush around the handle, then polishes it to a bright, mirror-like finish. It is made in the USA.
One piece
There is just the ring. The catalog does not give its dimensions or exact outline, so the product photos show how it frames the handle.
Installation
On the Acadia or Outlook, the ring mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface, with no drilling. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime and won't damage the SUV's surface.
- Wash the area around the rear handle.
- Use degreaser to lift wax and road film.
- Let the area dry completely.
- Center the ring over the handle with the liner on, checking from directly behind the Acadia and from a slight angle.
- Peel the liner and press firmly all the way around for several seconds.
Avoid closing the liftgate hard or washing the SUV for a while so the tape can bond. The Installation tab has the full process.
A quick upgrade
One piece and one surface make this among the fastest trim jobs you can do. It's a simple way to see polished stainless on your Acadia's paint, and it gives the rear a finished detail you notice every time you load cargo.
Marking the spot
A small strip of painter's tape placed beside the ring while the liner is still on gives you a reference to return to after peeling. Remove the guide once the ring is pressed down.
Conditions
Choose a dry, mild day in the shade. The rear of an SUV collects road spray, so give the seams around the handle a second degreaser pass.
Acadia or Outlook, same ring
Because QAA catalogs the same ring for both SUVs, a household with one of each can order the same part number twice, as long as each vehicle falls inside its listed years. Double-check the Outlook's year in particular, since its row is one year shorter.
Care
Clean the ring along with the rest of the SUV and dry it with a soft towel. Harsh compounds and abrasive pads can dull the polished stainless.

Installation tips: Tailgate Handle Accent Trim Ring
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
