Peterbilt 567/579 Door & Cab Side Acc.

Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 567/579 Door & Cab Side Acc.

What kinds of products are included in this category?

This category covers exterior door and cab side accessories for Peterbilt 567 and 579 models, including items such as door handle covers, cab side panels, mirror brackets and covers, cab molding trim, door hinge covers, and other decorative or protective components that mount to the door and side of the cab. These parts are primarily designed to enhance appearance and protect factory surfaces from wear.

Will these parts fit my specific Peterbilt model year?

Most items are designed specifically for the 567 and 579 cab styles, but fitment can vary depending on the exact model year, cab configuration, and whether your truck has factory or aftermarket components already installed. Always check the product listing for specific model year compatibility notes, and compare your existing hardware or panel dimensions before ordering if you are unsure.

What materials and finishes are available?

Depending on the specific product, you will typically find options in stainless steel, chrome-plated plastic or steel, and painted or textured finishes. Stainless steel and chrome finishes are popular for their durability and resistance to corrosion, while textured or painted options are often chosen to match specific cab colors or reduce glare.

Do these accessories require drilling or permanent modification to install?

It depends on the product. Many door and cab side accessories are designed as direct bolt-on or adhesive-backed replacements that use existing factory mounting points, requiring no drilling. Others, particularly certain trim or panel pieces, may require drilling or additional hardware. Installation instructions or notes are typically included in the product description, so review these before purchasing if drilling is a concern.

How do I clean and maintain these accessories to keep them looking good?

For chrome and stainless steel pieces, regular washing with mild soap and water followed by a dedicated metal polish will help maintain shine and prevent corrosion, especially in areas with road salt or heavy exposure to the elements. Painted or textured accessories should be cleaned with non-abrasive cleaners to avoid scratching the finish. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners on any chrome-plated plastic components, as they can cause discoloration or peeling over time.
