Is that a LWB version or just normal?
'Limo' is just short for limousine. As such yours is a SWB, as opposed to the LWB.

The LWB is about four inches longer and that length is added behind the B-pillar, so it is evident in the rear doors. The attached images show the door cards for a SWB and LWB model. If you look to the left of the speaker grill in the door release handle, you'll see the extra width to the edge. You'll also see some extra fitment holes along the top where the trim piece goes. It's much easier to spot the difference on the D3 model.
