Product Description
Honda Pilot 2016-2022 Polished Stainless License Bar, 0.75" Wide (LB16260)
Unlike many of QAA's license bars, LB16260 comes with a measurement: 0.75" wide. That figure tells you how tall the polished stainless strip will look above your Pilot's plate, and it's the detail buyers ask about first. The part fits the Pilot 4-door SUV, model years 2016 through 2022, which is seven years on a single fitment row.
Specs at a glance
One piece. Cataloged as a License Plate Bar Accent. Material is 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA. Width 0.75". Mounting is 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, installed directly over the existing surface, with no drilling. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. The sheet has no note about key access or cutouts, so check the photos against your liftgate.
Not to be confused with RD16260
The Pilot list includes RD16260, a one-piece part cataloged as a Rear Deck Accent, and it is also listed at 0.75". Same width, same vehicle, different part type and part number. The catalog doesn't describe where RD16260 sits relative to this bar, so compare the two listings' photos before you choose one or both. If you're unsure which you want, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention LB16260.
About the plate area
LP16260, the license plate bezel for this Pilot, is noted as including access for a rear backup camera. This bar's own listing has no such note. Look at where the camera sits on your liftgate and compare it with the product photos for LB16260, so you know the bar and the camera won't compete for the same space. When in doubt, a quick phone call settles it.
Installing
Clean the surface with soap and water and dry it. Follow with rubbing alcohol and let it flash off. Dry-fit with the liner on and look from behind the vehicle to set it level and centered. Mark the ends with painter's tape, peel, and press firmly along the full length. Avoid slamming the liftgate for the first day. The Installation tab lists the temperature range.
What 0.75" looks like
Before ordering, lay a ruler or tape measure flat against the liftgate just above the plate and look at a 0.75" band from where someone behind you would stand. That gives you a fair preview of the bar's height. The length isn't stated on the sheet, so the photos remain the guide for how far it runs from side to side. If you want something more noticeable, compare it against the other rear parts on the list.

Installation tips: License Plate Bar Accent
- 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.
