Product Description
Chevrolet Equinox 2018-2024 Two-Piece Stainless License Bar (LB58160)
LB58160 is a license bar in two pieces rather than one. It is cataloged as a License Plate Bar Accent, with a piece count of two, for the Chevrolet Equinox 4-door SUV, model years 2018 through 2024. That's seven years on one fitment row, with no trim exclusions listed.
About the two pieces
The catalog gives the count but not the arrangement. It doesn't say whether the pieces sit side by side, one above the other, or on either side of something on the liftgate, and it lists no width. We won't guess. The product photos show the layout, so treat them as your installation map. If the area above your plate doesn't look like the photos, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and give the part number LB58160 before ordering.
Material and mount
Each piece is 26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA. The two Equinox pieces attach over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so there are no holes to drill. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Installing a pair above the plate
Start with the photos open on your phone. Wash the liftgate around the plate, rinse, dry and wipe with rubbing alcohol twice. Set both pieces in place with the liners on, copying the layout in the photos, then step back. Each piece should be the same distance from the plate and at the same height. Confirm with a tape measure. Mark the outside ends with painter's tape. Install the first piece, check the second against it, then install that one. Press both firmly along their full length and again a minute later. Close the liftgate gently for the first day. The Installation tab lists the temperature range.
Equinox parts on the same sheet
Eleven other parts are cross-listed. At the back, RD58160 is a one-piece part cataloged as Rear Deck Accent at 2", and RW58160 a two-piece rear window trim. PP58160 and PP58161 are pillar post kits of four and six pieces. TH58160 is an eight-piece upper rocker kit at 1" that spans from the bottom of the cladding up. GC58160 is a one-piece gas door cover trim. WS58160 is a four-piece window sill set at 0.5", noted Face of sills only. LP58160, RB58160, WQ58160 and WQ58161 are named by number only on this sheet. Check each listing's photos for its finish.
Confirming the vehicle
Check your Equinox's year against the listed range first. Anything from 2018 to 2024 badged Equinox is on the listing.
Paint first
Check the area for chips, lifting clear coat or old adhesive and fix them first. Tape holds only as well as the paint under it.
Why read the photos closely
With two pieces and no layout note, the photos are effectively the instructions. Look at them from the same angle you'll view the liftgate.
Care
Mild soap, water and a soft towel. Leave abrasive pads out of it.

Installation tips: License Plate Bar Accent
- Unpack all 2 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.
