Product Description
PP10833: Ten-Piece Stainless Pillar Post Trim for the 2010-2013 Kia Soul
PP10833 is the largest pillar post set on this sheet for the 2010-2013 Kia Soul 4-door hatchback, with ten polished stainless pieces. Smaller sets with the same tags are PP10830 (4), PP10831 (6) and PP10832 (8). None of the four listings names its pillars or has a note, so the product photos are the way to see what ten pieces cover compared with the others.

Ten pieces or the window package?
The sheet also shows WP10831, a 16-piece Window Trim Package noted "Includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills." Since that package includes pillar posts, it's worth deciding between it and a pillar-only set rather than buying both. The catalog doesn't say whether the package's pillar pieces match these ten.

Confirming fit
The title and row agree on 2010-2013. Ten covers, for a Soul dated 2010 through 2013.
Organizing ten pieces
This is where the job is won. On a towel, divide the ten Soul pieces by the gallery and put them in front-to-back order. Carry them to the car and hold each against its pillar with the liner on. Write a short code on every liner when the fit is confirmed, and mark each piece's ends on the car with painter's tape. A piece that won't sit right may belong on another pillar. If it still doesn't fit anywhere, stop and call us with a photo.
Preparing the surface
Wash, rinse and dry the pillars. Wipe with rubbing alcohol on a clean cloth and let it evaporate. Strip wax or sealant from the contact areas, and repair any chipped or peeling finish first; older paint near the glass deserves a close look.
Installing
Work a few covers at a time. Peel a liner, set the piece to its marks, press firmly along its full length, and seat both edges with a fingertip. Continue until half the pieces are on, check them from a few steps back, then fit the rest and compare. A dry day inside the Installation tab's temperature range is best. Wait the listed cure time before washing.
Other parts listed
GC10830 is a 1-piece gas door cover trim, PB10830 a 2-piece porthole accent noted "Center Strip," and MI10830 a 4-piece body molding insert kit with garbled width figures in the record. Seven more are listed by number only.
Give it time
Ten pieces is a longer job than a small set. Plan it for a day when you won't be rushed, so each piece gets a careful dry fit and a firm press.
Care
Use mild soap, water and a soft cloth on the ten pieces; abrasive pads and steel wool would scratch them.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 10 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.
