Product Description
Ten-Cover Pillar Post Trim for the Ford Escape 2013-2019, Keyless Touch Pad and Front Triangle (PP53363)
Ten covers, polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA, for $100.99: that's PP53363 for the Ford Escape. The fitment row reads Ford Escape 2013-2019, tagged 4-door, SUV, and the note reads "Includes keyless entry touch pad, Includes Front Triangle piece."
So two things are flagged. A front triangle piece is part of the ten, and the set is the touch pad version. The record doesn't describe either any further, so the photos are your guide to what the triangle looks like and how the touch pad wording plays out on the covers.
Its counterpart is PP53367, another ten-cover Escape set at the same price, noted "No keyless entry access, Includes Front Triangle piece." If your Escape has a keyless entry touch pad, this is the ten-cover set noted for it; if it doesn't, look at PP53367. Smaller sets follow the same split: PP53360 and PP53361 include the touch pad, PP53364 and PP53365 don't. PP53362 (eight covers) and PP53366 (six) carry no keyless note. None of these sets names its posts or gives widths.
Linked Escape trim, each sold on its own listing, includes door handle accents (DH53360), a gas door cover (GC53360), a rear deck accent (RD53360), rocker panel trim (TH53360), a trunk accent (TP53360), wheel well trim (WQ53360) and a window sill set (WS53360).
The row covers 2013 to 2019. Check your records, and if you'd like to go over the touch pad question, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP53363 and the year.
All ten are cosmetic covers. They dress the posts while the doors, side glass and weatherstrip work as before, and the 304 alloy keeps corrosion off by its own chemistry.
Every piece, triangle included, mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape laid over the existing paint or trim. You won't drill, and nothing comes off the Ford. Temperatures and cure time are on the Installation tab.
Ten posts mean the prep is the long part. Begin with soapy water, a rinse and a dry. Clear away wax and polish, and repair paint that's powdery, cracked or peeling, since the tape holds only as well as that layer. Degrease each post with rubbing alcohol on clean lint-free cloth, refolding until nothing transfers, then check by fingertip for dents.
Fit in the shade on a calm, dry day. Compare the ten with the gallery and tell us at once about any damage. Dry-fit each with its liner in place, ease it until the margin is even and mask its outline with low-tack painter's tape, pencilling numbers on the masks. Then one at a time: liner off, into the mask, steady pressure end to end and along both edges. Lift all the masks at the end, then step back and check every border, the triangle piece included.
A cover that rocks or won't sit down keeps its liner while you phone 877-752-3811. Once cured, wash with car soap and water and dry with a soft towel.

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.
