Product Description
Ten-Cover Stainless Pillar Post Trim with Rear Vertical Strip, Escalade ESV, Suburban & Yukon XL 2015-2020 (PP55199)
The set. PP55199 has ten mirror-polished pillar post covers in 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, for $122.99. Its title and the record's three rows name the Cadillac Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL, all 2015-2020, tagged 4-door, ESV, XL and SUV.
The note. The record reads "Includes the vertical strip for the rear most pillar section". We quote it exactly. It's the one detail the record gives about which areas the ten covers reach, and the gallery shows the full set laid out.
ESV, XL and Suburban rows only. Every row names an ESV, XL or Suburban. A standard-length Escalade or Yukon isn't listed for PP55199, so check which version you have from its badging, and call us if it's unclear.
Eight or ten. PP55198 is the eight-cover set on the same three rows, and it has no note. Since neither record lists posts, compare the two galleries with your SUV, paying particular attention to the rearmost pillar area the note describes.
Years and phone. All three rows span 2015 to 2020. The ten-piece row runs 2015 to 2020. Quality Automotive Trims is on 877-752-3811; give PP55199, the make, model and year.
Cosmetic. All ten covers are there for appearance. Doors, glass and seals behave exactly as before, and the 304 alloy keeps corrosion away by its own chemistry, without a plated skin.
Mounting. Each piece, the vertical strip included, mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape set on the existing surface. No drilling, nothing removed. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure period, so read it before choosing the day.
Prep. Ten pieces means ten surfaces, so take them in order and finish one before moving to the next. Soapy water first, then a rinse, then a dry that leaves no droplets. Any wax, sealant or polish has to come off, because the tape needs bare paint or trim. Where the paint is chalky, crazed or flaking, get it repaired before fitting, since the bond can be no sounder than the coat beneath. Last, rubbing alcohol on clean lint-free cloth, turned to a fresh face each time, until nothing more comes away. Check each surface for dents with your fingertips, and have low-tack painter's tape, a pencil and a towel close by.
Fitting. Choose a dry, still day and a shaded spot. Sort the ten by position beside the gallery and report any damage at once. Dry-fit each with its liner on until the border is even, mask its outline and number every mask. Then one at a time: peel, set in the mask, press firmly along its full length and both edges. Lift all the masks after the last piece is on and check every margin. A break halfway through does no harm.
Help. If any piece won't lie flat on your Escalade ESV, Suburban or Yukon XL, stop with its liner on and phone 877-752-3811. After curing, wash the covers 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.
