Product Description
Subaru Legacy 2015-2019 Twelve-Piece Pillar Post Set with Rear Most Triangle (PP15449)
PP15449 is twelve polished stainless pillar covers for the 2015-2019 Subaru Legacy sedan, and its note says precisely what it is: "Includes kit #PP15448 plus rear most triangle." In other words, the ten-piece Legacy kit plus the rear most triangle. The pieces are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and the fitment row (Subaru Legacy 2015-2019, 4-door, Sedan) matches the title.
Where it sits in the chain. Three Legacy listings link together through their notes. PP15448 (ten pieces) is the base. PP15449 (this set) takes in the rear most triangle. PP15444 (sixteen pieces) "Includes kit #PP15449 plus front most pieces." So this set sits in the middle: more than the base kit, less than the full sixteen. The note doesn't say how many covers make up the rear most triangle or how large they are, so look at the photos for those shapes.
Choosing. Want the rear most triangle but not the front most pieces? This is your set. Want both? PP15444 already includes this kit, so buy that instead, not both. Don't pair this set with PP15448 either, since its note says it already includes that kit. The four-, six- and eight-piece Legacy sets (PP15445, PP15446, PP15447) have no notes, and the catalog doesn't say how they relate to this chain; compare photos if you're considering one.
Mounting. Each Legacy cover attaches with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing posts, with no drilling and nothing removed.
The steel. Polished 304 has no plated finish to flake, and the 26 gauge sheet sits close on every surface.
Prep. Wash the Legacy's pillars and rear side glass surround with car shampoo, then rinse and dry. Go over each area with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth, let it flash off, and strip any wax or coating where tape will go.
Placement. On a towel, match the covers to the photos and set the rear most triangle pieces aside. Map the main pillar covers first, liners attached, marking each with painter's tape and writing its spot on the liner. Then hold the triangle pieces against their mapped neighbors and mark them too. Peel and press one cover at a time, firmly along its length and both edges. The Installation tab gives temperature range and cure time.
Reading the photos. Look for the triangle shapes first, then the ten covers they join. Compare the triangles' outlines with the rear side glass area of your own Legacy. If you're not sure where a piece goes, take a picture of that area and call before ordering.
Session. Choose a dry day out of strong sun, have a step stool and a helper to judge level, and take the triangles slowly.
Checks. Confirm a 2015-2019 Legacy sedan. On arrival, count twelve covers against the photos and find the triangle pieces first. If one won't sit flat, keep its liner on and call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with PP15449. Clean with ordinary car soap.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 12 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.
