Product Description
12-Piece Stainless Pillar Kit for the Toyota Corolla 4-Door Sedan, 2020-2026 (PP70116)
Twelve pieces of polished stainless steel make PP70116 the second-largest pillar kit QAA catalogs for the Toyota Corolla sedan. The covers are listed for the 4-door Corolla, model years 2020 through 2026, and suit owners who want the window pillars thoroughly dressed in bright metal.
Pillars only, or the full package?
This is the main question for anyone considering a set this large. QAA's WP70112 is a twenty-six-piece full window package that includes upper trim, pillar posts, and window sills together. PP70116 covers pillars only. If you want the entire window outline in stainless, compare WP70112 with this kit; if you want only the pillars, or already have upper trim, this kit is the focused choice.
Twelve, by the maker's count
On QAA's website, PP70116 is the 12Pc Corolla kit, with 12 on its Number of Pieces line. This listing's title agrees with the maker and with the other Corolla kits. QAA at 877-752-3811 can answer questions about the contents.
The other pillar kits
The range runs four (PP70112), six (PP70113), eight (PP70114), ten with the rear triangle (PP70115), twelve (this kit), and fourteen (PP70117). All fit the same Corolla sedan. Coverage for each count is not mapped in the catalog, so use the photos.
Material
Made in the USA from 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, polished to a mirror finish. There is no plating to peel, and all twelve pieces share the same finish.
Installation
The covers attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. Nothing is removed. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
- Find each Corolla cover in the photos.
- Clean, dry, de-wax each pillar.
- Dry-fit each cover against the photos.
- Peel and press each Corolla cover along its length.
- Fit one at a time, comparing as you go.
Choose a dry, mild day and avoid washing for a few days. The Installation tab has the details.
Take your time
A twelve-piece kit is not difficult, but it rewards patience. Rushing the dry-fit is the usual reason one cover sits slightly off. Give yourself time and good light.
Matching accents
QAA lists WS70112 sill face trim, TH70112 lower rocker trim, RD70112 rear deck accent, LP70112 license plate bezel, LB70112 license bar, and GC70112 gas door cover trim for the same sedan.
Care
Rinse, wash with mild soap, and dry with a soft towel. Avoid abrasive pads, and never wipe the covers while they are gritty, since dust can leave fine marks on a mirror finish.
Why a pillar kit at all
The pillars are the upright posts between the side windows. Left as they are, they form a plain band between the glass. Polished covers turn them into a bright frame that catches the eye from any angle. Because the trim sits over the original surface, it is a cosmetic upgrade with nothing cut or removed, and it can be paired with any of the accents above on the Corolla; check each of those listings for its finish.

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.
