Product Description
Volkswagen Arteon 2019-2023 Pillar Post Trim, Two Pieces (PP19660)
PP19660 is a two-piece set of polished stainless pillar post trim for the 2019-2023 Volkswagen Arteon, which the listing tags as a 4-door sedan. It's listed at $62.49. The sheet links one other Arteon pillar set, PP19661, with four pieces and the note "Includes Front Triangle piece". This two-piece set has no note, so there's no front triangle in it.
Two or four? That's the main choice here. On paper, the difference is the count plus that front triangle note on the larger set. Neither listing names the pillars covered or gives a width, so the photos are the best way to see what each set includes. Compare the two shapes in this gallery with the four in the other. If the front triangle piece matters to you, the four-piece set is the one that lists it. If two covers give you the look you're after, this set is the simplest fit. Buy one set or the other; look at each set's photos side by side.
Fitment. Volkswagen Arteon, 2019-2023, 4-door, Sedan, on one row. Five model years. If your Arteon's year isn't in that range, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and quote PP19660 before ordering.
Checking the shapes. Before you buy, open the photos on your phone and stand beside the car. Find where each of the two covers would sit. If either has no obvious place, call first; it's far easier to sort out before the parts ship.
Material. 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished and made in the USA. There's no plating, so the bright finish is the metal itself and can't peel or flake.
Mounting. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. No drilling and no removal of any trim. Read the Installation tab for the tape's temperature range and cure time, and follow those over anything here.
What you'll need. Mild car soap, a sponge, isopropyl alcohol, a lint-free cloth or two and some painter's tape.
Preparation. Choose a dry, mild day and a shaded spot. Unpack both covers and compare them with the photos. If one is bent, call before you start. Wash the two pillar areas with soap and water, rinse and dry. Then wipe each with isopropyl alcohol and let it evaporate. Any wax or ceramic coating on those faces must come off, because the tape bonds to a bare, clean surface.
Placement. Hold the first cover against its pillar with the liner still on and adjust until both edges sit right. Outline it with a few strips of painter's tape. Do the same with the second cover.
Fixing. Peel the first liner, set the cover into its outline and press firmly from one end to the other, then along each edge. Repeat with the second cover. Step back and compare the two covers.
If it won't lie flat. Leave the liner on and phone 877-752-3811.
Care. When the cure time is over, the Arteon's two covers wash with ordinary car soap and dry with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 2 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.
