Product Description
Ford Taurus & Mercury Sable 1996-2007 Pillar Post Trim, Four Covers (PP36660)
PP36660's title and fitment record list two cars, the Ford Taurus 1996-2007 and the Mercury Sable 1996-2007, both tagged 4-door, Sedan. So the set is listed for a Sable sedan of those years just as much as a Taurus, and the twelve-year span is the same for each. Neither row carries a trim note, so the nameplate and year are the whole check.
It's four polished stainless pillar covers at $56.99, made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless. Nothing else is linked, so there's no six- or eight-cover version on this page to weigh it against. The record has no notes, names no posts and gives no widths, so the gallery shows where the four belong. Match each shape to a post on your car, one at a time. If all four land where you'd like polished steel, the set suits you. While you're out at the car, check each post's surface too, looking for any dent or old repair that would keep a flat cover from sitting evenly. Polished stainless forms the Taurus set's four covers.
Both rows treat twelve model years as one span. The listing doesn't divide them, so the photo check is the test whatever your year. Confirm that your car is a four-door sedan, Taurus or Sable, in that range. Any question, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811; quote PP36660, the make and the year.
The covers are cosmetic. Each lies over a post along the side glass, and the doors, windows and seals keep doing their jobs. Grade 304 stainless resists corrosion through its alloy, not a plated layer.
The four attach by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, which grips the paint or trim on the posts today, whether the car wears a Ford or Mercury badge. You won't drill and you won't remove any trim. The temperature range and cure time are on the Installation tab.
Before fitting day, look the four posts over. Dusty oxidation, crazing, an edge peeling up, or a layer of wax or polish all weaken the bond and need sorting out. Wash with car soap, rinse, let everything dry, and finish with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, wiping until a clean cloth shows nothing.
You'll need car soap, a bucket, alcohol, cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. A second person stepping back from the sedan can say whether the covers match.
Choose a calm, dry day in shade. Lay the four next to the photos and ring us about anything bent or missing. Liner on, hold a cover to its post, ease it until the gap is even, and run painter's tape round it. Peel the liner, lay the cover inside the tape, and press firmly along its length and both edges. Fit the next cover, compare the two, then do the last two.
A cover that won't sit flat should keep its liner while you phone 877-752-3811. After the cure, wash the covers with car soap and pat them dry with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 4 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.
