Product Description
Chevrolet Malibu 1997-2003 Sedan Pillar Post Trim, Four Stainless Covers (PP37105)
PP37105 is a four-cover pillar post set for the Chevrolet Malibu sedan, model years 1997-2003. The price is $56.99. All four covers are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, and the row is tagged 4-door, Sedan.
How much the listing tells you. Not a great deal beyond those facts. The record has no notes, names none of the posts and gives no widths, and no other listing is linked to it. So the gallery carries the detail. Each photo shows a shape; your job before ordering is to find the post on your Malibu that each shape belongs to. Stand at the front corner of the car and work back, then carry on around it. Take the photos with you on a phone so you can hold each one up to the post it seems to match.
Deciding. If every shape finds a post and those are the posts you want brightened, the set is right for you. If one shape looks wrong for your car, or you're not sure four covers match your plan, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 before ordering and quote PP37105 with your year.
The years. Seven model years share one row. Nothing within that span is singled out, so the check is the same for any of them. Check the car is a four-door sedan from 1997 to 2003.
What they do. They change the look of the posts and nothing more. Each cover lies over a post beside the side glass; the Malibu's doors, windows and seals are unchanged. The stainless is grade 304, which resists corrosion by its alloy, not a plated surface.
Mounting. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape attaches each cover to the post's current paint or trim. There's no drill involved and none of the Chevrolet's trim comes off. Plan around the temperature range and cure time on the Installation tab.
Preparation. The tape holds to whatever surface it meets, so make that surface right. Strip old wax and polish; repair chalky, cracked or lifting patches. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry thoroughly, and wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths until a fresh cloth has nothing on it.
Tools. Car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. If someone can help, have them judge each cover from the front and back of the car.
Fitting. Shade, a dry day, no wind. Check the four against the photos and call us about anything bent or missing. Liner still attached, set a cover on its post, adjust until the reveal is even, and outline it in painter's tape. Peel the liner, place the cover in the outline, and press firmly along its whole length and both edges. Fit the next one, compare the two, then do the last two.
Afterward. A Malibu cover that rocks or lifts once placed shouldn't be pressed harder; keep its liner on and give us a call on 877-752-3811. When the cure time is up, clean the four along with the car, using car soap, and dry them gently 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.
