Product Description
PP23350 · Hyundai Sonata 2002-2005 Sedan · Four Stainless Pillar Covers
Four covers, polished 304 stainless, for the posts between the side windows of a 2002-2005 Hyundai Sonata 4-door sedan. PP23350 costs $56.99 and is made in the USA. It stands alone in the catalog, with no linked sibling sets, so there's just one count to consider.
Does it fit? The fitment row reads Hyundai Sonata, 2002-2005, 4-door, Sedan. That's four model years and a sedan body. A Sonata dated 2002 through 2005 takes PP23350. Anything outside that, or any doubt at all, is worth a call to Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811. Quote PP23350 so they can pull up the listing.
Which pillars? The listing doesn't say. There are no pillar names, no width and no further notes. The gallery shows the four shapes, and that's what to go by. Open it on your phone beside the Sonata and find a post for each shape. If one leaves you guessing, ask before ordering.
What's it made of? 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished. It's solid stainless rather than a plated coating, so a light scratch shows more of the same steel, and there's no chrome layer to lift or peel. It resists corrosion, and a normal wash keeps it bright.
How does it attach? Each cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape straight over the existing surface. You won't drill any holes or take off any of the Sonata's trim. The Installation tab gives the tape's temperature range and cure time, so read it before you start.
Does my car's finish matter? Yes, a lot. The tape grips whatever is on the posts now. If that finish has faded to a chalky film, developed fine cracks, or lifted at an edge, repair it first. Rub a fingertip along each post: dust on your finger means more work is needed. If the surface is smooth and firm, a careful clean is the only preparation.
What's the process? Pick a dry, calm day and park in the shade. Unpack the four covers and compare each with the photos; call if one is bent or missing. Wash and dry the posts, then wipe them with isopropyl alcohol until a fresh lint-free cloth stays clean. Check each Sonata cover against the photos. Hold each in place with its liner on, adjust it until the edges look even, and outline it with painter's tape. Peel the liner, set the cover in its outline, and press firmly along its length and both edges. Fit the next cover right after, then step back and compare.
And if a cover won't lie flat? Leave its liner on and phone 877-752-3811 rather than forcing it down.
What about care? After the cure time, wash with ordinary car soap and dry with a soft towel. The steel is listed as polished to a mirror shine.
How long will it take? Give it an unhurried session. The cleaning and marking take the longest; pressing the covers on is quick. A helper is useful for the dry fit.

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.
