Product Description
Buick Rendezvous 2002-2008 Pillar Post Trim, Four Covers (PP42510)
For a Buick Rendezvous from 2002-2008, PP42510 offers four polished stainless pillar post covers at $56.99. They're cut from 26 gauge 304 stainless and made in the USA. The listing has one fitment row: Buick Rendezvous 2002-2008, tagged 4-door, SUV.
Your Buick. The row spans seven years and names the four-door SUV body. If your records matches both, the listing applies. If it doesn't, or you can't tell, call before ordering instead of guessing.
Four or six. The linked set PP42511 has six covers for the same Rendezvous row. Neither page offers notes, post names or widths, so the galleries are how to compare. Count the shapes in each, then match them to the posts on your SUV. Take the four here if they cover the posts you want; go with PP42511 if six suit you better.
Help with the choice. Quality Automotive Trims takes calls on 877-752-3811. Quote PP42510 and your year, and we'll look at both galleries with you so you can decide with the Buick in front of you.
Function. The covers are there for appearance. Each one covers a post beside a side window, and the doors, glass and seals work as usual. The 304 alloy itself is what resists corrosion.
Attachment. Each of the four is held by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape that bonds straight to the paint or trim your Buick's posts already wear. The SUV gets no new holes, and nothing has to be unscrewed or pried loose. Before you open the box, read the Installation tab, which spells out the temperature range for fitting and how long the tape should cure.
Getting ready. Remove wax and polish from the four posts and repair any chalking, crazing or peeling paint, since the tape holds onto that surface. Wash with car soap, rinse, and let them dry. Then wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, using a fresh fold until it comes away clean. Look for dents at the same time.
Tools. Very little is needed: car soap and a bucket, a bottle of rubbing alcohol, several lint-free cloths, a roll of painter's tape and a pencil. If someone can stand back by the Rendezvous while you hold each cover, their eye on the lines will save you guesswork.
Installing. Shade and a still, dry day are ideal. Check the four against the gallery and contact us about anything bent or missing. Liner on, hold a cover to the post its photo shows, centre it so the reveal is even, and tape around it. Remove the liner, set the cover inside the tape and press firmly along its length and down each edge. Look at it from a few steps back before fitting the next.
A cover that won't lie flush. Keep its liner on and call 877-752-3811 so we can work it out with you. Once the cure time is over, wash the Rendezvous covers with car soap and dry them 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.
