Product Description
Volkswagen Touareg 2004-2010 Pillar Post Covers, Set of Four (PP24640)
For the 2004-2010 Volkswagen Touareg 4-door SUV, PP24640 offers four polished stainless pillar covers at $67.99, made in the USA. Its linked alternative is PP24641, a six-piece set for the same Touareg, and a rocker panel kit, TH24640, is linked as a separate product.
Which of the two pillar sets suits you comes down to what the photos show. The catalog doesn't name the pillars for either one and gives neither a width nor a note. Open both galleries and note any outline the six-piece photos show that these don't. Then decide which areas of your Touareg you actually want in polished steel. If these four shapes are all you want, this is the smaller job. If you'd prefer what the six-piece photos show, choose that set. Look at both Touareg galleries before ordering, or ring us.
The Touareg fitment row runs from 2004-2010, seven model years, 4-door SUV. PP24640 covers the Touareg across 2004 to 2010. Anything unclear, or a vehicle outside that range? Phone Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and quote PP24640.
The covers are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless. That grade resists corrosion, and since nothing is plated on, there's no coating to wear through. They're cosmetic, giving the posts between the side windows a bright face without any structural change. A wash keeps them clean.
To mount them, each cover has 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and it goes directly over the existing surface. You won't drill or remove trim. Check the Installation tab for the tape's temperature range and cure time first.
The tape's grip depends on the posts. Look at each one for a chalky haze, a cracked texture, a lifting edge or a buildup of old wax. Repair damage, strip wax, then wash and dry. Finish with rubbing alcohol, wiping until a fresh lint-free cloth stays clean.
Gather supplies before you start: mild car soap and water, rubbing alcohol, plenty of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and, ideally, a helper to hold covers while you judge the lines.
For the fitting, a dry, still, shaded day is best. Unpack the four covers and compare each with the photos, calling if anything's bent or missing. The Touareg photos are the guide for each cover. Offer each up with the backing on, shuffle it until the edges look right, and trace around it with painter's tape. Peel, set it into the outline and press hard along the length and both edges. Do the next cover straight away so you can compare the two. A step stool helps if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground.
If any cover won't sit flat, keep its backing on and call 877-752-3811. After the cure time, wash with car soap and dry with a soft towel.
Plan an unhurried session. Most of the time goes on prep and marking. Before you order, take the gallery out to the Touareg and make sure each of the four shapes has an obvious home.

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.
