Product Description
Volkswagen Passat Sedan 2006-2010: Four-Piece Pillar Post Trim (PP26675)
PP26675 brings four polished stainless pillar covers to the 2006-2010 Volkswagen Passat, tagged 4-door, Sedan. At $56.99, made in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless, it's the four-cover option; the linked six-cover Passat set is PP26676.
Choosing between them is done by eye. Neither listing identifies its pillars or states a width, so open both galleries and study the outlines. Picture each piece on your Passat and ask whether you'd like bright steel there. If these four shapes are all you want, it's the lighter job and the smaller bill. If the six-piece photos come closer to your plan, go with those. Either way, it is a choice of one Passat page or the other.
The Passat page also links a spread of other trim, each with its own listing and price: an engine trim package (EP26675), head light accent trim (HL26675), a license plate bezel noted "No screw holes" (LP26675), accent trim noted "Front Marker Lights" (ML26675), rear deck accent (RD26675) and front grille accent trim (SG26675). None of those is part of this order; their own pages give their details.
Your records should read 2006-2010 and describe a sedan. If it doesn't, this listing isn't for your car. For questions, ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and quote PP26675.
The covers are pure dress-up: thin, bright panels over the posts between the side windows. Doors, glass and seals stay as they are. Grade 304 stainless fends off corrosion by itself, so there's no plating to scuff through. Car soap and a rinse keep it gleaming.
3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape holds each one, applied directly over the existing surface, with no drill and nothing to unclip. The Installation tab has the temperature window and cure time.
The tape latches onto whatever finish the posts carry now. So look closely: chalky bloom, fine cracking, a curling edge or a glaze of wax all need fixing first. Soap, rinse and dry, then wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth, changing cloths until one comes off clean.
For four covers on the Passat, set out car soap and a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a short stack of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. Ask a friend to stand a few steps off the sedan and say when the covers line up with each other.
Pick a mild, dry, still day in the shade. Count four covers, compare them with the photos, and call about anything bent or missing. Match each one to the photos. Liner on, rest each piece on its post, shift it until the reveal looks equal, and fence it in with painter's tape. Strip the liner, lower the cover into its fence, and press hard from end to end and along both edges. Fit another Passat cover straight after.
Anything that rocks or won't lie flush keeps its liner while you phone 877-752-3811. After curing, wash with car soap and pat dry with a soft towel. Budget an easygoing session, mostly cleaning. Before ordering, hold the gallery beside the Passat and give each of the four shapes a 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.
