Product Description
Toyota Highlander 2008-2013 Four-Piece Pillar Covers (PP28110)
PP28110 puts four polished stainless covers on the pillar posts of a 2008-2013 Toyota Highlander, tagged 4-door, SUV. The price is $67.99. Each piece is 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA.
The Highlander has a large family of trim in this catalog, and two of those listings are worth reading before you choose a pillar set. WP28110 is a window trim package noted "Includes Upper Trim, Pillar Posts and Window Sills - FULL Package". WP28111 is another, noted "Includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills". Both mention pillar posts, and neither listing compares its pillar pieces with this four-piece set. If you're considering a package as well as, or instead of, PP28110, look at the photographs side by side or call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 first. That avoids buying covers for the same posts twice.
Among the plain pillar listings, the choice is between this four-piece set and PP28111, a six-piece set that costs more. The listings don't say which pillars they cover or give widths, so compare galleries and your own posts. Buy one.
The year range is six model years with no gaps, and the title matches the record. A 2008-2013 Highlander is what the four covers are cut for. If your Highlander is from another year, call and quote PP28110.
The covers are styling pieces. Each slim polished panel lies on a post between the side windows, leaving the doors, glass and seals alone. Grade 304 stainless resists corrosion on its own, so there's no plating to wear and the only care is washing.
The 2008-2013 Highlander covers are fixed with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing pillars, so nothing is drilled or removed. The Highlander's temperatures and cure time are given on the Installation tab.
The finish on each post is what the tape bonds to, so it's worth getting right. Check for wax, a powdery or sun-faded surface, small cracks and edges that are lifting, and fix them. Wash with car soap, dry thoroughly, and wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth.
When the covers arrive, compare all four with the gallery and phone if one is damaged or missing. Check the four Highlander covers against the photos. With the backing still on, hold each cover in place and trace it with painter's tape. Walk to the front and rear of the SUV and check that the covers line up. Then peel and press one at a time, firmly along the length and both edges.
If a cover won't sit flat, keep its backing on and ring 877-752-3811. Choose a dry, mild, shaded day, with a step stool handy if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground. Keep the Highlander out of rain until the cure time has passed.
Before ordering, stand next to the Highlander with this gallery on your phone and match each of the four shapes to a post. If you're also eyeing one of the window packages, do the same with its photos, and note which posts each would cover. That gives you a clear picture to work from, or to describe if you call.

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.
