Product Description
Ford Flex 2009-2019 Four-Cover Pillar Post Trim (PP49340)
Four polished stainless covers for the Ford Flex's pillar posts make up PP49340. The listing runs from 2009 to 2019 and the set is $84.49. Each cover is 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA. The fitment record has one row: Ford Flex 2009-2019, tagged 4-door, SUV.
That's eleven model years of the four-door Flex. PP49340 carries a Flex row from 2009 to 2019. If it's outside the 2009 to 2019 span, or you'd like it confirmed, please call before ordering.
The Flex has two larger linked pillar sets, PP49341 with six covers and PP49342 with eight. No record in the trio names posts, lists widths or includes notes. Comparing the three galleries is the clearest way to judge how much of the Flex's side glass each set frames.
Two wheel well accent sets, WQ49340 and WQ49341, are also linked; their pages show their tags, which are worth reading on their own before you order either alongside these covers.
Before any liner comes off, take the gallery out to the Flex and hold each photo up to its post. Decide all four placements, and keep back any shape that doesn't line up.
For a second opinion on the shapes, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and quote PP49340 with the model year.
These four are appearance pieces. They cover posts by the windows without affecting the doors, glass or seals. 304 stainless resists corrosion on its own; nothing is plated.
Each one mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape onto the paint or trim on its post now. There are no holes to drill and no trim to remove from the Flex. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and how long the tape needs to cure.
The posts set the limit on the bond. Remove wax and polish from each of the four, and repair paint that's chalky, crazed or flaking. Wash with car soap, rinse and dry fully. Then wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth, refolding until a fresh fold comes away clean, and feel along for dents.
For four covers on the Flex you need little: a roll of low-tack painter's tape for tabs and outlines, a pencil, a bottle of rubbing alcohol, a bucket of car-soap water and a few clean lint-free cloths. If you can't see the top of a post square on from the ground, bring out a step stool.
Choose a calm, dry day out of the sun. Check the four against their photos and report anything damaged. Number each post on painter's tape. Liner on, set the first cover on its post, ease it until the margin is even and tape round it. Peel, place it inside the tape and press firmly along its length and both edges. Look it over, then fit the next.
A cover that won't settle along its length should keep its liner on while you phone 877-752-3811. Once cured, the four need only car soap, water and 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.
