Product Description
Kia Soul 2010-2013 Pillar Post Trim, 4-Piece Polished Stainless (PP10830)
The 2010-2013 Kia Soul 4-door hatchback has four pillar post sets on this sheet, and PP10830 is the smallest: four pieces. The larger sets are PP10831 (6 pieces), PP10832 (8) and PP10833 (10), all with the same fitment tags. None of the four Soul listings names its pillars, so it's the product photos that show what each larger set covers.
Check the window package first
Before ordering any pillar set for this Soul, look at WP10831, a 16-piece Window Trim Package noted "Includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills." Since it already includes pillar posts, buying it plus a pillar set could mean doubling up. The catalog doesn't say whether the package's pillar pieces are the same as any of these sets. If you're weighing the package against a pillar-only set, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention PP10830. WP10830 and WP10832 also appear on the sheet, by number only, so check their listings too.
This set
Four pieces of 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, made in the USA. They attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, installed directly over the existing surface; no drilling, nothing removed.
Fitment
Kia Soul, 2010 through 2013, 4-door, hatchback, with the title in agreement. PP10830 covers Souls from 2010 to 2013.
Why the smallest set
A four-piece set has the fewest parts to sort and place. If the pillars in its photos are the ones you care about, it's the simplest route to stainless around the windows, and a good first project before larger trim.
Prep and install
Wash the pillars with soapy water and dry them. Wipe with rubbing alcohol and let it evaporate. Remove wax or sealant from the bonding area and repair any chipped finish. Then, with the photos open, hold each piece to its pillar with the liner on, label the liner, and mark the ends with painter's tape. Peel one at a time, align to your marks, and press firmly along the full length, seating both edges with a fingertip. Compare all four at the end. A dry day within the Installation tab's temperature range is best; wait the listed cure time before washing. Each Soul cover is stainless, four in all.
Other Soul parts
GC10830 is a 1-piece gas door cover trim. PB10830 is a 2-piece porthole accent noted "Center Strip." MI10830 is a 4-piece body molding insert kit noted as a tapered width, but its width figures are garbled in the record, so check that listing or call. Seven more parts are cross-listed by number only.
If a piece doesn't match
Keep the liner on. Try the piece on another pillar, since similar pieces are easy to confuse, and check the photos again. If it still doesn't line up with any pillar, take a photo of it held in place and call us before peeling anything.
Care
Mild soap, water and a soft cloth keep the polish bright. Avoid steel wool and abrasive pads.

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.
