Product Description
Subaru Outback 2010-2014 Pillar Post Trim, 4-Piece Stainless Set (PP10480)
PP10480 is a four-piece set of polished stainless pillar post trim for the 2010-2014 Subaru Outback. The fitment row tags it 4-door, Crossover SUV, and the title agrees on the years. On this sheet it's the smallest of three pillar sets for the Outback: PP10481 has six pieces and PP10482 has eight, both with the same tags.
Picking a size
None of the three listings has a note saying which pillars it covers, so the product photos are the guide. One way to choose is to open all three sets' photos in turn and note what each larger set takes in. If the four pillars shown here are the ones you want, this is the simplest and quickest job of the three. If you'd like help comparing, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention PP10480.
The specifications
Four pieces, 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished, made in the USA. Mounting is 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, installed directly over the existing surface; there's no drilling and nothing to take apart. Outback prep is set out on the Installation tab. There's no width listed.
Check your Outback
The Outback should be a 2010 through 2014. If you're outside that range, call before ordering.
Clean pillars, strong bond
Tape needs bare, clean surface to grip. Wash each pillar with soapy water and dry it. Wipe it down with rubbing alcohol on a clean cloth and let it evaporate. Any wax, sealant or coating where the tape will sit should come off first. On a vehicle from these years, look closely for chips or lifting finish, and repair those before you continue.
Dry fit, then install
Hold each piece against its pillar with the liner on and compare it with the photos. When the shape and length match the pillar's edges, write the position on the liner. Install one piece at a time: peel, align, press firmly from end to end, and run a fingertip along each edge. When all four are on, step back and judge them as a set. Work on a dry day inside the Installation tab's temperature range, out of harsh direct sun if possible, and wait the cure time listed there before washing.
Why the dry fit matters
Foam tape grabs quickly once pressed. The dry fit is your chance to make every decision, from which pillar to which way up, while nothing is stuck. A few more minutes here is what gives a clean, even result, so dry each pillar fully before the backing comes off.
Already have other trim?
If your Outback already wears stainless or chrome pieces elsewhere, hold a pillar piece next to them in daylight before installing to see how the finishes sit together. This sheet lists only the three pillar sets, so for other parts for this vehicle, ask when you call.
Care
Mild soap, water and a soft cloth keep polished stainless bright. Keep steel wool and abrasive pads away, and wipe off glass cleaner overspray.

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.
