Product Description
Mercedes E Class Sedan 2010-2016: 4-Piece Stainless Pillar Post Trim (PP10060)
PP10060 is the four-piece pillar post trim set for the 2010-2016 Mercedes E Class 4-door sedan. It's one of two pillar sets on this sheet for the same car: PP10061 is the six-piece version, with identical fitment tags. If you're deciding between them, the piece count is the difference the catalog shows, and the product photos are where you'll see which pillars each set covers. The listing doesn't spell that out in words.
Choosing between four and six
Here's a practical way to decide. Open the photos for both sets. See which pillar surfaces the four-piece set takes in, and what the six-piece set covers beyond that. Then look at your car and decide which pillars you want dressed in stainless. If you only want the pillars shown in the four-piece photos, PP10060 is the simpler job with fewer pieces to align. If you want the additional pieces too, look at PP10061. Still unsure? Call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with both numbers and we'll walk through it.
Fitment
Mercedes E Class, 2010 through 2016, 4-door, sedan. The title matches the row. E Class cars of 2010 through 2016 take the four covers. Only the 4-door sedan is listed in the row.
Specifications
Four pieces of 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish, made in the USA. Mounting is 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, installed directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling. Something about the E Class set unclear? Ring 877-752-3811.
Preparing the pillars
Wash the pillars with soapy water and dry them. Wipe with rubbing alcohol, especially along the edges where grime gathers, and let it evaporate. Remove any wax or sealant from the area where the tape will touch.
Fitting four pieces
Lay the four pieces out and match each one to its pillar using the photos. Hold each up with its liner on to check the fit, and write its position on the liner. Then, one at a time, peel the liner, align the piece with the pillar's edges, and press firmly from one end to the other. Seat the edges with your fingertips. When all four are on, compare them from a few steps away. Work on a dry day inside the temperature range in the Installation tab, and wait the cure time before washing.
Weather and light
Pillar trim sits close to the glass, so reflections can fool your eye during alignment. Work in even shade rather than bright sun, and on a dry day in the temperature range given in the Installation tab. Overcast daylight or a well-lit garage shows edge gaps most clearly, so you can judge each margin before you commit to pressing a piece down.
Upkeep
Mild soap, water and a soft cloth keep the stainless bright. Avoid abrasive pads and steel wool, and wipe away glass-cleaner overspray when you clean the windows.

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.
