Product Description
Ford Explorer 2011-2019 Four-Piece Pillar Post Trim, No Keyless Touch Pad (PP51332)
Here's the four-cover Explorer pillar set noted "Does not include keyless touch pad." PP51332 costs $67.99, the covers are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA, and the fitment row reads Ford Explorer 2011-2019, tagged 4-door, SUV.
Why the note matters: the record splits the Explorer pillar sets along exactly that line. PP51330 (four covers) and PP51331 (six) are noted "Includes keyless entry touch pad," while this set and PP51333 (six covers) say they don't include it. All four share the same row and tags, and the record doesn't describe how the covers differ beyond those words. We're not going to fill that in with a guess. Check whether your Explorer has a keyless entry touch pad, then compare this gallery with the PP51330 gallery. If the photos don't settle it, a quick call will.
The record links one more item for this Explorer: TH51330, a six-piece upper rocker panel kit, sold on its own listing and not included here. None of the pillar sets names its posts or lists widths, so the photos have to do that job.
Explorers dated 2011 to 2019 are listed for four covers. The row runs 2011 through 2019, and an Explorer from another year isn't covered by it. For help choosing, phone Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP51332, the year and a note of whether there's a touch pad on your Explorer.
These four are trim, nothing more. Doors, side glass and seals all carry on as before. The 304 alloy keeps corrosion away through its own chemistry, so there's no plated surface involved.
The covers mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape laid straight over the paint or trim on each post. No drill, no removal of any Ford trim. The Installation tab tells you the temperatures to work in and the cure time.
Spend proper time on the four posts. Clear away wax and polish film. Wherever the paint is chalking, cracking or loose, repair it before anything else, since that coat is what the tape grips. Wash with soapy water, rinse and dry, then give each post a wipe with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloth, folding to clean faces until it comes away spotless. Feel along for dents, and have painter's tape and a pencil ready.
First, choose a shaded, dry and windless day, unpack the four and check them against the photos, telling us immediately about any damage. Second, decide each cover's post and mark it with a numbered tab of tape. Third, liner on, offer up one cover, move it until the margin is even and trace round it. Fourth, peel the liner, set the cover in the tracing and press firmly along its whole length and both edges. Check it from a step back before the next.
If any cover refuses to sit down, leave the liner in place and call 877-752-3811. After the cure, car soap, water and a soft towel are all they need.

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.
