Product Description
PP15615: Four-Piece Stainless Pillar Covers for the 4-Door Volkswagen Golf, 2012-2020
PP15615 is the pillar post set for the 4-door Volkswagen Golf hatchback, model years 2012-2020. It's four polished covers in 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. The fitment row reads Volkswagen Golf 2012-2020 with the tags 4-door and Hatchback; the title gives the model and years but not the door count, so that tag is the detail to check.
The door count decides it. QAA lists two Golf pillar sets for these years, and they're split by body. PP15610 is a two-piece set tagged 2-door Hatchback. This one is tagged 4-door Hatchback. Count the side doors on your Golf (leave out the hatch): four doors means this set is the one listed for you, two doors means PP15610. Neither listing has a note or names its pillars, so if you're unsure, call 877-752-3811 with PP15615, your door count and your year.
What's in the box. Four covers. The listing doesn't say which pillars they go on or mention a triangle piece; the photos show all four shapes. Look at them alongside your car before ordering.
A nine-year row. The catalog treats every 4-door Golf hatchback from 2012 through 2020 as the same fit for this set. Golf years on the row stretch from 2012 to 2020.
Mounting. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. No drilling and nothing removed. Golf pillar prep is set out on the Installation tab.
Why stainless. Polished 304 has no plated layer to lift, so a small scuff shows only more stainless, and 26 gauge keeps each cover close on its pillar.
Clean surfaces first. Wash the pillars with car soap, rinse and dry. Then wipe with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free rag and leave it to evaporate. If the paint is waxed or coated, remove that where the tape will go.
Four covers, one by one. Hold each cover on its post with the liner on, adjust until both edges look even, and mark the ends with painter's tape. Write the door on the liner. When all four are mapped, peel and press them one by one, firmly from one end to the other and along both edges. After every second Golf cover, step back and compare. The Installation tab lists temperature limits and cure time. The Golf covers are cut from stainless steel.
Reading the photos. Count the four outlines and compare each with the pillars on your Golf's doors. If one shape doesn't obviously match a post on your car, take a picture of that area and call us before ordering.
Setup. A dry day out of strong sun, a step stool for the upper ends, and a helper standing back if one is free. Gather car soap, towels, alcohol, a lint-free rag, painter's tape and a pen before you start.
On arrival. Check four covers against the gallery. If one won't lie flat, keep its liner on and try it on another pillar before calling Quality Automotive Trims. Ordinary car soap keeps the polish bright.

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.
