Product Description
Hyundai Elantra GT Hatchback 2013-2017 Pillar Posts, Four Stainless Pieces (PP13345)
PP13345 is the four-piece pillar post set for the Hyundai Elantra GT. The fitment row lists the Hyundai Elantra, 2013-2017, tagged 4-door and "GT Hatchback", and the pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA.
GT Hatchback, not just Elantra. The title says Hyundai Elantra, but the row's body tag narrows it to the GT Hatchback. If your Elantra isn't the GT Hatchback, this row doesn't list it, so check your records or badge, or call before ordering.
Three pillar sizes, and a package. For the same GT Hatchback the sheet lists PP13346 (six pieces) and PP13347 (eight pieces, noted "Includes Rear Triangle piece"). This four-piece set has no notes and doesn't mention a triangle piece. There's also WP13345, an 18-piece Window Trim Package whose note says it includes 10 piece Upper Trim and 8 piece Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills. Plan on one set per Elantra; call 877-752-3811 before combining listings. WP13346 and WQ13345 appear by number only. None of the pillar listings names its pillars, so compare photos and buy one set.
Other GT parts listed. GC13345, a 1-piece gas door cover trim. TH13345, a 4-piece lower rocker kit on the doors only, from the bottom of the door up to the listed 1.5. TH13346, a 2-piece rocker trim with a bend contour that installs below the door, also listed at 1.5. RD13345, a 1-piece rear deck accent, noted 2" width by 43" length; it is listed for this hatchback, so check its photos.
Fit check. Elantra GT Hatchback, 4-door, model year 2013-2017. Questions: Quality Automotive Trims, 877-752-3811, quoting PP13345.
Mounting. On the Elantra GT hatchback, all four covers mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing post surface; nothing is drilled or removed.
Prep. Mild soap, rinse, towel dry; then degrease with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it evaporate. Remove wax or coating where tape will sit.
Placement. Hold each cover to its pillar with the backing on and sight along the edges. If one won't follow the pillar, try another. Mark the ends with painter's tape and write the location on the backing. Peel, set between the marks and press firmly end to end and along both edges. Compare sides from a few paces back. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and cure time.
If stuck. Keep the backing on, photograph the cover in place and call us.
Before you start. Choose shade or a garage for the Elantra GT, and lay out soap, a bucket, towels, rubbing alcohol, lint-free cloth, painter's tape, a marker and the photos.
Care. Mild soap and a soft cloth.
The Fitment and Specs tabs list the data.
Order of work. Fit the first two, then use them as your template for the rest. A helper a few paces back can confirm each cover looks level before its backing comes off, and counting all four against the photos when the box arrives saves surprises. A step stool helps with the upper ends.

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.
