Product Description
Toyota Rav4 2013-2018 Pillar Post Trim, 4-Piece Polished Stainless (PP13180)
PP13180 is the four-piece pillar post set for the Toyota Rav4, model years 2013 to 2018, tagged 4-door SUV. Four covers in polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. The title agrees with the row.
Four sizes on one sheet
This Rav4 has four pillar sets listed: this one with four pieces, PP13181 with six, PP13182 with eight and PP13183 with ten. None of them carries a note or names its pillars, so the count is all the data gives. The photos are what show the shapes. A practical approach is to start with the ten-piece photos to see the fullest version, then work down until you find the smallest set that still covers everything you want. If that's four, this is your set, and you'll have the fewest covers to sort. Buy one set, since the catalog doesn't say whether they overlap.
Handle trim on the same sheet
If you're planning the sides of the Rav4 together, two handle options appear for the same years: DH13180, a 4-piece door handle accent trim, and DH13181, an 8-piece door handle cover kit. The catalog lists them as different part types. Their listings on this sheet don't carry notes, so check their own pages for details before choosing.
Also listed: AT13180, a 4-piece body side molding accent trim at a width of 1, and GC13180, a 1-piece gas door cover trim. RW13180, TH13180, TH13181, WP13180 and WP13181 appear by number only. We can't describe those from this sheet, so ask about any of them by number.

Attachment
On the 2013-2018 RAV4, each of the four covers goes onto the existing pillar surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, with no drilling and nothing removed.
Install
Wash the pillars with a mild car soap, rinse and dry. Wipe with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it flash off. Remove wax or coating where tape will sit.
Offer each cover to its pillar with the backing on and compare with the photos. Its edges should follow the pillar; if not, try a different one. Mark both ends with painter's tape and note the spot on the backing. Peel, place, and press firmly from end to end, then along both edges. Use a step stool for the upper ends. Compare sides from a few steps back. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and cure time.
Light, tools, upkeep
Shade or a garage beats full sun. Bucket, soap, towels, rubbing alcohol, a lint-free cloth, painter's tape, a marker and the photos. Afterwards, mild soap and a soft cloth.
Fitment and Specs hold the data for these four pieces.
If a cover won't sit
Keep the backing on. Recheck the photos and the other pillars, then photograph the cover held in place and call us. A question answered before the tape goes down saves a piece, and a helper standing back can tell you whether each cover sits level.

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.
