Product Description
Kia Soul 2014-2019 Stainless Pillar Post Trim, Four Pieces (PP14830)
PP14830 puts four polished stainless covers on the pillars of a 2014-2019 Kia Soul. The catalog lists it on one row, Kia Soul 2014-2019, tagged 4-door and Hatchback, and the title says the same. It's 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, held on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface.
Three Soul pillar sets appear on this sheet, and on paper they differ only in how many pieces come in the box:
- PP14830, four pieces (this listing)
- PP14831, six pieces
- PP14832, eight pieces
Not one of them has a note. Not one says which pillars it covers, and none mentions a triangle piece. That's not a lot to go on, so here's a method that works. Open the three galleries in separate tabs. For each, count the distinct shapes. Then walk around your Soul and look at its window pillars. Whichever set shows covers for the posts you want is the one to buy. One Soul set is the idea; its photos show what it covers, and 877-752-3811 can confirm. Polished stainless steel is used for all four Soul covers.
If you're starting out, four covers is a quick install and an easy way to see how polished stainless looks on your Soul. If the photos show that a larger set covers posts you care about, go with that instead.
No drill is involved. The tape bonds each cover on top of the surface that's already there, and nothing on the doors comes off. This listing doesn't state a hold period, so neither do we.
The steel itself is the finish. Polished 304 stainless has no plating or film to lift, and a light scratch shows more stainless underneath. The 26 gauge sheet sits slim against the pillar.
To prepare, wash the pillars with a gentle car shampoo, rinse until the water runs clean, and dry. A wipe with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth takes off any film that's left; let it evaporate. If there's wax or a ceramic coating on those pillars, remove it where the tape will sit.
For fitting, test before you stick. Rest each cover on its pillar with the liner still on and make sure the edges line up evenly along the post. Tape the ends with a little painter's tape so you can find the spot again, and write the door on the liner. Then peel, place and press one cover at a time, working firmly along its length and both edges. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Shade, dry weather, a cool panel and a step stool for the upper ends are all you need for a good session.
Before ordering, make sure it's a Soul built 2014 to 2019. When the box arrives, match four covers to the photos. If one won't sit flat, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with PP14830. Regular car soap keeps it bright; skip abrasive pads, which can haze a polished face.

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.
