Product Description
Honda Pilot 2016-2022 Four-Piece Pillar Trim with Top Crease (PP16260)
PP16260 is the four-piece pillar post set for the 2016-2022 Honda Pilot 4-door SUV, and it is the only Pilot pillar listing with the note "Includes top crease." That note is the first thing to understand before you choose between the four Pilot sets.
About the top crease note
The catalog says this set includes a top crease, but it doesn't explain what that is: whether it's a shaped edge on the covers, a separate piece, or a contour that matches a line on the pillar. We've flagged the wording for review. The product photos are the clearest guide, so look closely at the upper ends of the covers in the gallery. If the note matters to your decision, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with PP16260 and ask what it refers to.
How it compares
Four pillar sets are listed for this Pilot:
- PP16260, 4 pieces, with the top crease note.
- PP16261, 6 pieces, no notes.
- PP16262, 8 pieces, no notes.
- PP16263, 10 pieces, noted "Includes Front Pillar behind the mirror."
The smaller sets don't mention the front pillar behind the mirror, and the larger sets don't mention a top crease. Beyond those two notes, the listings don't name which pillars each set covers. Pick one Pilot listing, and look through the galleries before ordering another.
Material and mounting
Each cover is polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. They mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface, so you won't drill or remove any trim.
Fitment
One row: Honda Pilot, 2016-2022, 4-door, SUV. That's seven model years and a single body style. Your Pilot should be a 2016 through 2022. For anything outside that row, call 877-752-3811 before ordering, and keep the SKU handy so the answer is quick and you order the right set.
More Pilot trim
The same sheet shows TH16260, a four-piece lower rocker panel kit at 1.25 that spans from the bottom of the door up to that width; GC16260, a one-piece gas door cover trim; LP16260, a license plate bezel with access for the rear backup camera; and RD16260, a one-piece rear deck accent at 0.75. That last one is a rear deck accent for this SUV, so check its photos before ordering. WQ16260, LB16260 and TP16260 are linked by number only.
Prep and fitting
Wash and dry the pillar areas, then wipe each with isopropyl alcohol and let it evaporate. Remove any wax or coating where tape will sit. Dry-fit every cover with its liner on, paying particular attention to how the upper ends line up, and mark the spots with painter's tape. Take one Pilot cover at a time: peel, then press it firmly along its length and both edges. Temperature range and cure time are on the Installation tab. The Pilot covers are polished stainless, four in the set.
If a cover won't seat at the top or doesn't seem to belong anywhere, keep its liner on and call 877-752-3811.

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.
