Product Description
Honda Ridgeline 2017-2026 Four-Piece Pillar Trim, Top Crease Included (PP17240)
PP17240 is the four-piece pillar post set for the Honda Ridgeline 4-door pickup, listed for model years 2017 through 2026. Of the three Ridgeline pillar sets, it's the only one with a note: "Includes top crease."
The top crease note
The listing doesn't explain what the top crease is, whether it's a separate piece or a shape on one of the covers, so we've flagged the wording for review rather than guess. The photos are your best guide; look closely at the upper ends of the covers. The six-piece PP17241 and the eight-piece PP17242 don't mention a top crease. If that detail matters to you, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with PP17240 and ask.
Ten model years
The row reads Honda Ridgeline, 2017-2026, tagged 4-door and Pickup Truck. That's a long span on a single row. Check the Ridgeline's year, and call if your truck falls outside the row.
Four, six or eight
Apart from the top crease note here, none of the three listings names the pillars it covers or gives a width. Compare the galleries side by side and look for outlines that turn up in one and not the others. If a larger Ridgeline set also appeals, compare the photos or ring 877-752-3811. This one is the lightest job and is listed at $67.99.
Material and mounting
Four covers in polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. They bond with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface, so there's no drilling and no trim removal.
Other Ridgeline trim
- TH17240: a twelve-piece upper rocker panel kit, tapered 2" - 2.625", that spans from the bottom of the molding crease down to that width.
- RT17240: a one-piece tailgate accent trim, 1" width X 59" length.
- RW17240: a two-piece set of sliding rear window trim accents.
When it arrives
Count four covers and compare each with the photos, looking for the top crease detail as you go. Keep them flat with liners on until you're ready to start, and call before installing if anything is bent or missing.
Preparing the cab
Wash the Ridgeline's pillar areas with car shampoo, rinse, and dry completely. Go over each with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it flash off, then strip wax, sealant or ceramic coating where tape will go. Pick a dry, shaded day.
Fitting, top ends first
Hold the four covers up to the photos one by one. With liners on, hold each to its pillar and check the upper end first, since that's where the top crease note points, then confirm the rest of the edges follow the shape. Mark the position with painter's tape. Peel one liner at a time, set the cover on your marks and press firmly along its length and both edges. Carry on with the following Ridgeline cover. A step stool helps you see the upper ends square on. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
If a cover won't seat at the top, 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.
