Product Description
Ford Explorer 2020-2026 Pillar Post Trim With Keyless Entry Touch Pad, 4-Piece (PP60330)
PP60330 is a four-piece polished stainless steel pillar post kit for the 4-door Ford Explorer, listed for model years 2020 through 2026. QAA notes that it includes the keyless entry touch pad, which makes it the kit to look at if your Explorer has the exterior keypad.
Keypad or no keypad
QAA catalogs two separate sets of Explorer pillar kits. This one, and the six-piece PP60331, carry the note "includes keyless entry touch pad." QAA also lists Explorer kits described as being for vehicles without keyless entry. Check whether your Explorer has the exterior touch pad before ordering, because that is the main thing that determines which kit you need. The listing photos show how the touch pad area is handled.
Four pieces or six
Within the keypad kits, the choice is four pieces (this kit) or six (PP60331). The catalog does not say which pillars each piece covers or what the two further pieces cover. The photos are the best way to compare. Four is the lighter accent and the quicker install.
On the Explorer
Pillars are the upright sections that frame the side windows. On the Explorer they are clearly visible from the side. Polished covers outline the windows and give the SUV a crisper, more upscale side view, without any permanent modification.
Material
QAA makes the four covers in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror shine. It is solid metal, so the brightness cannot peel away.
Installation
The four Explorer pillar pieces, keyless entry touch pad included, adhere over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and nothing is taken apart. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the SUV.
Wash and dry the pillars and remove any wax. Dry-fit each piece, paying close attention to the touch pad area so it lines up. Then peel the liner and press firmly along the full length. Test the keypad once the piece is on. The Installation tab gives the full steps.
More Explorer trim
QAA catalogs a wide range of trim for this Explorer: two rear window trim sets (one is a small triangle piece), a four-piece door handle accent set, a six-piece upper rocker panel kit, a four-piece window sill set for the face of the sills, a rear deck accent, a sixteen-piece EXPLORER lower door letter insert set, and a gas door cover.
Fitment
Listed for the Ford Explorer 4-door SUV, 2020 through 2026. The Fitment tab shows the entry exactly as QAA records it.

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.
