Product Description
1993-1997 Mazda 626 4-Door Pillar Post Covers, Six-Piece Stainless Kit (PP96751)
PP96751 is the six-piece pillar kit QAA lists for the Mazda 626 4-door sedan from 1993 to 1997. The covers are mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and each one mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
Six or four: how to decide
The alternative is PP96750, a four-piece kit for the same car. A larger piece count means more of the window surround is dressed in bright trim, but the catalog has no coverage note for either kit and does not say where the additional two pieces go. Look at both sets of photos. If you are still unsure, call and we will help you compare.

Complete the side view
For the lower body, QAA lists TH93755, a six-piece upper rocker panel kit for this 626. Per its note, it covers between the wheel wells only and spans from the bottom of the molding down to the specified width.
Leaves the car as it was
The covers go over the existing pillars. Nothing is cut or removed. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
The finish lasts because it is the metal
Plated parts depend on a thin coat. These are solid stainless polished to a mirror, so the shine runs through the piece and all six stay alike.
Paint on a car this age
Thirty years of sun and washing can leave pillars dull or fragile. Wash, dry, and wipe them with a wax-free cleaner. If you see peeling clear or powdery paint, repair it before installing, because the tape grips only what is solid.
Install sequence
- Wait for a dry, temperate day before starting on the Mazda.
- Lay out the six covers and match them to the photos.
- Dry-fit each one, liner on.
- Strip each liner and bear down on the cover from one end to the other.
- Review each 626 cover once it is on.
- Wait a few days before the 626 is washed.
The Installation tab has the detailed version.
Upkeep
Hand wash with mild soap and dry with a soft cloth. Keep abrasives away.
First-piece advice
Spend the most time on the first 626 cover. Once it is placed well, the rest line up against it easily.
Handling six pieces
Lay the covers on a clean towel and hold them by the edges. Peel each liner only when that piece is lined up and ready, so dust and fingerprints stay off the adhesive.
What pillar posts are
Pillar posts are the vertical parts of the body framing the side windows. Polished covers outline them in bright steel while the original pillars stay untouched underneath, so the change is entirely cosmetic.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 6 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.
