Product Description
1993-1997 Corolla 4-Door Stainless Pillar Post Kit, Six Pieces (PP97113)
Six polished covers for the pillar posts of a 1993-1997 Toyota Corolla 4-door sedan: that is PP97113. It is the larger of the two pillar kits QAA catalogs for this car, cut from 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and mounted with 3M tape.
When six makes sense
Choose the six-piece kit if you want as much bright trim around the side glass as QAA offers for this sedan. The four-piece alternative is PP97112. Neither record includes a coverage note, so the catalog does not say exactly which posts get covers or where the two further pieces sit. Look at the photos, and call if you want help deciding.

Match the rockers
TH95112 is the eight-piece rocker panel full kit QAA lists for this Corolla. According to its note, it spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door. Check its listing for the finish if you plan to pair it with the pillars along the whole side.
Nothing permanent
No trim is removed; the six covers rest on top of the original Corolla pillars. Per QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Toyota.
Solid stainless
The mirror finish is the polished steel itself. Without a plated coat, there is nothing to wear through, and every one of the six pieces keeps the same tone.
Prep for older paint
After washing and drying, wipe the pillars with a residue-free cleaner to take off old wax. If you find any paint that is chalky or lifting, deal with it first; tape cannot hold onto a weak surface.
Putting six covers on
- Choose a dry, mild day and a shady spot.
- Use the photos to match each cover to a Corolla pillar.
- Dry-fit every piece with its liner on.
- Remove one liner at a time, line the cover up, and press it along its length.
- Fit a cover and inspect it.
- Work through the rest the same way.
- The Corolla should not be washed for a few days.
Each step is spelled out on the Installation tab.
Placement advice
Get the first cover right and the rest follow. Use the door edge and glass corner as fixed reference points.
Maintenance
Wash by hand with mild soap and dry with a soft cloth. No scouring pads.
Why bother on an older Corolla
A car that keeps running deserves to look cared for. Bright pillars freshen the side view cheaply and leave the body unchanged underneath.
Handling
Six covers means six liners. Keep the pieces on a soft towel, hold them by the edges, and peel each liner only when that cover is lined up and ready to press down. Dust or fingerprints on the tape are the usual reason a corner fails to stay put.

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.
