Product Description
Six-Cover Pillar Post Trim for the Chevrolet Cavalier Sedan 1995-2005 (PP36131)
Six polished stainless pillar covers for the four-door Chevrolet Cavalier, model years 1995-2005: that's PP36131, at $67.99. Each is 26 gauge 304 stainless, polished and made in the USA, and the listing's single row reads 4-door, Sedan.
Choosing between the two Cavalier sets. PP36130 is the linked four-cover set, with identical years and body. The records give no notes, post names or widths for either, so you'll be choosing from the photos. This gallery shows six shapes. Put it beside the four-cover gallery, then look along your sedan and settle which posts you want covered. Six matching your plan means this page; four means PP36130. Do the comparison beside the car rather than from memory, holding each photo up to the post you think it belongs on. If one of the six has no obvious post, that's a sign to look again at the four-cover set or to call us.
Year and body. Eleven years share one row, with no split, so there's nothing year-specific to check beyond being inside that range. The body is the sedan; if your records show anything else, call before ordering. Quality Automotive Trims is on 877-752-3811; mention PP36131.
What fitting changes. Only the look of the posts. The six covers sit over them beside the windows, and the doors, glass and weatherstrip keep working as they do today. The 304 grade resists corrosion through its composition, not through a plated finish.
How they're held. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape attaches every cover to the post's current paint or trim. The car isn't drilled and keeps all of its trim. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Getting the posts ready. With six to fit, set aside time for preparation. Remove any wax or polish, and repair chalky, crazed or lifting finish where you find it, since the tape bonds only to what's there. Wash with car soap, rinse, let the posts dry right through, and wipe each with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, swapping cloths until one comes away unmarked.
Kit. Car soap, a bucket, alcohol, plenty of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. A friend to judge the six Cavalier covers helps, since small differences in angle show more from the front and rear than from beside the car, and it's easier to adjust before peeling.
Fitting. Shade, a dry day, little wind. Count the six against the photos and call us about any bend or shortage. Sort them by position. For each, keep the liner on, hold it to the post, nudge it until the margin is equal, and box it in with painter's tape. Peel, drop it into the box, and press firmly along its whole length and both edges. Do the next cover before moving on.
If something's off. A cover that won't seat should keep its liner while you phone 877-752-3811. After the cure, the six are washed with car soap and dried with a soft towel.

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.
