Product Description
Six-Piece Pillar Post Covers, 1996-2006 Hyundai Elantra 4-Door (PP96341)
PP96341 is the six-piece pillar kit QAA catalogs for the Hyundai Elantra 4-door sedan, and it spans an unusually wide fitment: every model year from 1996 to 2006. The covers are mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, mounted with 3M tape.
Who this kit is for
Elantra sedan owners who want more polished trim around the windows than the four-piece set provides. The smaller kit is PP96340. Since neither record includes a coverage note, the catalog does not say which posts get covers in each kit. The photos are the honest way to compare, and you can always call.

One kit across a long run
The fitment does not break the eleven years into smaller groups; one record covers them all. If you want to be certain about your car before ordering, call with the year and we will check the listing with you.
How the covers attach
The six Elantra covers fit over the existing pillar surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and no trim is removed. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Hyundai.
Polished through, not plated
The shine is the stainless steel itself. With no coating on top, there is nothing to wear through or flake, and the six pieces stay consistent.
Before the first cover goes on
Clean paint is the foundation. Wash, dry, and wipe the pillars with a wax-free cleaner. Look for clear that is lifting or paint that rubs off, and fix any of it before fitting.
Six steps for six covers
- Wait for a mild, dry day and park in shade.
- Each of the six Elantra covers corresponds to a photo; match them before peeling.
- Dry-fit each one with its liner on.
- Peel, align, and press firmly from end to end.
- Fit and check each Elantra cover before moving to the next.
- Give the tape a few days before washing.
See the Installation tab for the full instructions.
Maintenance
A hand wash with mild soap and a soft towel. No scouring pads.
Working with six pieces
Larger kits reward a little organization. Lay the six covers out on a towel in the order they will go on, touch them only by the edges, and keep the liners in place until each piece is aligned. Take care with the first cover, since it sets the line the others follow.
Why owners bother
A practical sedan that has been well kept deserves to look it. Bright pillars give an older Elantra a fresher side view, and since the covers go over the original pillars, nothing about the car is permanently changed.

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.
