Product Description
1999-2005 Volkswagen Passat Wagon Pillar Trim, Six Stainless Pieces (PP99677)
PP99677 is the pillar kit QAA catalogs for the Volkswagen Passat 4-door wagon from 1999 through 2005. It holds six covers in mirror-polished 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, mounted with 3M tape.
The wagon-only kit
The product title says only "Volkswagen Passat," but this record is the wagon entry. The sedan of the same years has two kits of its own, PP99675 (four pieces) and PP99676 (six pieces). Because this kit and PP99676 have the same piece count and nearly the same title, it is worth checking your body style twice before ordering.
One pillar kit for the wagon
No second wagon pillar kit is linked here, so six pieces is the option on file. The data has no coverage note, meaning it does not say which posts the six covers dress. Look carefully at the photos and compare the shapes with the pillars on your own wagon.
Years
1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005.
Material
26-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish. The finish belongs to the metal, so there is no coating to peel.
Mounting
Mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape; the covers go over the existing surface with no trim removal. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
About the gas door cover
The linked gas door cover, GC99675, is recorded for the sedan rather than the wagon. If you want one for a wagon, call to ask before ordering.
Paint prep
Wash and dry the pillars, then wipe off wax with a residue-free cleaner. Inspect the paint and repair any spot that is peeling or chalky; the tape holds only to a sound surface.
Fitting six covers on a wagon
- Choose a dry, mild day and a shaded place.
- Match each of the six Passat covers to its pillar using the photos.
- Dry-fit each with the liner still on.
- Peel, align with the door and window frame, and press firmly.
- Complete and inspect each Passat cover before moving to the next.
- Let the tape settle a few days before washing.
The Installation tab has more detail.
Care
Hand wash with mild soap and dry with a soft cloth. No scouring pads.
Why it looks right on a wagon
Bright pillar trim gives a practical wagon a dressier side view, and since the covers go over the original pillars, nothing is permanently changed.
Handling
Keep the six pieces face up on a clean towel and hold them by the edges, so skin oil and dust stay off the tape. Peel each liner only when that cover is lined up and ready.
Confirm before ordering
Check that your registration says wagon and that the year is between 1999 and 2005. If it says sedan, look at the sedan kits instead.

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.
