Product Description
Six-Cover Pillar Post Trim for the Buick LeSabre Sedan 2000-2005 (PP40566)
PP40566 brings six polished stainless pillar covers to the Buick LeSabre sedan, listed for 2000-2005. The set is $67.99. The steel is 26 gauge 304, made in the USA, and the fitment row reads 4-door, Sedan.
Choosing a LeSabre set. PP40565 is the linked four-cover alternative for the same years. Neither listing has a note or names its posts, and neither gives widths. The difference shows only in the photographs, so count the six shapes in this gallery and the four in the other, then take both out to your LeSabre. Match each shape to a post, side by side. If all six land on posts you'd like brightened, order this set. If the four-cover gallery matches your plan instead, PP40565 is the listing to choose. Doing the comparison beside the car, with each photo held up to the post it seems to fit, is quicker and more reliable than judging from memory.
Not included. WZ40565, also linked, is a wheel well fender trim molding noted "Short Style." It's a separate part with its own page and fitment details.
Your year. One row covers 2000 through 2005, with nothing singled out, so the same check works for every year in range. Check it's the four-door sedan, and call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP40566 if anything in the photos is unclear. LeSabre fit questions are answered on that number too.
What changes. Only how the posts look. The six covers lie over them by the side glass, while the Buick's doors, windows and weatherstrip keep working as they are. Grade 304 resists corrosion through its own chemistry.
Attachment. Each cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, bonding to the post's current paint or trim. No drilling, and no trim taken off. The Installation tab covers the temperature range and cure time.
Preparing six posts. Clean off any wax or polish, and repair spots that are chalky, crazed or flaking. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry right through, and wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, using a fresh one until it comes away clean. Look along each post for dents or past repairs as you go.
Kit. Car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a stack of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil. A friend at the front and rear of the sedan makes the six covers easier to judge.
Fitting. Shade, a dry day and little wind. Count the six against the photos and phone us about anything bent or short. Group them by position, photos in hand. With its liner on, hold each cover to its post, adjust until the reveal is even, and frame it in painter's tape. Lift the liner, settle the cover in the frame, and press firmly along its length and both edges. Continue with the following LeSabre cover.
A cover that won't sit flat. Keep its liner on and call 877-752-3811. Once cured, 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.
