Product Description
Six-Cover Stainless Pillar Post Trim, Saturn Vue 2003-2007 (PP43441)
For the 2003-2007 Saturn Vue, PP43441 provides six polished stainless pillar post covers at $67.99. The steel is 26 gauge 304, and the covers are made in the USA. The listing has a single fitment row, Saturn Vue 2003-2007, tagged 4-door, SUV.
Fit check. Look for a Vue from those five years with the four-door SUV body. Outside that, this listing doesn't apply; ring us before you buy if anything looks different.
Where it sits in the range. PP43441 is the middle option among the linked Vue pillar sets: PP43440 has four covers, PP43442 has ten, and PP43443 is another linked pillar listing. Without notes, post names or widths on any of them, the galleries are the way to compare. Number the six shapes here and find each one's post on your Saturn, then look at the other galleries the same way.
Other Vue trims. These are linked and sold separately: GC43440, LP43440, RD43440, SGR43440, ST43440, TH43441, TH43442 and WQ43440.
Ask us. If the galleries leave you torn between four, six and ten covers, ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811. Quote PP43441 and your Vue's model year, and we'll go through the shapes with you until it's clear which set suits the posts you want in stainless.
What they do. They're cosmetic covers for the posts next to the side windows. Doors, glass and weatherstrip aren't affected. Type 304 stainless resists corrosion through its alloy, not plating.
How they attach. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape bonds each cover over the post's existing paint or trim. You won't drill the Vue or lift any trim. Read the Installation tab for the temperature range and cure time.
Preparation. With six posts, give each the same care. Remove wax and polish, and repair chalking, crazing or peeling paint, since the tape holds to that layer. Wash with car soap, rinse, let everything dry, and wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths until a fresh face shows nothing. Feel for dents while you clean, since a polished cover makes any dip in the post easier to see.
Kit: a bucket with car soap, a bottle of rubbing alcohol, a thick stack of lint-free cloths, a roll of painter's tape and a pencil for writing post names on the tape. If someone can stand off to the side of the Saturn while you hold each cover, their eye on the lines is a real help.
Fitting. Shade and dry, still weather. Lay out the six beside the gallery and contact us about any damage or shortage. Label each with painter's tape for the post its photo shows. Liner on, hold a cover to that post, ease it until the gap is even and tape round it. Peel, place it in the outline and press firmly along its length and both edges. Check it from a step back before the next.
A cover that won't settle. Keep its liner on and call 877-752-3811 rather than pressing harder. Once cured, the six are washed with car soap and water 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.
