Product Description
Six Polished Pillar Covers for the Lexus GX470, 2003-2009 (PP24123)
Got a GX470 from 2003-2009 and want bright posts between its windows? PP24123 is a six-piece set of polished stainless pillar covers listed for that SUV, priced at $84.49 and made in the USA. There's one linked alternative, PP24124, which has four covers instead of six.
That's really the main decision you'll make, so let's start there. Neither GX470 pillar listing tells you which pillars its covers are cut for. Neither gives a width, and neither has a note. What you do get is a photo gallery for each. Open them together and look for the shapes that appear in this set but not in the four-piece one. Picture those on your GX470. If you'd like them in stainless, six is your count. If you'd rather keep the job shorter, go with four. Just don't buy both; they're alternatives.
Fitment is simple: Lexus GX470, 2003-2009, 4-door, SUV, across seven model years. If your records show a year inside that range, you're covered by the listing. If it doesn't, or something else about your car doesn't match, ring Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and mention PP24123.
The covers themselves are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel with a polished finish. Because they aren't plated, there's no shiny layer that can wear through or peel off, and the steel resists corrosion. A wash now and then keeps them bright. Each of the six covers is polished stainless, listed for the GX470, and the listing gives no other finish.
They go on with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, directly over the existing surface. You won't drill anything, and nothing on the GX470 has to come off. Have a look at the Installation tab before starting; it gives the tape's temperature range and cure time.
One thing worth doing first is checking the posts themselves. The tape sticks to whatever finish is there now, so if it's gone dull and chalky, crazed, or started lifting at an edge, get that repaired before fitting. Run a fingertip along each post. Clean finger, good sign. Dusty finger, more work to do.
When you're ready, pick a dry, calm day and park in the shade. Unpack the six covers and match each one to the photos; call if anything's bent or missing. Wash and dry the posts, then wipe them with isopropyl alcohol until a fresh lint-free cloth stays clean. The GX470 gallery is the guide for each cover. Try each one in place with the liner still on and box it in with painter's tape. Then peel, set and press each firmly along its length and both edges. A helper and a step stool both make life easier.
If a cover just won't sit flat, leave its liner on and phone 877-752-3811 rather than pushing it. Once the tape has cured, a wash with car soap and a soft towel is all the care they need.
Plan an unhurried session. Marking takes the most time; pressing the covers on is quick. Quote PP24123 and we'll open its row straight away.

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.
