Product Description
Toyota Avalon Sedan 2005-2012, Six Polished Pillar Covers, PP25126
For a 2005-2012 Toyota Avalon 4-door sedan, PP25126 provides six polished stainless pillar covers. The set is $67.99 and made in the USA. It's linked to a four-piece alternative, PP25125, for the same years.
Which Avalon?
The catalog carries Avalon pillar sets for several different spans of years, and they're not interchangeable listings. This one is for 2005-2012, eight model years, sedan only. The six-piece Avalon row also runs 2005-2012. If it falls outside that range, or you're unsure, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and quote PP25126.
Why six rather than four?
The listings don't explain. Neither names its pillars or gives a width or note. Lay the two galleries side by side and note how they differ. Then stand beside your Avalon and decide which areas you'd like dressed in polished steel. If the six shapes here match, choose this set. If the four-piece photos suit you better, choose that. Only one Avalon set is intended; call 877-752-3811 before combining, and we'll help you choose between them.
The material
26 gauge 304 stainless, polished. It needs no plating, so there's no coating to bubble, and it resists corrosion well. The covers are cosmetic and change only how the posts between the side windows look.
What you'll need
Mild car soap, a bucket, rubbing alcohol, a good supply of lint-free cloths, painter's tape and a pencil for marking each backing. That's the full list; no drills or special tools are involved.
The mounting
Each cover mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly onto the existing surface. There's no drilling and no trim to remove. The Installation tab lists the tape's temperature range and cure time; stay inside both.
The prep
Tape can only bond to a finish that's holding together. Inspect each post in good light. A powdery or chalky surface, hairline cracks, a peeling corner or old wax should all be sorted before fitting: repair, strip, wash and dry. Finish with rubbing alcohol, switching to fresh lint-free cloths until one stays clean.
The fitting
Work on a dry, still day in the shade. Check all six covers against the photos when they arrive and call if any are bent or missing. Lay out the Avalon's six covers by the gallery. Offer each up with the backing still on and trace around it with painter's tape. When all six are marked, fit one at a time: peel, set into the outline, and press hard along the full length and both edges. Step back every couple of covers to check the lines match. A helper makes the dry fit easier.
Should a 2005-2012 Avalon cover not lie flat, keep its backing on and call 877-752-3811. Once cured, car soap and a soft towel look after all six.
The time
Allow an unhurried session. Marking six positions takes the most time; each cover then presses on in moments. Before ordering, take the gallery out to the car once and confirm each shape has an obvious home.

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.
