Product Description
PP28871: Six-Piece Stainless Pillar Trim, 2007-2009 Suzuki XL-7
PP28871 carries six polished pillar covers for the Suzuki XL-7, years 2007-2009, tagged 4-door, SUV. Price: $89.99. The steel is 26 gauge type 304, and the set is made in the USA.
With only three model years listed, double-check yours. The year is in your XL-7's records. Title and record agree, and no other model is named. If your XL-7 falls outside the window, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and give them PP28871 before ordering.
Six is the middle count of three. PP28870 offers four covers for less; PP28872 offers eight for more. The listings don't say which pillars any of them cover, or give widths, so judging between them is visual work. Set the three galleries side by side, look at the shapes, and look at your posts. If six covers is what puts bright steel where you want it, this is the listing; otherwise, take the one that matches better. Never more than one.
Appearance is all that changes. The covers sit on the posts dividing the side windows, and every working part around them, from door to glass to seal, carries on undisturbed. 304 stainless resists corrosion thanks to its alloy content rather than a plated layer, so it won't flake and needs only washing.
Fastening is 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, applied directly over the existing surface. Drill-free, with no trim removed. The Installation tab covers temperature range and cure time.
Six clean posts are the foundation of a good result. Inspect each in good light, feeling for wax and looking for chalky dullness, cracks or a curling edge. Fix those before going on; the tape can only grip what's beneath it. Wash with car shampoo, dry thoroughly, and give each post an isopropyl wipe on a lint-free cloth.
Open the parcel and match each cover to the gallery, phoning if one is creased or missing. Pair each of the six XL-7 covers with its photo before you start. Dry-fit and tape-outline all six with liners in place, then walk round the XL-7 to check that the covers correspond. Fit a pair at a time, pressing each cover down firmly along its full length and both edges.
If a cover won't lie flat, keep its liner and ring 877-752-3811. A dry, mild, shaded day suits the task; a helper and a step stool make it easier if the upper edges are hard to see from the ground. Let the cure time pass before rain or washing.
Before paying, hold the gallery up beside the SUV and find a post for each of the six shapes. If one leaves you puzzled, phone first.
Note the price, too. At $89.99, this six-piece set costs more than the four-piece and less than the eight-piece. If budget is part of the decision, compare all three galleries with that in mind; the cheapest listing whose photos match the posts you want is the sensible buy. When in doubt, a call before checkout is quick and saves a possible return later. Quote PP28871 and we'll open the 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.
