Product Description
Honda Pilot 2009-2015 Pillar Post Trim, Six Stainless Covers (PP29261)
- Confirm the vehicle. PP29261 is listed for the Honda Pilot, 2009-2015, tagged 4-door, SUV. Earlier Pilot pillar sets exist in the catalog for different years; they aren't linked here, so check your records against this span.
- Know what's in the box. The package holds six covers for the Pilot's window posts, polished from 26 gauge 304 stainless and made in the USA. The price is $84.49.
- Compare with the four-cover set. PP29260 is the linked alternative for the same years. Neither listing names its pillars or gives widths, so open both galleries and follow the outlines. If these six shapes match where you want polished steel on your Pilot, order this page; if the four suit your plan, order PP29260.
- Ignore the other links for this order. GC29260 (gas door cover trim), LP29260 (license plate bezel), MI29260 (body molding insert kit), WQ29260 (wheel well accent trim) and WS29260 (window sill trim set) are separate listings.
- Ask if unsure. If the Pilot's posts and these photos don't seem to agree, phone Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 with PP29261 to hand.
- Expect a cosmetic change only. Each slim cover brightens a post between the side windows. The Pilot's doors, glass and seals are left alone, and grade 304 resists corrosion with no plated coat.
- Read the Installation tab. It gives the temperature range and cure time. Each cover's 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape bonds to the SUV's current post finish, with no drilling and no trim removal.
- Inspect all six posts. Run a fingertip along each and look for a chalky film, fine cracking, a corner that's lifting or a layer of wax. Fix anything you find, because the tape grips that surface and nothing deeper.
- Clean them. Wash, rinse and let dry, then wipe each post with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, switching cloths until one comes away clean. A step stool helps with the upper ends.
- Gather the kit. Car soap, a bucket, alcohol, a good supply of cloths, painter's tape, a pencil, a towel and a helper.
- Pick the day. Mild, dry and still, with the Honda parked in shade and the posts cool to the touch.
- Unpack and sort. Check the six covers against the gallery and call about any that are bent or missing. Arrange the six on the towel as the photos show.
- Mark positions. With the backing on, hold each cover to its post, nudge it until the reveal is even, and trace it in painter's tape. Trace all six before peeling one.
- Fit in order. Peel, set the cover in its tracing, press firmly along its length and down both edges, then fit the next. Have your helper look along the side after every second cover.
- Handle a stubborn one. Don't press down a Pilot cover that rocks on its post. Put it aside with the backing still attached and talk it through with us on 877-752-3811.
- Look after them. Keep the SUV out of the wash until the cure time has run, then clean the six covers with car soap whenever the paint gets washed, finishing 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.
