Product Description
PP10481: Subaru Outback 2010-2014 Stainless Pillar Post Set, 6 Pieces
In one sentence: six polished stainless pillar post pieces for the 2010-2014 Subaru Outback 4-door Crossover SUV, mounted with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface.
Where it fits among the options. The sheet lists three pillar sets for this Outback: PP10480 with four pieces, PP10481 with six, and PP10482 with eight. They share the same fitment tags. None names its pillars in writing, so the photos are where you see the difference. Six pieces is the middle ground: more coverage than the four-piece set shows, fewer parts than the eight. Line up the photos of all three and choose by eye; if you'd like a second opinion, Quality Automotive Trims takes calls at 877-752-3811. Mention PP10481.
Fitment. Subaru Outback, 2010 through 2014, 4-door, Crossover SUV, with the title in agreement. Check the Outback is from 2010 to 2014. For the Outback, call 877-752-3811 and quote PP10481.
Material. The Outback's six covers are 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished and made in the USA; the photos show their shapes.
Drilling? None. The tape goes directly over the existing surface and nothing is removed. Outback cleaning steps are on the Installation tab.
Your materials list. A bucket of soapy water, microfiber towels, rubbing alcohol, painter's tape, a marker and the product photos. That's it.
Preparation. Wash and dry the pillars, then wipe them with rubbing alcohol and let it evaporate. Clear any wax, sealant or coating from the contact area. Repair any chipped or peeling finish, because tape bonds only as well as the surface under it.
Labeling. Use the photos to order the six pieces from front to back. Hold each up to its pillar, liner on, and confirm the shape. Write a short code on each liner. If one won't sit correctly, compare it with the photos again before anything else. Polished stainless is the finish on every Outback cover in this six-piece set.
Installation. Finish three before starting the rest. Peel a liner, set the piece against the pillar's edges, and press firmly from end to end. Seat both edges with a fingertip. Check them from a few steps back, then do the rest and compare. Choose a dry day inside the Installation tab's temperature range, avoid harsh direct sun if you can, and observe the listed cure time before washing.
If you're stuck. If a piece doesn't seem to match any pillar, don't peel it. Take a photo with the piece held in place and call us.
Why the labeling step matters. Once a liner is off and the tape has been pressed, repositioning is no longer simple. Every choice about side, position and orientation should be made during the dry fit, with the liners still in place. The labels carry those decisions forward so the install itself becomes a calm, repeatable routine, one piece after another.
Care. Mild soap, water and a soft cloth. No steel wool, abrasive pads or gritty polish. Look through the PP10481 photos before starting.

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.
