Product Description
PP10061: Six-Piece Polished Stainless Pillar Post Set, Mercedes E Class Sedan 2010-2016
What is PP10061? A six-piece set of pillar post trim in polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, for the Mercedes E Class 4-door sedan from 2010 through 2016. The pieces lay over the existing pillar surfaces around the side windows and attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape.
Is there a smaller set? Yes. PP10060, listed on the same sheet with the same 4-door sedan tag, has four pieces. In words, the catalog doesn't say which pillars this set's two further pieces cover. Open the photos for both listings side by side and you'll see the difference. If that wider coverage is what you're after, this is the set; if not, the four-piece set has less to fit. We're happy to compare them with you at 877-752-3811. Prep for the E Class pillars is on the Installation tab.
Will it fit my car? The fitment row reads Mercedes E Class, 2010-2016, 4-door, sedan, and the title matches. Check the E Class falls in 2010 to 2016. If it's in range and your car is the 4-door sedan, you're covered by the listing. Anything else, call Quality Automotive Trims before ordering and mention PP10061.
Will I need tools or drilling? No drilling. The tape installs directly over the existing surface, so nothing comes off the car. You'll want soapy water, a clean towel, rubbing alcohol, and a roll of painter's tape for marking. PP10061 fit questions are welcome at 877-752-3811.
How do I keep six pieces straight? Before a liner comes off, set the six E Class covers on a towel in roughly their on-car arrangement, using the gallery to decide. Hold each piece to its pillar to confirm the fit, then label the liner. With six similar pieces, labeling is the step that saves the most frustration. All six covers are polished stainless steel, listed for the E Class.
What does the install look like? Clean each pillar with soapy water, dry it, and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Take one labeled piece, peel its liner, line it up with the pillar's edges, and press firmly from one end to the other. Run a fingertip along each edge. Finish the first group of pieces, then step back and check them before doing the rest. Compare all six when you're done. Install on a dry day within the temperature range shown in the Installation tab, and give the tape its listed cure time before washing.
What if the pillar surface is damaged? Stainless can't hide a lifting or flaking finish under it, and tape won't bond well to it. Repair any damage first, and remove wax or sealant from the bonding area. If you aren't sure whether the surface is sound, press on it gently; anything that flexes or flakes needs attention.
How do I clean it later? Mild soap and water with a soft cloth. Skip abrasive pads and steel wool. Wipe off any glass cleaner that lands on the stainless.

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.
