Product Description
PP10178: 6-Piece Stainless Pillar Trim, Toyota 4Runner 2010-2024
Six polished stainless pieces dress the pillars of a 2010-2024 Toyota 4Runner 4-door SUV in PP10178. It's the bigger of the two pillar sets on this sheet; PP10177 is the four-piece version with the same tags. Because the record doesn't list which pillars each count covers, the fairest comparison is the product photos of both, side by side.
Who this set is for. Two situations make a pillar set the right buy. One: you want only the pillars in stainless and nothing else. Two: you've chosen WP10178, the 4-piece window package noted "Includes Upper Trim only, NO Pillar Posts, NO window sills," and you want pillars to go with it. On the other hand, WP10177 is a 14-piece package noted "Includes Upper Trim, Pillar Posts and Window Sills - FULL Package," so if that's your choice, pillar posts are already in the box. The catalog doesn't confirm whether the package's pillar pieces are the same as these six, so call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 if you're comparing.
Fitment check. Toyota 4Runner, 2010 to 2024, 4-door, SUV, with the title in agreement. The 4Runner row runs 2010 to 2024.
Construction and mounting. 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished, made in the USA. 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, installed directly over the existing surface. No drilling. No notes or width are listed.
Labeling six pieces. Before peeling, order the 4Runner pieces by position from the gallery and test each against its pillar with the liner on. A two-letter code on each liner (side plus position) keeps the install moving. If a piece won't sit right, try it on a different pillar before assuming anything is wrong.
Surface work. Wash the pillars with soapy water, dry them thoroughly, and wipe with rubbing alcohol. Clear any wax or sealant from the contact area. Repair chips or peeling finish; tape can't bond to a failing surface.
Install. One at a time, peel a liner, line the piece up with the pillar's edges, and press firmly from end to end. A fingertip pass along both edges finishes it. After the first three covers, check from several steps away; after all six, compare them. Use a dry day in the temperature range from the Installation tab and wait the cure time before washing.
The rest of the sheet. DH10177 is an 8-piece door handle cover kit. GC10178 is a 1-piece gas door cover trim. LP10177 is a 1-piece license plate bezel. RD10177 is a 1-piece rear deck accent at 1.375 inches, listed for the back of this SUV, so look at its photos. WS10177 is listed by number only.
A long year range. The row runs from 2010 to 2024. An older 4Runner in that span may have faded or chalky pillar finish, while a newer one may carry a fresh coating from the dealer or a detailer. Both need attention before tape: repair the first, remove the second where the pieces will sit.
Care. Mild soap, water and a soft cloth. Never steel wool.

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.
