Product Description
Kia Soul 6-Piece Pillar Trim with Rear Triangle Piece, 2020-2025 (PP70831)
The catalog note is the headline here: PP70831 includes a rear triangle piece. This six-piece set of polished stainless steel pillar covers is listed for the 4-door Kia Soul hatchback, model years 2020 through 2025.
What "rear triangle" means
The rear triangle is a small trim section toward the back of the side window line. QAA's data says this kit includes a piece for it. That note appears on this kit and not on the four-piece PP70830 or the eight-piece PP70832, according to the sibling records. The catalog does not detail the shape of each piece, so the photos on this page are your guide to exactly what is in the box.
Fitment details
Kia Soul, 4-door hatchback, 2020 through 2025. If your Soul is outside that span, this kit is not listed for it. The Fitment tab shows the exact record.
Six as the sweet spot
Six covers give more stainless than the four-piece kit, and the rear triangle piece carries the polish toward the back of the glass. For many Soul owners, that is the balance they are after: a visible upgrade that looks considered rather than heavy.
The steel
QAA makes all six covers in the USA from 304 stainless steel at 26 gauge and polishes them to a mirror finish. There is no plated surface, so the shine is consistent across the set and has nothing to peel.
Mounting method
Each of the six Soul pieces, the rear triangle included, is held over the existing surface by 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, and nothing is taken apart. QAA states that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the hatchback.
Install notes
- Wash the pillars and the rear triangle area, then dry them.
- Remove wax so the tape bonds to a clean surface.
- Dry-fit every cover, including the small triangle piece.
- Peel the liner and press firmly from end to end.
- Avoid washing for a few days.
Work on a dry, mild day. The Installation tab has the full method.
Small pieces need attention
Triangle pieces are easy to place the wrong way round. Match each one to its side and orientation during the dry-fit, and compare with the photos before peeling the liner.
Care
Rinse the covers, wash them with mild soap and dry with a soft towel, keeping abrasive pads off the mirror finish.
Other sizes
PP70830 has four pieces and PP70832 has eight, both with the same Soul fitment. Each kit is a complete set. If the rear triangle piece is important to you, keep in mind that the catalog attaches that note to this six-piece kit; for the eight-piece kit, the data is silent, so compare photos or call before deciding.
What the pillars are
The pillars are the vertical posts that frame the side windows and hold up the roof. Polished covers give them a bright outline that stands out against the paint. Everything here is cosmetic; the original posts stay in place underneath.

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.
