Product Description
Eight-Piece Pillar Post Trim with Front Triangle, Buick Roadmaster Sedan 1992-1997 (PP32596)
PP32596 is the eight-cover sedan set for the 1992-1997 Buick Roadmaster, and it's the one sedan listing whose note mentions a triangle. The note reads "Includes rear, rear and front triangle." It's $95.49, in polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, and its row is tagged 4-door, Sedan.
That note is the main difference from the other sedan sets. PP32597, with six covers, is noted "Includes rear, rear," with no triangle mentioned. PP32595, with four, has no note at all. So if you want a front triangle in polished steel on your sedan, this is the listing that says so. The note doesn't break down the rest of the eight, and no widths are given, so check the gallery to see where each shape goes and match them to your car.
The wagon has its own sets, PP32591, PP32592, PP32593 and PP32598, all tagged 4-door, Wagon. PP32598 is also an eight-cover set, but it's noted "NO front triangle" and listed for the wagon, so it isn't an alternative for a sedan. The rocker panel kits TH32592 and TH32596 are tagged Sedan but are a separate part sold on their own.
For help reading the gallery, call Quality Automotive Trims on 877-752-3811 and quote PP32596. With eight pieces, a triangle among them, it's worth going through the photos piece by piece with the car in front of you, and we're glad to do that over the phone.
The covers are cosmetic. Each lies over a post or the triangle area by the glass, and the doors, windows and seals keep working as they do. The 304 alloy resists corrosion by its makeup, with no plating.
All eight attach with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape that grips the paint or trim already there. There's no drilling and no trim to remove from the Roadmaster. The Installation tab gives the temperature range and cure time.
Eight spots need a sound surface, including the triangle area. Check each for a powdery film, fine cracks, a curling edge, or an old wax or polish layer, and fix it first. Wash with car soap, rinse, dry completely, and wipe each spot with rubbing alcohol on lint-free cloths, using fresh cloths until one stays clean.
Lay out car soap, a bucket, alcohol, plenty of cloths, painter's tape and a pencil, and enlist someone to compare the covers from a few steps back.
Choose shade and a dry, calm day. Lay out the eight next to the gallery and call us about anything bent or missing. Sort them against the photos, triangles included. Liner on, offer each to its place, ease it until the gap is even, and box it in with painter's tape. Peel the liner, set the piece in its box, and press firmly along its length and every edge. Press on the next of the eight covers before moving ahead.
If a piece won't lie flat, keep the liner on and phone 877-752-3811. Once cured, wash the eight with car soap and dry them with a soft towel.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 8 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.
