Product Description
Toyota Highlander 2001-2007 Pillar Post Trim, Eight Pieces (PP24109)
PP24109 is the eight-piece pillar set for the 2001-2007 Toyota Highlander 4-door SUV: eight polished stainless covers, made in the USA, priced at $100.99. Two other Highlander pillar listings are linked as alternatives, PP24110 with four covers and PP24111 with six.
A word about the Window Trim Package
Among the linked Highlander parts is WP24110, a Window Trim Package. Its catalog note says it includes upper trim, pillar posts and window sills. The listings don't say how its pillar pieces compare with this set. If you're weighing that package as well, read its page and compare its photos with these before ordering both. Quality Automotive Trims can confirm on 877-752-3811; quote PP24109.
Picking a pillar set
The three pillar listings share the same fitment and material. None names its pillars, gives a width or carries a note. So the photos are the only way to see the difference. Open all three galleries, starting with this one, and try to place each of the eight shapes on your Highlander. Then see what the four and six-piece sets show. Decide how many areas you'd like in stainless and buy the matching set. One eight-piece Highlander set is the plan; call 877-752-3811 before combining.
Fitment
Toyota Highlander, 2001-2007, 4-door, SUV. Seven model years.
What pillar trim is
Cosmetic covers for the posts between the side windows. They give those posts a polished steel face and leave everything structural, and all the original trim, in place.
Material
26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished. It resists corrosion and has no plating to peel, and a normal wash keeps it bright.
Mounting and surface
On the 2001-2007 Highlander, each of the eight covers mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing pillar surface, so no holes and no trim off. Plan around the Installation tab's temperature range and cure time.
Since the tape grips the current finish, inspect each post first. A chalky haze, fine cracks or a lifting edge should be repaired before fitting. A firm, smooth surface needs only a thorough clean.
Fitting eight covers
Organization helps with this many pieces. On a dry, calm day in the shade, unpack and compare each cover with the photos, calling if one is bent or missing. Match them to the photos and lightly pencil each one's position on its liner. Wash and dry the posts, then wipe each with isopropyl alcohol until a fresh lint-free cloth stays clean. Dry-fit and frame every cover with painter's tape before peeling any liner. Then fit them one by one, pressing firmly along the length and both edges, and step back now and then to compare. A step stool helps with the upper edges, and a helper makes the dry fit easier.
Should any of the Highlander's eight covers resist sitting flat, leave its liner on and phone 877-752-3811. After curing, wash them with car soap and towel them dry.
Time
Plan a longer session than a small set needs. Marking eight positions is most of the work; each cover then presses on quickly. Before you order, take the gallery out to the Highlander and make sure every shape has a clear home.

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.
