Product Description
Hyundai Sonata 2011-2014 Sedan: Eight-Piece Polished Stainless Pillar Post Set (PP11362)
The eight-piece PP11362 is the largest pillar post set QAA lists for the 2011-2014 Hyundai Sonata 4-door sedan. It's polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA, and the title, row and body tag all point to the same car.
Pillar posts are the upright strips between and beside the side windows. A set like this covers them in bright metal, and the bigger the set, the more of those surfaces it can reach. The catalog doesn't say which pillars these eight pieces cover, or what the four-piece PP11360 and six-piece PP11361 leave out. The photos are where the answer is. If you want the most complete pillar coverage QAA offers for this sedan, start by comparing the eight-piece photos against your car.
Watch for overlap with WP11360
The 14-piece Window Trim Package WP11360 says it includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills. If that package is on your list, compare its pillar posts with this set's photos before buying both. Buy one or the other, and if you're not sure, call. The six-piece WP11361 is the opposite case: Upper Trim only, NO Pillar Posts, NO window sills. That's the package that leaves the pillars open for a separate set. A third package, WP11362, is listed by number only on this sheet.
Other Sonata parts on the sheet
Also listed: GC11360 (1-piece gas door cover trim), MC11360 (2-piece mirror cover set, includes a cut out for the turn signal light), TH11361 (4-piece lower rocker kit, doors only, from the bottom of the door up to a 1.25-1.625 width), plus WQ11360 and DH11361 by number.
Mounting
3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, applied directly over the existing surface. No drilling and nothing removed from the car.
Doing it well
Wash the pillars with soapy water, rinse, and dry. Follow with a rubbing alcohol wipe on a lint-free cloth and let it evaporate. Any wax or coating where tape will land has to come off.
Eight pieces reward a little organisation. Hold each of the eight Sonata covers in place with its liner on, and label the liner once you're sure. Painter's tape at each end of each pillar gives you a target. Peel one, press it firmly along its length, run a fingertip down the edges, then move to the next. Compare sides before you call it done. Follow the Installation tab for temperature and cure time.
Care
For cleaning, mild soap on a soft cloth works; keep abrasive pads and steel wool away.

Before you order
Check it's a 2011 to 2014 Sonata sedan. Then look at the window packages: if WP11360 is in your plans, you may not need this set. If you're going with WP11361 or no package at all, this eight-piece set is the fullest pillar option on the sheet. A dry day and no rush is a fair plan.

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.
