Product Description
Eight Stainless Pillar Pieces for the 2012-2019 Toyota Prius C Hatchback (PP12707)
PP12707 sits right in the middle of the five Prius C pillar sets. It has eight pieces, cut from 26 gauge 304 stainless and polished, made in the USA, and the fitment row reads Toyota Prius C, 2012-2019, 4-door hatchback.
Is the middle size the right size? It can be. With four- and six-piece sets below it (PP12705, PP12706) and ten- and twelve-piece sets above it (PP12708, PP12709), the eight-piece set is a sensible place to start comparing. Look at its photos, then the next size up and down. If the six-piece photos miss a pillar you'd notice and the ten-piece photos show one you wouldn't, eight is the count for you. None of the five listings names its pillars or carries a note, so those photos are the whole story. Stick with one set; the catalog doesn't say whether any of them overlap.
What about the rocker kit? The sheet lists TH12705, a 4-piece lower rocker kit that goes on the doors only, running from the bottom of the door up to the listed 1.5. It's a separate job from the pillars, and nothing in its listing ties it to a particular pillar set. If you plan both, do them on different days so each gets fresh prep.
Anything else for the Prius C? WS12705, a 4-piece window sill trim set, and GC12705, a 1-piece gas door cover trim. LB12705, RD12705, LP12705 and RB12705 are listed by number only.
Will it fit my car? If it's a Toyota Prius C, a 4-door hatchback, and a model year from 2012 to 2019 according to your records, the row matches. If not, or if you're unsure, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with PP12707 ready.
How does it attach? 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, laid directly over the existing surface. No drilling and nothing comes off the car.
How clean does it need to be? Bare and dry. Use soapy water first, rinse it away, and let the pillars dry fully. Then degrease with rubbing alcohol on a cloth that won't shed lint, and wait a minute. Any wax or protective coating where the tape will go has to come off, and chipped finish should be fixed before anything covers it.
How do I keep eight pieces straight? Set them on a soft towel in the order the photos show. Hold each one up, liner on, and check that it sits flush along its length. If it doesn't, try it on another post. When it fits, mark each end with a strip of painter's tape and jot the location on the liner.
And the final press? One liner at a time. Align, then use firm thumb pressure from one end to the other and along both edges. Judge all eight together from a little distance. The Installation tab sets out the temperature window and cure time.
Upkeep? A soft cloth and mild soap. Never steel wool.

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.
