Product Description
Eight Polished Stainless Pillar Pieces for the Toyota Rav4 SUV, 2013-2018 (PP13182)
PP13182 is an eight-piece pillar post set for the Toyota Rav4, 2013 through 2018, tagged 4-door SUV. The covers are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, made in the USA. It's third of the four Rav4 pillar sizes, with PP13180 (four), PP13181 (six) and PP13183 (ten) alongside it.
The by-number parts
Five numbers on this sheet appear without any details: RW13180, TH13180, TH13181, WP13180 and WP13181. We know nothing about them from this listing, not their type, piece count or contents. That matters if you're planning a larger project, because if any of them were to include pillar pieces, you could end up doubling up. We won't guess from the numbers. If any of those five is on your list, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and we'll tell you what each one is before you buy this set alongside it.
The parts that do have details are DH13180 (4-piece door handle accent trim), DH13181 (8-piece door handle cover kit), AT13180 (4-piece body side molding accent trim, width 1) and GC13180 (1-piece gas door cover trim).
Picking eight
None of the Rav4 pillar listings names its pillars or has a note, so compare photos. Eight is a good choice if six pieces miss a pillar you'd want covered and ten bring pieces you'd rather skip. One set only; the data doesn't say whether they overlap.
Fit check
The row names the Rav4 4-door SUV from 2013 to 2018. Quote PP13182 when you call.
Attachment
On this 2013-2018 RAV4 set, every cover goes onto the existing pillar surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. No drilling, and no Toyota trim comes off.
A steady install
Clean the pillars with a mild car soap, rinse and dry, then wipe with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free cloth and let it flash off. Strip wax or coating where tape will sit.
Lay the eight covers on a towel, following the photos. Offer each to its pillar with the backing on. If its edges don't follow the pillar, recheck it against the photos. When it fits, painter's tape at each end and its location noted on the backing. Dry-fit all eight before peeling.
Peel one backing at a time, set the cover between its marks and press firmly end to end, then both edges. A step stool helps with the upper ends. Fit four, then the rest, and compare them from a few steps back. The Installation tab lists the temperature range and cure time.
Stop points
If a cover won't sit flush on either side, keep the backing on, photograph it in place and call us.
Light and tools
Work in shade or a garage, with a bucket, soap, towels, rubbing alcohol, a lint-free cloth, painter's tape, a marker and the product photos close by.
Upkeep
Mild soap and a soft cloth keep the eight pieces clean; leave abrasive pads out.
This set's data is listed on the Fitment and Specs tabs.
A helper standing back can confirm each cover looks level before its backing comes off.

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.
