Product Description
Eight Stainless Pillar Covers for the 2016-2022 Honda Pilot (PP16262)
Eight pieces, polished 304 stainless, one Honda Pilot row from 2016 to 2022. PP16262 is the second-largest pillar set QAA lists for the 4-door Pilot SUV, sitting between the six-piece PP16261 and the ten-piece PP16263.
Why the ten-piece note matters here
The ten-piece set is the only Pilot listing that says it "Includes Front Pillar behind the mirror." This eight-piece listing doesn't mention that pillar, and it has no notes of its own. So if a cover behind the mirror is what you're after, PP16263 is the set that names it. If not, compare this gallery with the ten-piece and six-piece photos and decide which outlines you want. The four-piece PP16260 carries its own note, "Includes top crease," which isn't mentioned here either. Four Pilot sets exist, and they're meant as choices, not as pieces to stack; ring us first if you'd mix them.
What we can and can't tell you
We can tell you the count, the metal, the origin and how it mounts. We can't tell you which posts the eight covers dress, because the listing doesn't say, and we won't fill that in by guesswork. The photos show each outline clearly. For anything they don't answer, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 and mention PP16262.

When the box arrives
Count the covers first; there should be eight. Match each one to its outline in the product photos and keep them flat, liners on, until installation day. If one is bent or a piece is missing, call before you begin rather than halfway through the job. It's also a good moment to decide which post you'll start on, so the covers stay in order.
Matching Pilot trim
From the same sheet: TH16260, the four-piece lower rocker panel kit listed at 1.25, which spans upward from the bottom of the door; GC16260, a single gas door cover trim; LP16260, a license plate bezel with an opening for the rear backup camera; and RD16260, a single rear deck accent at 0.75. RD16260 is a rear deck accent for this SUV, so check its photos first. WQ16260, LB16260 and TP16260 are cross-listed by number.
On installation day
Pick a dry, mild day and work in shade. Wash the pillar areas with car shampoo and dry them with a microfibre towel. Wipe each area with isopropyl alcohol and let it evaporate, and strip off wax or sealant where tape will sit.
Match the eight covers to the photos before peeling anything. Test-fit each with its liner in place, trace the pillar edges by eye, and mark the position with painter's tape. Then peel, place and press each cover firmly along its length and both edges. Leave the Pilot dry for the cure time given on the Installation tab.
A cover that won't sit right should stay on its liner until you've called 877-752-3811.

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.
