Product Description
Eight-Piece Polished Pillar Covers for the Kia Seltos, 2021-2026 (PP71862)
PP71862 has the most pieces of the three Kia Seltos pillar kits QAA lists. Eight polished stainless steel covers fit the 4-door Seltos SUV, model years 2021 through 2026.
Most pieces, one caveat
The six-piece PP71861 is the only Seltos kit with a catalog note about a triangle piece. This eight-piece kit has no such note, and QAA's data does not say whether it includes one. If the triangle piece matters to you, check the photos on both listings or call QAA before ordering. The four-piece PP71860 rounds out the range.
Vehicle
Kia Seltos, 4-door SUV, 2021 through 2026. The Fitment tab shows the record. No other vehicles are listed.
Polished 304 stainless
QAA makes all eight Seltos covers in the USA from 26 gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish, so every cover in the set is the same material and finish. Each of the eight shares that steel and that polish, from the first cover to the last.
What it does for the Seltos
Pillars are the vertical posts around the side windows. With eight polished covers, the glass gains a bold stainless outline. The covers are cosmetic and leave the original pillars untouched.
Mounting and installation
The Seltos covers fit over the existing pillar surface on 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the surface.
Lay the eight Seltos pieces on a soft towel by position. Wash, dry, and de-wax the pillars. Dry-fit each cover, then peel and press firmly along its length. Press one, step back, and repeat its reveal on the next. A dry, mild day is ideal; avoid washing for a few days. The Installation tab has full steps.
Alignment matters
With eight covers, the pillars read as one continuous line, so a single piece set off will stand out. Hold each in place and compare with the photos before pressing.
Care
To clean the Seltos covers, rinse off grit, wash with mild soap and dry with a soft towel each time to avoid water spots. Keep abrasive pads and harsh chemicals away from the polish.
Before ordering
Check that your Seltos is a 2021 through 2026 model, using the registration. Then decide whether the highest piece count or the triangle note matters more to you, and compare the photos on the three listings accordingly. If you are still unsure, QAA can describe the kits over the phone.
Why steel and not plating
Plated trim relies on a thin bright coating. These covers have none; the reflection is the stainless itself, which is why eight separate pieces can sit side by side and still look identical.
Choosing between six and eight
If you want the most covers, eight is the answer. If the triangle piece noted on the six-piece kit is the detail you care about, compare that listing first. Each kit is complete on its own.

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.
