Product Description
Toyota Prius V 2012-2017 Rear Deck Accent, 1.5 Inches, Mirror Stainless (RD12700)
RD12700 is a one-piece rear deck accent for the Toyota Prius V 4-door hatchback, model years 2012 through 2017. It is 1.5 inches wide, made in the USA from 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, and it mounts with 3M tape.
Prius V specifically
The fitment names the Prius V, not the standard Prius. QAA keeps separate listings for other Prius models, so check the badge on your hatch. If it reads Prius V and the year is 2012 to 2017, this is the listing.
Years
2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, all for the 4-door hatchback.
Rear set for the Prius V
- RB12700, the rear bumper accent
- LB12700, a two-piece license bar above the plate
- LP12700, a license plate bezel
- GC12700, a gas door cover
The license bar here is a two-piece item; the catalog does not describe how the pieces divide, so the photos show the layout.
A tall lower rocker kit
TH12700 is a four-piece lower kit with a width of 3.250 to 4.0625 inches, on the doors only, spanning up from the bottom of the door. That is a substantial amount of polished steel down the sides. TH12701 is the slimmer option: two pieces on the rocker at 1.25 inches, below the door.
Windows and more
WP12700 is the twenty-two-piece full window package. WS12700 is an eight-piece sill set at 0.625 inches. PP12700 and PP12701 are four- and six-piece pillar kits. WQ12700 wheel well trim is 0.875 inches, and SG12700 is a front grille accent.
Material
26-gauge 304 stainless, mirror polished. The finish is the steel, not a plating.
Mounting
Fitting the Prius V accent is a matter of 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and the existing surface beneath it. That tape, QAA says, will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the Toyota.
Hatch prep
Rear hatches pick up fingerprints and hand oils every day. Wash and dry, then wipe the area twice with a residue-free cleaner. Touch up any chips first.
Install
Dry-fit with the liner on. Measure from both ends to the hatch edges and mark with masking tape. On a dry, mild day, peel the liner and press from the middle out. Wait a few days before washing. If the bumper accent is going on too, use this one as the centering reference. The Installation tab has details.
Care
Mild soap and a soft towel. No abrasive pads.
Balancing the sides and the rear
If you are considering the tall lower rocker kit, the rear trim helps balance it. A deck accent, bezel, and bumper strip across the back give the car lines at the rear to go with the broad band down the sides; check each listing for its finish. For a lighter look, pair this accent with the slimmer on-the-rocker kit instead.
Why stainless
The finish is polished into the steel, so there is no coating to wear off, so check each linked Prius V listing for its finish.

Installation tips: Rear Deck Accent
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- 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.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
