Product Description
Toyota Prius C 2012-2019 Rear Deck Accent in Polished 304 Stainless (RD12705)
RD12705 is the rear deck accent QAA lists for the Toyota Prius C 4-door hatchback, model years 2012 through 2019. It is a single strip of 304 stainless steel with a mirror polish, made in the USA, and it mounts on the rear hatch with 3M tape.
The C, not the standard Prius or the V
Three Prius models appear in QAA's catalog with their own parts, and this one is for the Prius C only. Look for the "C" on the badge. If your hatch says something else, this is not the right listing; call and QAA will point you to the right one.
Eight years
The record covers 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 for the 4-door hatchback.
Size
No width or length is listed for this accent, so rely on the product photos to judge its size against your hatch. A call can answer measurement questions before you order.
Rear pieces for the Prius C
- RB12705, the rear bumper accent
- LB12705, a license bar above the plate
- LP12705, a license plate bezel
- GC12705, a gas door cover
Together with this accent, those dress every bright spot QAA lists for the back of the car.
Five pillar kit sizes
The Prius C has a deep pillar lineup: PP12705 through PP12709 in four, six, eight, ten, and twelve pieces. None of them carries a coverage note in the data, so the photos are the way to see what each larger kit includes.
Sides
TH12705 is a four-piece lower rocker kit, 1.5 inches wide, on the doors only, spanning up from the bottom of the door. WS12705 is a four-piece window sill set.
Material
26-gauge 304 stainless, mirror polished. No plating, so nothing can peel away.
Mounting
On the Prius C, the accent is fixed to the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states that tape will hold for a lifetime and won't mark the Toyota.
Prep on a small hatch
Hatches get touched every time they open, so they collect hand oils. Wash and dry the panel, then wipe the mounting area twice with a residue-free cleaner. Repair any chips before installing.
Install
Hold the accent in place with its liner on and compare to the photos. Measure from each end to the hatch edges, adjust until equal, and mark with masking tape. On a dry, mild day, peel the liner and press firmly from the center out. Wait a few days before washing. The Installation tab covers each step.
Order of work for the rear
Start with this deck accent at the top, then the license bar and bezel, then the bumper accent at the bottom. Each one gives you a reference for centering the next, and you can check all of them from a few steps behind the car before the last liner comes off.
Care
Mild soap and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and compounds, and dry the hatch after washing.

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.
