Eight pillar kits, sorted by keypad
The Escape has eight pillar choices, and the deciding detail is the exterior keyless entry touch pad:
- Includes the keypad piece: PP53360 (four pieces), PP53361 (six, sheer three sides), PP53363 (ten, with front triangle)
- Without the keypad piece: PP53364 (four), PP53365 (six, sheer three sides), PP53367 (ten, no keyless entry access, with front triangle)
- No keypad note: PP53362 (eight, includes the rear rear pillar piece) and PP53366 (six)
Check whether your Escape has the keypad before choosing.
Two rear pieces
This deck accent has a neighbor on the gate: TP53360, a one-piece trunk hatch accent trim, 0.675 inch wide, with a top trim crease. The data does not say how the two are spaced; the photos show each one's position.
Sides and details
- TH53360, an eight-piece rocker insert kit, 1.25 inches, side molding
- WQ53360, a four-piece wheel well set
- WS53360, a ten-piece window sill set, 0.625 inch, covering the face of the sill only
- DH53360, a four-piece door handle accent
- GC53360, a gas door cover trim with a notch for the finger grip contour
Preview the width
An inch and a half across the gate. Use painter's tape of that width in the photographed spot to see it before you order.
Steel, tape, and claim
26-gauge 304 stainless, mirror-polished, with no plating. The 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape is used and mounts it over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
Gate prep
Wash and dry. Wipe the footprint with a residue-free cleaner until a clean cloth shows nothing. Repair chips first.
Installing with the hatch trim
If TP53360 is in your order, hold both rear pieces up with liners on and settle the spacing first. Mark the deck strip's line with painter's tape measured from both ends, then press it on from the center outward on a dry, mild day.
Care
Wait a few days to wash; then mild soap and a soft cloth.
What it is
Decorative trim; it doesn't replace any factory part.
Why stainless
Polished 304 has no plated layer, so the mirror finish is the steel itself. A light scuff from loading the cargo area shows more of the same metal rather than a different base underneath.
The window sill note
If you're also considering WS53360, its listing says it covers the face of the window sill only. That's the one coverage detail the data gives for the sills, so picture just the outward-facing surface getting trim.
Before ordering
Confirm the year and, if pillar trim is on your list, the keypad.

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.
