Product Description
Kia Soul 2010-2013 Stainless Window Trim Package WP10831, Upper Trim & Pillar Posts, 16 Pieces
WP10831 is a sixteen-piece polished stainless steel Window Trim Package for the 2010-2013 Kia Soul 4-door hatchback. Its note reads "Includes Upper Trim and Pillar Posts, NO Window Sills".
Where it sits among the Soul packages
Three window packages are linked for this hatchback in the record. The twenty-piece WP10830 has everything: upper trim, pillar posts and sills. This sixteen-piece set drops the sills. The ten-piece WP10832 keeps the upper trim and sills but drops the pillar posts. Pick the one that matches the areas you want covered.
Fitting sills later
A four-piece Window Sill Trim Set, WS10830, is linked for the same Soul. The record doesn't say whether it's designed to complete this package, so call 877-752-3811 before ordering the two together. The same goes for the separate pillar post sets, PP10830 to PP10833.
Construction
- High-quality polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel
- Made in the USA
- Installs over the existing surface
- 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape
QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Two groups to sort
The record doesn't say how the sixteen pieces divide between upper trim and pillar posts, or which door each belongs to. Compare every piece with the photos and form two piles, then split each by door. Label the backing of each piece as you go.
Surface prep
Begin with a wash and a thorough dry around every window. Just before each piece is applied, treat its spot with wax-and-grease remover and then isopropyl alcohol. Shield the rubber seals with a cloth while you clean.
Pillars first or upper first?
The record doesn't set an order. Whatever you choose, keep to it on every door so the joints between upper pieces and pillar pieces look the same all round. Check each joint from a step back before moving on.
Applying each piece
Hold it up with the backing on and tab its ends with painter's tape. Swing the door through its range to check clearance. Then peel a short length of backing, set the end on its tab, and smooth the piece down as the rest of the backing comes away. Finish with firm pressure along its length.
Conditions
A dry, temperate day out of harsh sun suits the tape. Expect the job to take several hours, and don't wash the car until the following day.
Upkeep
Soapy water and a microfiber cloth are enough to keep the polish bright. A non-abrasive stainless cleaner deals with smudges.
On delivery
Count all sixteen pieces and store them flat. If any piece won't follow its window as the photos show, leave the backing in place and ring us with a photo. The morning after fitting, press down any edge that has lifted. A helper makes the long upper pieces far easier to keep straight.
Keep the box until every piece has been on for a day.

Installation tips: Window Trim Package
- Unpack all 16 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.
