Its a five minute job to do - put the window down, pull back the window rubber, undo the two phillips screws and remove the old. Fit the gloss pillar, put the window rubber back and admire
Costs about £40 from the stealers. Well worth it though, looks loads better than the standard b pillars IMO.

ooOOoo.
Can you get these for the 4 door?
Will you also be glossing up the little plastic bit the mirror is connected to?

Your best bet is the dealership parts department mate - thats where I got mine from. I think they were standard equipment on some of the 9N Polos.
Don't bother buying new screws for them, just use the ones holding the originals in place!

I believe you can, but I seem to remember it costing over £100 for the parts - you need two pillars for each rear door IIRC.
