A vehicle pillar trim piece bracket includes a body carrying a panel- or flange-engaging portion held in a first plane and a trim piece stand-off portion held in a second plane that is different from the first plane. In combination, the body, the panel- or flange-engaging portion, and the trim piece stand-off portion may define a three-dimensional L shape. The body includes an elongated positioning wall and a fore-aft positioning rib disposed on a first end and one or more up-down control fingers disposed on a second, opposed end. The trim piece stand-off portion includes a neck and a pillar trim piece-supporting head which includes one or more vertical rotation controlling ribs and an edge configured to matingly abut a pillar trim structural feature. The panel- or flange-engaging portion includes a plurality of staggered fingers and a plurality of offset tunable ribs disposed to define an interference-fit panel receiver.
