    There is a high theft of tailgates, maybe AC compressors too. Check Kijiji.

    Rockauto.com sounds like a really good option OP.

    This is from my local mechanic, he said the local Toyota dealer said about a grand just for the compressor, he's looking for a cheaper option for me as they seem to be a ripoff. I printed out the rockauto.com and other websites for him. I luckily have a great/honest local mechanic.
