    Do you guys think the hilux grill will fit the tacoma grill. I saw an awesome mesh gril for the toyota hilux online but afraid it won't fit the tacoma.

    Yeah but if you just looked at the two grilles. It doesnt take much to see that there is no way it would fit. I've been drinking all day and slept with countless ugly women in my time because of the sauce. It causes poor judgements and blackouts. However, I can still tell you that grille doesnt fit, but I cant drive out of my driveway right now.

    You better not be sober asking such foolishness.

    Yah, but the hilux hood is shorter and slopes away much more quickly. I don't see how the grills could be anywhere near the same.

    They must have awesome visibility up front...if only they sold it in the US.

    It looks like the cabin is a little bit smaller too, but that could just be an illusion.

    Now THAT was funny!

    Yeah, that's a big negative on compatibility between the two models. I got to see a bunch of them over in Cambodia, and their grills are much narrower -- you could almost take and stack two of the Hilux grills to make a Taco grill.
