    I think it’s a matter of year. Pre and post ‘18 will both fit the tss, but one comes with the garnish perhaps? It’s been a while since I ordered mine but there was definitely a price difference but either worked.

    4Runner Trail wheels and Toyo Open Country ATII tires 265-70-17. Cosmetic stuff like Pro grille and OffRoad black bumper trim, vinyl delete on side, added hood graphic, OEM tube steps.
    When I search their site it gives me a price of $233.12. Other places it's $400. What gives?

    Some dealers' sites say they won't even sell to non-TRD Pro owners with proof of damage.

    And I am confused about the various TSS covers. One seems to be a smooth, smoked/clear lens and the other one I saw on some new trucks at the dealer today is a black honeycomb looking thing.

    Where did you obtain those parts at those prices? I've got a feeler out to gunny1005 at Camelback and should hear back tomorrow.

    Are the parts for my '19 with TSS different than the parts for a 2016-2018?

    I ordered the PT228-35180 from Pinehurst yesterday for my 2016 limited along with the non- glass garnish/lens ($26.99) and clips ($6) from eBay.

    I think the PT228-35170 is the correct Pro grill for the 2016 without sensor but it’s $376.29 from Pinehurst.

    From what I’ve read, the glass garnish/lens seems to be for the newer Pros and the non- glass garnish/lens for the 2017??? I prefer the non-glass finish, but it doesn’t really matter in my case since it doesn’t have a sensor.

    The glass sensor is for TSS equipped trucks.

Haha!

    I just tried both part numbers at toyotapartsdeal and they both came up as $400. One number even said it superceded to the other.

    Appears Satin (smooth and slight shine, similar to well, satin house paint sheen), it is a Genuine Toyota Part and comes packaged and labeled as such, same as grille that is installed at the factory on the TRD Pro as far as I can tell.

    Ouch, I just had a look,...my order was placed on 10/22/2018, maybe they caught on, probably just more Red Tape from Toyota to deter sales. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Lmao! Probably! :D I used a local dealer's inventory to retrieve the VIN, actually now that I think about it, it was at the dealer I purchased. Haha!
