    I just purchased an intermittent wiper switch from there yesterday. I am sick of having only low and high as my options when it rains. when it does rain it is rarely that I need low as that is to fast. That place was the cheapest place I could find it 150 with shipping everywhere else I found was like 175 and up

    Very interesting...I usually buy from Lewis of Topeka, KS because they were always cheapest. It seems any of the dealers who were still on the parts.toyota.com platform no longer have individual dealer ordering sites, and it's all just through parts.toyota.com. Booooo.

    But if you go that route, free shipping on orders over $75 and right now they are doing an extra 5% off for end of summer sale.

    Edit: Scratch that, they are still "individual" dealer sites but Toyota changed the website design for more consistency which is good but confusing. https://autoparts.lewistoyota.com/ still cheapest for me for most things.

    You almost have to spend some time and shop stuff out. Pricing and shipping is all over the place.

    These are my usual go to's for shopping prices:
    Boch Toyota South
    Toyota Parts Deal
    Lewis Toyota
    McGeorge Toyota

    Yea shipping can be an issue as they're on the east coast. But, their inventory and service/turnaround has been great in my experience.

    Agreed. Never understood why they bothered making two different switches....

    To make an extra buck to pay for a more expensive package. I think its called the convivence package or something. Gives you keyless entry and cruise control too, I dont know why they sold trucks with out this stuff like it was 2015 when this truck was made.

    Racing to catch up to them, its pretty spectacular.

    Also someone posted the trims awhile back ago in here so I dont want to take credit for it but this specifies what everything has.

    I respectfully disagree! Oftentimes that race ends up being a disappointment. Far too many times over the years it has been a landslide victory for the winter to the point where people are leaving early because the conclusion is foregone.

    Yea... still got some work to do on the lower front. Trimmed the fender and wheel opening molding, but the inner is getting caught some when I flex. Looks freakin fantastic though!
