    Thanks man, mine is a 2012.

    Consider yourself lucky that you already have that carpet on your back panel. It is pretty pricey for what it is.

    Haha, I don't have the carpet on the back panel. I'm eventually gonna do the bucket seat swap and will need that piece. Any info on your seat swap, air bag connections mainly, would be appreciated.

    What did you end up paying if you don't mind? I did the same swap on my 1st gen a long time ago. It was around $500 back then. Now they are a unicorn part. Super rare.

    List was like $700 at my local dealer but I did get it online for a little under $500. Below are the costs involved for all the new OEM parts related to the swap. The console is of manual transmission type. I used a 2015 TRD Pro VIN that has manual transmission to pull up the console part numbers since they have all black console. The console comes together from two parts (front and rear).

    Changed my spark plugs. Drivers side is always a pain, but easy job overall. Old spark plugs looked barely used.

    I definitely like how it is constructed and the fit and finish is excellent. Very pleased that it arrived powder coated so I can install right out of the box.

    Took it up to Mt. Ranier, sort of a little shakedown run and got lucky with the good weather.
