    what is so different from buying parts for a 2010 double cab compared to a 2011 double cab?

    Nope.....I ordered a stubby antenna from the "short antenna guy" on ebay. His listing was for 05-10, but I assumed there wouldn't be a difference for my new '11. Wrong. I emailed him about the fitment and he came back that the listing was for 05-10 and would not fit my '11.
    Why would they change that??????

    Some data bases are just not up to date. When I ordered my vent visors it only listed for up to 06 I think, but I checked just to be sure on the EGR web site and it even only listed for up to 2010.

    But it did! I received 4 different adapters with the antenna and none fit. He also informed me that there would be a 30% re-stocking fee if I returned it! It was only 13 bucks but with shipping it back it's a waste of time.

    Are you sure it wasn't just a shitty antenna?

    And I realized after I removed the big antenna that I didn't need it anyway.....I only listen to the SAT radio.

    Ok? So we've really uncovered nothing new about the differences between the 2010's and 2011's in the last 9ish posts. :cool:

    OP,

    Barring an anomaly yet to be discovered...there should not be anything different aside from the grille.

    I vote for shitty! Just because it didn't fit!

    I bought it based on what I saw on one of the "builds" that I think user KPT listed that he had bought.

    That's because you truck was built before December 2010. Mine was built in September 2010 and I have the original red dash lights. After Dec they switched to the new white dash.

    Yeah I know it changed at some point, mainly just posted that as for the fact that it wasn't the per year model change. Mine was manufactured 10/10 btw.

    I bought mine in mid-January 2011 and it was built in Baja De "Mexico" and have the new gauges.

    I believe the headlights and tail lights are different too.
