    How do these things attach if they don't use double sided tape? I assume they are secure however they go on. Also do they help with the wind buffeting in the cab with the windows half down?

    Thanks

    Why - derping the Toyota logo on the grill works just fine.

    These trucks should have a NO f-ing Chrome option from the factory.

    The fronts just slide into place. The rears have some double sided tape to help secure them. Even though the fronts just slide in, you actually have to work them a bit to get them in. They are very snug. I don't think they could ever fall out without something (or someone) grabbing them.

    I never noticed any issue with the windows halfway down, so I can't comment on that. However, they definitely do deflect the wind out a bit, so maybe...:confused:

    Re-geared to 4.56 in back. Tried to do the front but a #&($)@##$$ seized LCA bolt had other plans. Tried impact gun, PB blaster, BFH, and torch all with no luck. Even bent my breaker bar trying to get the damn thing off. Will try again tomorrow/Monday before seeking professional help :(
