    Thinking of replacing the cheese grater with an low price SR grill I found on CR. It has the standard chrome emblem and I'm wondering if I can do a direct swap-out of the sensor emblem from my OR grill into the SR without losing any performance quality. Any input is appreciated.

    Is it an 18 or greater SR grille? If so then I believe so ... otherwise I’d probably have to say no.

    Yes, the sensor setups are the same for all models except the TRD Pro.

    Just needs to be from a vehicle with the sensor (2018+ Canada/USA models).

    The SR grille as UAF. Get a Pro grille.

    Opinions are like assholes

    But yes you can swap them as long as the grille is from a 2018+

    I think only the 2016/2017 TRDs have the infamous 'cheese grater' grill.

    Hmm. Now that you mention it, mine (2019) looks more like a veggie chopper. In either case, as others have done, an SR grill swap is an intriguing idea.

    Yes. Just make sure the new grille has TSS capability 27C52123-CC22-4EFA-9AFD-E57C47BB3134.jpg
