    I damaged my 2022 tacoma sr5 double cab front grill frame. Not the grill just the frame. I found a replacement. I broke the mounting “pin” on the top right of the frame and the plastic piece it snaps into. I can’t figure out if that plastic piece is part of the headlight bracket. Can anybody help?

    The dealer only sells the complete grill assembly (grill and painted outer grill frame).

    Post a pic of the damaged part in order to better understand the damage

    Here’s some pics. I checked the passenger side and confirmed the grill frame appears to snap into the headlight bracket. I broke that bracket. I saw just the frame of the grill for sale by after market seller. Should I trust it?
