    Are you talking about the OEM gravel guard/engine slash guard?

    or do you have an aftermarket skid?

    Interesting. 90080-11373 are correct bolts. You paid $2.73 per bolt. I paid $1.67 per bolt. At any Toyota Parts counter it never hurts to ask: "Is that your best price?".

    BTW, these are NOT "self-tapping", they screw in to threaded receptors. The correct heads are 12mm; those with 13mm seem to have correct threads. I replaced all mine with the correct bolts; someone had put in mixed 13 mm and 12 mm-head bolts (made removal confusing), and mixed bolt lengths. These bolts should all be the same length.

    The bolts are referred to as self tapping although they are installed into threaded holes. They are most likely used in that spot due to the buildup of rust and dirt.
