2018 TSS Grille Swap.

Do you have a closer pic of those apples?

 

Sub for pics

 

I can take a pix but it will be angle since im not planning to remove the sensor from its connection , i already did this b4 but sensor reads the honey comb part so now that i have the garnish for it hope it will work as it should

 

China grill with garnish sensor installed

 

Question, will a 2018 grille fit a 2017 year model? I'm asking because its like 2x cheaper.

 

Yes it fits just fine thats what i have but u may need garnish for it

 

Find another dealer that is knowledgeable in the parts department. I just bought one and was cheaper than a China knock off. Just waiting on my garnish to come in.

 

What is this “garnish” that you speak of ?

 

Do you have a link to the grille you purchased? Thanks

 

I purchased the grille from Ebay. In my understanding the seller closed the account. I’ve heard now guys buying the grille from Amazon.
I have the grille over month installed and the TSS sensors have absolutely no issues.

 

Some enlightenment please: on all the 2016, 2017 and now 2018 grilles, except the TRD PROs there is a thin surround bezel, sometime chrome some, times color matched to the primary truck color. On the TRD PRO grilles there does not seem to be a bezel. Am I seeing that correctly?

 

The pro grill fills in the area where the bezel used to be. All one piece.


Just installed the TRD Pro OEM grille and garnish I ordered from Route22 Toyota. Is anyone having an issue with play on the Garnish? It seems like the plastic clips hold it in, but it can shift forward and back if I gently push on it.

 

Link??? Want to buy this like right now! Going to pick up my 2018 TRD OR today!

 

Ok I gotta chime in here with a question. I want to put a mesh grill on my 18 OR. Anyone heard anything about the sensor and the metal? Im thinking I could mount a piece of plexi on the outside middle and mount the sensor right behind it where it is on the oem grille. Really dont want the center piece already on my original grille so wondering if there would be interference with metal or plexi on the front or what.

 

Like any of these made for the 18 specifically.....

Any chance you’d part with the insert from the grille that you pulled out to put the tss garnish in?

 

i have one for anyone interested

 

Pm’d

 

I'm reviving this thread now that I've bought a 2018, does it look like I'm ready to go parts-wise? I'd like to order and get started asap. Thanks dudes!

 

Are dealerships selling these now? They were on a stop sale for a while. I'd be ready to buy. I want OEM.
