    That’s good to hear then ... I assume you have the ‘19 with the newer style TSS sensor?

    I think when it will rain or snow your sensor might act up if no garnish.

    I highly recommend checking into that. You can confirm with the Toyota owner’s app

    Most tedious thing was getting the grill out of the existing body trim.. probably 25 tabs that are kind of annoying to push through.. but reinstallation is a snap..
