    Mud Flaps, Trailer Package, sill liners and floor mats Almost makes up for the premium we pay due to our sinking dollar. The mud flaps are no great win given they are hard polymer rather than a softer, bendable rubber. Come on Toyota you can source better.

    No Sir; Flat as a pancake! You peel off the back and stick them on. As I mentioned I originally thought they were plastic with a lip as well, but these will still definitely do the job and save the entry area!

    Those look like the ones I paid $24 for!! They are flat and the back goes under the rubber door moulding. No bending down . If my sills get chipped up I will buy the ones that have a bend to them.

    Hey TacoBella; I saw these on Amazon, but Amazon "Check Fit" said it didn't fit so I went with ones from the Dealership.

    I paid about double; whereas the ones you got look almost the same.

    My part number was
    $45 PT747-35161 Door Sill Protectors
    PT747-35161, but the Amazon picture looks identical. Hopefully others will be able to save some money!

    Amazon does not have the 16 up yet But I bought these for my 15 so I knew they would fit. Toyota did not change the cab sills.

    Bunch of bloody bastards! Suckered a schmuck like me into going to the dealer thinking they were different, and all the dealer probably did was grab some 2015 cab sills and re-sticker the package with a new 2016 label.

    :facepalm:

    Yeah. My truck had the sills preinstalled. I didn't realise it was an accessory. I thought it was standard.

    They originally wanted 45$ plus tax. Using my buddies discount saved me 14$ :). Next is the step bar. Just dunno what style I like. I really don't need it but it'll serve as more of a slam your door into my car and you'll be crying lol. Plus my little ladies could use a little help

    The ones I bought have the new part number for the 2016, and they look just like the ones in the photos below. The outer edge curves to match the sheet metal. The instructions say to remove the interior plastic sill plate and weather stripping before installation, and then replace afterward. The sill plate is pretty snug. Anyone know how to remove it before I yank it off?

    I didn't take off anything.
    Start at the bottom.
    A little warm air from a hairdryer helps on the corner and avoids air bubbles.
    Holding the decal on the weatherstrip-side, work your way inward a little at a time, across the entire length, watching for bubbles.
    Eventually, it'll want to lay up on the weatherstrip. I just made sure it did so evenly and continued working inward. Then it starts to get tight; lift the weatherstrip and it 'pops' into place.

    Make sure you start as low as you can on the bottom flat; it's a tight fit on the front-side of the front doors.

    Thanks for this splitbolt. That last part, where you say it is tight on the front side of the front doors. Meaning there is less clearance at the leading end, closest to the front of the vehicle?
