    I'm in. I read Post #32 re:struts not installing right on a 2013 Tacoma, so I sent an email to Redline. FYI. This is the reply I received, so it looks like it's ok for a 2013 Tacoma:

    I haven't heard of any issues with the 2013... we will update our website as soon as we know for sure or see evidence of the changes.

    Thanks for the heads up...

    If any Canadians on the WEST would like to ship to my Amercian Address we can arrange that and then you pay me to ship the product to you. Makes no difference to me. I have to cross to get mine. If you want this done please PM me or let me know. There will be specific shipping instructions so I can in fact pick the product up.

    But please check shipping prices from Abbotsford, B.C., to where ever you are first. See if there is a difference between their shipping price to what your's will be. PM me for my postal code if you're interested.

    Is there any update or news as to whether or not there is a fitment issue with the 2013 models? Thanks.

    I might be in but I want to do a little research on the different models. Also, would Redline include the EZ down into this group buy?

    Sorry for the delay, I didn't subscribe to the thread and forgot to update it.
    The lower bracket was actually my goof. However, the one that goes on the hood straddles the notch that is meant to be a weak spot in a front impact collision so the hood bends. If you install the bracket at the prescribed measurements, the hood will not work as designed in a front-impact crash. The struts will work just fine, though.
    You could just move the bracket to either side of the notch, but I feel that if you move it further towards the firewall side and the strut will not compress all the way. And if you move it towards the grill the strut may not be long enough to snap on to the bracket.

    I'll fire off an email to Redline and see what they say.
    In the meantime, can someone with a 2012 measure from the outer most edge of the bracket that the hood bolts onto, to the edge of the notched area I'm talking about?

    Here is the spot I'm talking about. This is where specified16" from the upper edge of the hood hinge measures out to:

    Got a reply from Redline I'll be supplying them with additional pictures but as of now it looks as though the 2013 is, in fact, slightly different.
    I would suggest the 2013 owners HOLD OFF, for now.

    As per the note above about 2013's, I will remove myself from the list so as not to create confusion for others. Thanks!
