Plugging holes after removing predator steps?

I believe the actual Toyota Part number for the plug is 90467-a0014

 

Thanks for the part suggestion, @Enchilada!

It was nice to be able to complete my step tube uninstall on a Sunday.

FWIW - Here's what they look like installed ... nice and flush

FWIW2 - This is what the OEM plugs look like installed (not my pic)

 

Easier to just apply gorilla tape over those holes .

 

Thinking of plugging these holes, would it be a good idea to insert these ford plugs with a gob of silicon caulking?

 

I bought Predator side steps for my 2023 Taco but the wholes aren't there. The side steps came from a 2024 Tacoma. I don't want to drill holes in my truck. I'd rather have a dealership do it. Anyone have this issue? Any solutions?

 

Dude, the 23 and 24 Tacomas are two different animals, so you bought a part not made for your truck. . And I doubt that the dealer will drill holes in your truck to make these 4Gen steps work on your Gen 3. Maybe an indy body shop will do it.
