    Toyota lists as “bolt, rear body” or some such nonsense. Late model tundra use same bolt.
    Try ordering from trdparts.com, trdshop.com or toyotapartsdeal.com

    Don’t pay $15-16 list price.

    What about just clear coating them for a raw bolt look?
    Fewer steps.
    I gave all of mine a hot bath of Evaporust in an Ultrasonic cleaner.
    Then wire wheeled them.
    I used Silicone Paste on the threads.

    I would like to keep them in this state. Was thinking about just using a clearcoat.
