What is the part number for the little plugs that go in the holes where predator steps bolt on?

    Nothing major yet.
    I’m taking my predator steps off, and would like to get some oem plugs to put back in the holes. Does anyone know the part number? Or does anyone have some lying around they wouldn’t mind parting with?

    Not really a specific answer to your question, but I just put the mounting bolts back in after removing the Predators.

    Screw the 12 bolts back into the threaded holes. I gave my predator step bars to my step sister and I took her 12 plugs.

    If you want to sell your predator steps with the hardware (which you’ll get a little more for them that way), just go to the hardware store with one of the bolts and match it. I’ve had so many Toyotas over the years, I found 12 of the same size bolts in my parts drawers to plug the holes (and I sold the steps with the original bolts on facebook marketplace in a few days).

    If you plan to sell the step bars the bolt size is M8x1.25x30mm if you ever need it

    Here is link to the exact part (not oem but its the same size)
