You’re surely right, I think it’s ridiculous that they decide what the customer “want”. They should pre-produce a bigger variety or produce it to customers order. I love the idea how Mercedes did it back in the old days where the car was absolutely basic and you decide exactly what get added, I mean piece by piece not that package bs, after you created they build it in exactly that way!
Unfortunately that doesn’t work when it comes to profit maximizing so we end up with packages like SR5, limited, OR, ORP... and the small amount of single extras that we can choose get chosen by market analysts.

But you’re wrong when it comes to preventing leaks on a moonroof. I had several cars in the past equipped with a moonroof, all uncovered parked outside, under trees etc. - non of the leaked!
Important is once a year a visual check, when the channels already got some grime than blow the drain spots and rinse afterwards with warm soap water. When the vehicle hits the 10years than check your drain hose connectors, it’s usually just a rubber hose and by then it lost already the softeners, depending on condition add a hoseclamp.

Keep the water channel free of debris, check the drain hose every so often and you'll be fine.

Fair enough. Moonroof’s a good thing because it’s one more thing we can perform maintenance on. And we can never have too many of those.

Probably a dumb question, but where are the water channels and drain hose?

Not a dumb question at all.

sunroof drain cleaning

Also try not and leave the sunroof open while parked under trees or anything that may start to collect up there and wash down.
I mostly keep mine closed. I just like the extra light brought in myself.

So I just installed the garnish and grille on my 2020 ORP yesterday, and am wondering if I correctly installed the garnish or not. Is the bottom of the garnish supposed to be flush with the lower grille, or is it expected that there's a slight 1mm gap between the garnish and the lower grille? The garnish itself is centered left and right, but I can't help but think the adhesive stuck too fast to get it flush across the vertical axis.

Other owners who have installed this ( @TRDORP4Runner ) or already have a pro, do you guys also have a very small gap on the underside of your garnish, or is it flush? As I'm writing this I'm also wondering if I got the top part of the garnish deep enough...

Has anyone tried to remove and reapply the garnish before, or is that a no-go SOL situation?

What is a good way to tell that I installed it properly?

Thanks for your time in advance, I'd hate to think that I borked this expensive piece of plastic.

Here's a few photos from another thread. Hope this helps.

I can't tell if there's a gap between the green and the garnish in that photo. Thanks though.

I have a small gap on the underside, for the top I had to lift a little and push it to get the last 1/16 or so to move.

Finally picked this up and absolutely love this color! Drove it from Vancouver to Seattle to visit a friend before I drove it back to California but got a lot of head turns on the freeway today. Going to enjoy the rig as stock for awhile as I am in no hurry to upgrade the parts. Only upgrade that is necessary is to convert lights to LED other than that, TRDORP is nice as is. A lot of people are hyped up about the army green pro but the red ORP is such a classic look.

Congrats, it’s a nice one!

Red was never my color but I have to admit that it suits.
So... you got a Canadian model?
