Where did you attempt to buy it from?

Toyota ****ed me on the rack they started to say because it wasn’t sold on my truck originally that they cannot sell it to me but but I can buy a Trd cold air box wtf Toyota maybe it’s time to move on

Did you try to order online or in person ?

2 different dealers and an online company I think that Toyota should not list this as a Trd part if we can’t buy for a Trd truck they are acting like bmw or Benz wtf dude

Did you try pulling a TRD vin from a dealer? Was going to try that method. Dealerships list vin numbers online.

No I feel like I did when some dealers gouged me because I have an e30 m3
And wanted to charge me 4x as much as the same part as a 5 series
So btdt

i expect the gouging from bmw, porsche and audi... but not from toyota :frisky: let's give it some time, i'm sure toyota will be relaxed with there Pro parts one day.

Did you ever successfully order a TRD pro roof rack? I tried using a vin pulled from online, and was still denied. Was told that my dealership would have to personally order it for me. I could buy weapons grade plutonium easier than this.

Yes use a vin from car max or ant online web site tell the dealer you crashed it in your garage that is the only way Toyota will order it

Welp, already tried that. I'll give it one more shot... Do you mind telling me which dealer you used? The one I tried said I needed to go to my nearest dealer for a visual inspection (even though it wasn't a warranty issue?!?) and was wondering how "I even found this part online".

Ask for matt at Prestige Toyota in nj but shipping might be costly

Toyota is doing this with Tacoma’s and their grille. I have a friend who was forced to buy a knock off because Toyota claimed they don’t want lesser models representing their top trim levels unless it’s a legitimate trim. So basically, no polishing turds.

I think they’re trying to maintain the premium image and specs on their top trims so potential buyers recognize the value in spending the extra money. The problem is any sought after part WILL be replicated and sold (for less) so Toyota is just missing out on the money. Look no further than the Chinese knock-Off grille thread here.

Agree If Toyota wants people to spend their money on Toyota it should offer greater distinctions between models instead of water down versions

So Yota is just playing this game with the weird roofrack my ‘19
Pro came with? I put ‘17 Pro Suspension and Wheels on my other halfs ‘17 SR5, nobody asked for a Pro VIN. As a matter of fact they were quite happy to sell it to me. I had them do the install as well. Huge ride improvement. Games....

 

[Decipher]

Yeah, it seems this is a new practice.

Frankly if I could get mine off without damage, the bolts are seriously on with locktite. i'd happily sell this roof rack to someone and not worry about resale. it is hideous not to mention challenging in some parking garages.
