Hi Granth,
Not too sure what parts you've been trying to order (or from where). As you know a great deal of 5'th gen 4Runner parts are interchangeable/the same. Sometimes the problem is just a matter of website part listings/fitment guides just being outdated; I'll give an example. I was buying an aftermarket alternator from a pretty well known (creditable) company. Looking at their on-line catalog, I chose the alternator model that I wanted to purchase, at which time I was directed to the fitment guide. I scanned the chart (Year, make, model) for my 2012 4Runner, but the guide only went up to 2009 (4'th gen) even though the Tacoma (having similar engine layout) went all the way up to 2012.
I picked up the phone and called the number listed in their "Contact us" section of the help menu, spoke to a csr and asked about the unit that I wanted to buy. He said that they absolutely have the alternator that I wanted that fits my 2012 4runner. He was also surprised that their fitment guide had been overlooked and didn't include the fifth generation 4Runners and offered that their website catalog would soon be updated. Case-and-point... don't assume that all the data in a website's fitment chart is always current; make a call as well! Rgds

I've used Toyota Motor Parts - Genuine OEM Parts at Low Prices many times. Happy with them.
I like their diagrams that I can look at and see what part I need so there is no guessing involved. Their diagrams seem detailed and not a water downed version.
Some toyota part websites have a water downed version and I cannot see all the parts I need.

I've used concelliparts , citytoyota parts, there are tons rockauto . Just best to bounce around & check & compare . Just ordered from city , they sometimes slow you down by asking for vin for fitment issues but F that .
