What annoying news to come home too.

I let my sister take my 2005 Toyota 4runner for the weekend while I left town on a business trip.

Absolutely, partznet.com You'd be hard pressed to find stuff any cheaper. They are a Toyota dealer so you are getting Toyota parts.

I think your sisters friend needs a Rochambeau... That's the dumbest thing I've heard.

Yeah Partznet has great prices and pretty quick shipping as well as good customer service.

I doubt Toyota would have done anything even if you were in warranty. I wouldn't think it would be covered to replace those parts.
