Trouble finding a WT Bug Deflector

[77Bronc]

I called Weathertech today about a bug deflector for a '15 4Runner and they don't make one. I thought for sure I read here about people purchasing one for a 2015. Now I am new the 4Runners, so I do not know the details about model year changes, like would a 2014 fit?

I searched the forum, but may have missed something.

In addition I also tried to get model numbers for WT mats and cargo mats, but the lady on the other end was not too friendly, especially when I said I was purchasing on Amazon, but what the hey, I am purchasing their product.

Any help would be great...

Product numbers for Digital Fit mats are at the following link:

2015 Toyota 4Runner | WeatherTech FloorLiner custom fit car floor protection from mud, water, sand and salt. | WeatherTech.com

As far as I can tell, the deflector is only available for 10-13. Check ARB or Toyota.

It's the same hood from the 2010 all the way up. It's what is on my '14.

Yup all the same for 2010-2015.

The ones from 'Toyota' and 'Vent-Shade' seem to fit very well; I'm using their window and moon-roof vents and have had NO PROBLEMS at all,

Just a suggestion! Rgds

Thanks guys... Are the AVs and Toyota contact free? I can't see why WT is not listing the 10-13s as available for the 15s?

Thanks,

I called back yesterday and basically told her 4Runner owners on the Internet are installing WT deflectors on 2015 models.

She basically had no answer, when I said I will have to purchase another manufacturers brand, she offered no help. Did say the deflectors are outsourced and made by another vendor, would not tell me who.

Got an AVS and very happy with it. Doesn't touch the hood like the OEM one does and hook shuts perfectly. Mounts under hood in 6 preexisting holes.. Took 5 mins to install. Oh and the AVS sticker on it comes right off in a high pressure car wash!

Welcome to the internet. A lot of companies just can't keep up with their online catalogs as model years cosmetics change. And a lot of customer service reps truly have no clue what does or does not fit what vehicle if they can't pull up a part number for that model on their computer. They are probably trained to err on the side of caution to reduce the costs of restocking returns. It is how they handle their ignorance that I listen for as far as possible future business goes.

I ran into the same thing after I bought my 14 and was looking for a leveling kit. It's what brought me to this forum. I was completely ignorant of what year groups constituted what generations of 4Runner were out there.
