Where can I find Roof Rack Caps?

Anyone have a source on getting the plastic silver corner pieces for an 03' 4Runner? I busted the left rear (driver's side) on my 03 Sport and I haven't had much luck finding anything out there.

I got a set of front and a set of rear for a sport edition rack for $18.95 each set. I was told the caps for the limited are higher but I am not sure.

Are yours silver (p/n 63493-35011)? They're $61 on the site you listed as well as Toyota of Dallas. Would be great to get them for $18.95.
 
Not to hijack the thread, but I noticed my passenger side front cap is missing my 06 Sports Edition. I was able to track down the part but am confused on how to attach it back on. Is it a pressure fit?
 
Dealer is probably your best bet. I was able to get one side (front and back) for $40.

Yes, they are just a pressure fit. I just had to replace my front one as well - I put a zip-tie around it so it doesn't fly off again. If you want a cleaner look maybe some adhesive in the holes, but only if you really don't want to unbolt your rack anytime soon.

The ones I bought for $18 are for the Sport rack. They are different from the Limited rack. I dont know why the limited model cost so much more. The Sport ones seem like they are some kind of ABS material and the Limited ones are a plastic material.


When I replaced mine, I used some RTV in the bolt holes and around the base of the caps to seal the bolt holes from water and to help hold the caps in place. RTVcan be scraped off if I need to remove the bolts.

Do you have a newer sport with the round bars? I have an 03' Sport and the Racks are identical to the Limited model from what I can tell. Looking up the part it's the same number too.
 
I bought a Sport model rack from a 2006, which are the round style. The original one I had is like you said, the Limited model.
 
I've broken 2 of these darn things while strapping stuff to the roof. They are perfectly positioned to grab as you lower yourself down but not strong enough to support any type of weight. They just shatter in your hand. The only place I found that had the part was the dealer and they charged me $75 each. I'm not replacing them anymore and just saving for a real roof rack not made of plastic.
