Maybe an unpopular opinion but I love the look of the red/black "non-premium" taillights. Glad they're fully LED. However, when it comes to headlights the premium ones are undoubtedly way nicer! I just wish they weren't so absurdly expensive.
These look great with your silver paint though...
Red would go to the corresponding hot wire on the wiring harness (depending on which AUX switch number you want to use, see below) and black would go to the corresponding ground wire.
I believe AUX1 and AUX2 are handled by the pigtail with the larger connector, and AUX3 and AUX4 are handled...
Oh man I'm sorry to hear that. Years ago I made the mistake of confusing Goof Off and Goo Gone and hazed up a patch of clear coat on my old truck. Goof Off is acetone-based which destroys paint, clear coat, plastic, etc. while Goo Gone is citrus-based and is way gentler.
It doesn't help that...
There are no OEM red emblems or overlays except for the heritage grille “TOYOTA” inserts, which can be matched to paint colors.
For the “TOYOTA” text on the rear hatch, the only options for OEM inlays are:

- MATTE BLACK
PT948-89253-05
- CHROME
PT948-89253-12
- REFLECTIVE BLACK...
No problem :) Unfortunately I haven’t seen any sign of black overlay sets on any Toyota parts catalogs so they may not have them available (yet?)
You might be able to buy the lettering (rather than overlays) itself though, if you wouldn’t be opposed to removing your current badges and using the...
Looks like the only black OEM badge overlay you can get is for the front badge.

For any other colors for the "4Runner" liftgate letters, the only option I know of today is StickerFab's vinyl overlays...
I've heard that typically German cars have the best paint processes, but the fact that Toyota is still using such an outdated process for the new Tacoma is baffling... My understanding is that clear coats have become less durable due to various environmental regulations, but surely there must be...
Tried to get some better photos just now:
I took at look at the other doors and it looks like this is in fact isolated to the rear hatch. I'm sure they'll take care of it as you said, and lol good point about the respray being thicker.
Previously I had a 2021 Tacoma (mfg. Mexico) and a...
I can't say this is the type of first post I wanted to make here, but I figured I should share this in case anyone else has the same issue on their 4Runner and hasn't noticed it yet.
The other day, I had my hand on the edge of the open liftgate and realized that the corner felt way sharper than...
