@Cranberry can you please update the initial post — I think PVM was never an option on the pro/th/orp, they all have MTM which seems to include all the views (including top down pano) that PVM has, plus additional views.
My apologies for causing the confusion.
I was under the impression that the TRD is 1/4 aluminum and the trailhunter/LC plates are 3/32 steel. The trailhunter is explicitly marked as steel on the website, and I’m gambling that the LC is the same based on the stamping and other comments on the forum.
Thanks for the tip, much appreciated!
I ended up ordering not only the lights but also the 3 skids. LC front, transmission, and rear came out to $723 after tax, with free shipping. I think the LC front was like $10 more than trainhunter… but just felt wrong to put trainhunter branded stuff on...
I think the way Toyota presents the options is just a little confusing.
My new understanding is that MTM is really PVM + some additional features. Around 1:30 in this video, it says you access MTM from the PVM menu:

With free nation wide shipping, does anyone know of a cheaper dealer?
My 25 ORP has the 360 pano view, looks like they took that off of all trims except the limited and platinum for 2026.
Wish I had a trailer break, threaded frame, sound dampening…. But wouldn’t trade that for the 360 pano view.
I have an ORP, and was considering SR5 vs OR vs ORP. The diff between SR5 and OR is ~6k, for which you get:
No sliders
“Skid plates” are high density plastic (feels like thin metal) but are not actually metal
Bilstein shocks
Rear locker
“All terrain” tires (they are “on-road all terrain” tires...
I bought the dongar pro in November and a garmin mini 3. I have the dongar to the right of the pillar, and the garmin sort of in front of my rear view mirror — completely out of my field of view and I often forget it’s there and recording.
Still haven’t tested to make sure the singer pro and...
