Mud flap removal - quick to remove and reinstall?

[thewizardoforange]

Can anyone tell me if the Toyota mud flaps are quick to remove and reinstall? I'm awaiting delivery of a TRD Pro and I'm trying to decide on whether to get them or not. I'd like to have the added protection they provide for routine driving, but I'd also like to be able to take them off before entering rock gardens.

Not necessarily a quick process. Unlike prior gen’s that use the same mounting holes and hardware, to install the mudflaps you need to drill two new holes and use different mounting hardware. Would be a pain in the ass to swap on and off.

Yeah, 3 screws and a push pin to remove on each front. 4 screws on the rears. You may need a right angle Phillips screwdriver to get the rear liner screws off and on unless you take the wheels off. I just installed these on my TRD Sport this week.

Not technically difficult but time consuming. It took me 45 minutes to install them. Here are the instructions in case it helps answer your question. https://toyotaparts.sparkstoyota.com/install/PK389-35S00-TPinst.pdf

I have a somewhat similar question. My TRD off road premium came with oem flaps that I am sure will get ripped off on rocky trails. I just want to remove them. Is that possible without there being a hole in the wheel well or will I have to buy filler plates? Also If anyone can link me a removal video for 2025 oem flaps I would appreciate it.
Thanks

My 2025 TRD Pro came with the mud flaps. I have since had to trim them by or my tires (only the front ones)
