I know, off-road vehicle, but does not mean I can't baby her as much as possible. She deserves the best.

This was the part number I ordered, PT924-89250. Just lucked out the color goes well with the TH interior. Not sure that they come in other colors.

Toyota sale still going on? i thought it expired?

So mine came with these panels installed at the port, but I don't get it... doesn't this just put one part that could get scuffed up on top of another part that could get scuffed up? Mine don't look to be any more scuff resistant than the door itself.

I mean, it looks nice, breaking up the door design with more of a two tone design, but I don't see the functional benefit.

I thought the same, but I got two sets of discounts at checkout. Including free shipping.

Yeah, I guess the idea is the protector is cheaper to replace than the door panel itself.

I got them as a PIO on mine. The first thing that went. IMO much cleaner look without them. Also, the edges are not sealed, so it would inevitably collect debris behind them.

I thought nobody would want them so I threw them out. Should have offered them for sale here.

What is the front skid plate hardware kit? bolts to install?

Were they hard to remove? Do you just pull until the sticker stops sticking?

Yeah, 6 new bolts. Port/factory was kind enough to slightly strip my front two bolts. I tapped them but grabbed new bolts to have on hand too.

I'd hit it with a hair dryer first, but yes, should be that easy.

I'll see how long they last. You make a good point about the edges. The ones on my Outback were rubber, so a bit more protection.

They were mounted with narrow double sided tape. I did not bother warming it up. Just pulled on it carefully from one side and they popped off. It would be possible to loop and pull a piece of thin braided string behind the panels to help with the removal.
The hardest part was to clean up the leftover snots of the double sided tape.
