Post by grant_day »

I could buy these from Toyota but wondered if anybody has been able to get them cheaper anywhere? the foot long support struts under the rear which dont really do alot but always go rusty,

Part numbers: Y53653-17020 Toyota price £20.84
and: Y53654-17010

and the bolt
Part number: Y90119-10647 Toyota price £1.28

Total price inclusive of VAT £50.48

many Thanks

was a guy making copies of these on ebay a while ago i think for £10, but yes thats what thay cost sadly and due to poor design will always rust i want to have a go at making a solid version. :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft:
she's all comming together nicely now after a fair bit of cash spent, not bad for just an n/a now for some body kit i think.
