    Anyone have any info if the Tundra Pro garnish ($280ish) will come down in price to the range of the Tacoma Pro garnish ($50 ish)?

    Do you know if you have to re-calibrate the sensor if you sealed or does it just plug and play?

    I've been wondering this as well. I really want a pro grille but cannot justify paying almost as much as the grille itself for a small square piece of plastic. Especially since the Toyota emblem garnish and Tacoma pro garnish are only around $50. Hoping the 2020 pro might fix this overpriced problem.

    Technically any time you adjust or change the sensor position it needs to be recalibrated with the camera to align properly.

    I have had my grill off and on I have no clue how many times and never required recalibration, there are tolerances there and no way it can be exact.

    Taking the senor off the grill and back on is another thing I have done I have no idea how many times and never needed recalibrated. Just like the grill there are tolerances and the radar at the mirror and the sensor have to have built in or things would never work.

    I got my garnish from ares customs for $140 for my pro grille on my 2019. It is a new design he has made. His original version and V2 had some issues as already described in other threads here.

    I have had no issues with mine and have 2000 miles on it so far.

    Ares is at $100 or so,I think.

    OEM copy on ebay is around $139

    I think it took a year or so for the Tacoma ones to hit $40-50 so personally I'd wait

    The dealer put a non Toyota radar shield on your truck??? With all the issues they have had and reprogramming the ECU for the radar correction and making the customer sign papers about their lifted vehicles I did not think for liability purposes Toyota would install a non factory item in front of a safety item

    5000 miles now. Multiple four hour highway trips with all tech turned on. Zero issues. Multiple large south eastern rain and thunder storms, works fine in the rain also.

    Did anybody try the Tacoma sensor cover to tundra ? I’m trying upgrade my 2014 grill to 2019 tundra pro, I need to cover the hole sensor. Probably modified it?
