    Hi!
    I'm new in here and new lucky owner of Tundra. bought myself Tundra Crewmax 2017, salvage from copart. Got scammed because it was marked as side damage but in reality it was damage also in front, very bad damage and i have to reconstruct all front part of vehicle until motor. It's ok, i'm already ready for this. Anyway we don't have a lot of these cars here in EU to choose from.
    The problem is: vehicle is not registered in EU, i can not register it because it's not repaired. So local Toyota people can not search for parts because VIN code is not showing anything in their program. We see details by VIN code in US or in other countries, but in some parts there different variations of parts for the same part number. for example oil pump, by 1part number there are 4variants to choose from. I tried through techinfo/toyota, but seems that is completely useless, can not find even part numbers there, only oil and brake service info. So how do you choose right details?
    Maybe you can estimate the cost of all details needed for repair if i say that i have to change everything in front of motor up to the grill. hood, wings and decorative plastic are ok (they were made for "picture" =D ). I have 1 radiator, but as i understand there must be 2 of them and normal propeller.
    Thanks for answers

    You could put your Vin in to Toyotapartsdeal.com and that would tell you which exact part number you need and if there are any new variants you need instead.

    Thank You. The problem in here also for example with engine oil pump parts: "select vehicle options to narrow down result". Seems to me that it is already narrowed when i put a vin code:
    https://www.toyotapartsdeal.com/Pag...goryUrl=engine-oil-pump&Diagram=&PartNumbers=
    Or should i think that if it shows that both details suit my car so i can buy any of them and it will be ok anyway?
