    There are changes coming to these two types of grilles. Toyota has changed the emblem and the way it mounts to the grille. This will affect everyone with a 2018-19 Tundra who wants one of these grilles. Your emblem will no longer swap over to them. Also, to the guys with a 2014-17 model who wants a Platinum/Sport grille, the Land Cruiser emblem that I found will work, will no longer fit.

    The new grille part numbers will now be 53101-0C031-XX for the Sport (x's being color codes) and 53101-0C041-XX for the Platinum. The old part numbers were 53101-0C030-XX and 53101-0C040-XX. They will require a new emblem, part number 90975-02159, and a screw 90167-50063.

    This will also be the case even if you're simply replacing your stock grille if it was damaged. You will have to order the new part number, along with the emblem and screw. The grille itself is about $80 more than the old part number, and the emblem is currently $287.

    Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I'll be updating the ultimate thread as well.

    Hi Roman. I'm about to order the hood bulge and platinum grille assembly (along with several other items:)) for my silver sky 2020 SR5/XSP. I went to use the part numbers you listed on your complete parts Threads but I noticed in another unrelated Thread that someone had an issue swapping out the 2019? emblem into the new 2020 grille I didn't see it addressed anywhere else but here.

    This is the grille you listed from your other Thread:

    https://parts.toyotaofcoolsprings.c...assembly-silver-sky-metallic-1d6-531010c040b0

    As you wrote above, I don't think I can use my 2020 emblem in that grille. I tried finding the one you list above: 53101-0C041 (and color code?) on your site but I can't locate it. Can you send me the correct grille part number for the platinum silver sky?

    Also I just ordered the power tailgate lock yesterday. I bought my tundra last week and I checked with my dealer who didn't even know it existed. After checking more, he found it and wanted a lot more money for it. He also said the part was discontinued but I ordered it from you with no problem . Have you heard about it being discontinued?

    Thanks

    Roman, if I have a 2019 1794 edition with the chrome and want to switch the grill to a honeycomb grill, surround(white) and bulge(white) will the platinum grill work with my existing emblem? If not is there a honeycomb grill that my current emblem with tss will fit. Again I'm looking to change from chrome to white?

    This is just my opinion, but Toyota obviously has noticed the trend of switching parts on vehicles. Now they are just going scorched earth. I paid 5 dollars a piece for some common use trim clips the other day. Now i have to pay this for a fucking emblem to complete my already $500 hood bulge and grill swap? eat a bag of dicks Toyota.

    @Roman-please kindly send this to corporate for me.

    I got lucky, I ordered 53101-0C040-B1 Platinum Grille Assembly - Magnetic Gray (1G3) from you. Can you tell me what the land cruiser emblem is that will fit this grill?

    Oh I get it and I'm sure they are. It was like something I was reading about with steep bumpers, how the Toyota stuff is so much more expensive than other makes. Like they are playing in on the fan boy stuff.

    I bought all my stuff and then found out after the fact.
    I found one on Ebay for 120 bux shipped.
    It would have cost me that to return my parts to Roman.

    Can you swap a 2017 grill for a 2019 grill?

    Not sure what you mean ? I just bought the grill.... It's for different years .... It said if you had 2018 and up the emblem would fit and it doesn't..... I contacted the company and they said .... Oh they must have changed it ... Because it should work ..... I sure don't see how it can .

    So, the emblem I just ordered from you won't work ( 75301-60020 ) ..... If not , could I glue the original one into that grille... Not that I want to do that. But, I can't spend that kind on money on just a emblem ...?

    If you have the 0C040, that is supposed to be the older style Platinum grille which will accept the older style emblem and the Land Cruiser emblem. The 0C041 is the new design and will only work with the newer style emblem.

    Older style emblem, no problem. Land Cruiser emblem, maybe. I don't have any definitive answers on the Land Cruiser emblem, but it was not designed for TSS, so I doubt it will work.
