    I've been looking for a hood insulator for my 13 RW, but cant find anything except the 2.5 Gens part #: 53341-0C021

    link: 53341-0C021 - Toyota Parts Deal

    Wondering if any of you guys have tested if this fits the 2nd Gens hood? Any other options are greatly appreciated!

    With the sale and free shipping. That's going to be like what, 130 to your door? I'd vote to try it if you are wanting one. Even if its not perfect, I'm sure it fit enough to be secure and if you need to trim or stuff any edges, I'm sure that wouldn't be too hard to do.
