    I have a Limited with the front camera, I 3d Printed the bracket I need, do I reuse the crews that mount the camera on the limited grill and use them on the new grill? Or do I need to buy the hardware too?

    You use the tiny screws that hold the camera into the mount, I think the larger screws for the mount should work but you might be 1 screw short if I remember correctly. The ones that come off the TRD grille might be too long but you can always add a spacer of shim to tighten them up.

    I was thinking the mount sandwiches the camera against the grill holding it in place.

    You could try that but the camera might not be tight between the mount and grill. It would flop around if that was the case.

    When the camera gets moved to the new mount you will have the tiny screws that you can just reuse.

    swapped the grill. I saw what you were talking about. Makes sense now.

    everything went well but the bumper didn’t seem to fit right under the head lights. It wasn’t bad but seemed not tight so we took the bumper off to double check and it’s in the clips it needs to be in. Forgot to plug in the shutters the second time and drove it out of the garage. Check engine light and brake malfunction error flashing. I plugged it back in and still got those errors. I erased the code and it seems to have removed the check engine and brake malfunction light. Haven’t driven it yet so hopefully that’s all it needed.
