    This code no longer works, as I tried with a brand new Toyota account. How was this code generated and by who?

    Not sure if they actually have it in stock, most of this stuff has been on national backorder, I’d try to call them and verify first before purchasing online. But the part # is there at least if that’s the style you’re looking for.

    https://www.sparksparts.com/oem-parts/toyota-trd-sport-grille-040-super-white-531010c030a0?

    Edit: If you also need the emblem that goes with that style grille let me know. I ended up going a different route and I have one in my garage that I’m not using. I’ll send it to you for free just as @Dawoofles did for me. He told me to pay it forward if another member could use it.

    Not an oil debate. Just a data point.
    Both NAPA Platinum Oil Filter
    First analysis was 0w-20 - stage 1 supercharged
    Second was 5w-30 - stage 3 supercharged
    Both Pennzoil Ultra Platinum - could not tell any difference in engine sound with the 5w-30 (some say it runs quieter) but I do like the thicker oil due to how I abuse the truck. Will continue to stick to 3,000 - 3,500 oil changes either way, overkill but peace of mind. Also will be sending in a sample every 15k miles just to check. 5w-30 from here on out. Have a great thanksgiving everyone.

    I couldn't tell much difference switching to heavier oil...except the price was much cheaper.

    I switched my '08 and my '21 to 5w-30 about the same time. They both noisy AF at idle.

    I'll stay with the 5w-30, since it's the same as my 1 st gen Tacomas run.

    Toyota created the code.
    The discount code was meant for new owners of the Toyota GR Celica sports car to purchase race helmets performance equipment, whatever.
    Imagine it was just lucky non GR owners were able to use it before.
    It worked for a while but seems Toyota closed the door.
    The current 25% off black friday deal plus an additional "dealer discount" (not sure what this is but shows at checkout and on invoice) plus free shipping is as good as it gets.
    I placed 3 orders but haven't done the math to calculate what the additional dealer discount % amounts to.

    Any chance you can drop a link, please? The one I'm finding when searching online is 350 lbs. The sub 200 lb version would be extremely enticing

    Edit: NVM. I should have just read on a bit lol. Thanks!

    O SNAP. No, this is for the Setrab 20. If you have the 15 it won't work. Exchange it while you still have time if you got it from Amazon

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TO66N2K?th=1

    The 20 is taller so 15 won't work with this bracket for sure.

    The only published difference in “mounting-relevant” footprint is the vertical stack height: 4.53″ vs 6.06″ — meaning the 20-row occupies ~1.5″ more vertical space.

    Perhaps Setrab may be able to exchange it for you, you never know, call and ask :)

    I am sure if you give @pman9003 the measurements he can adapt the V4 for a 15 Setrab. He will need to move the holes down or enough to fit the 1.5" hight difference? Should be easy as he got the design file. I would rather go that experimenting path which will benefit the entire community, so we can have brackets for a Setrab 20 but also a Setrab 15 :)

    I'm sure the dimensions would change slightly with the setrab mounting brackets are on the cooler.

    Actually I was WRONG. The 1.5" difference is not the hight of the bracket but rather the width. :crazy:

    Here are the measurements side by side for all Setrab versions

    Here is an elegant solution for you partner :) Send the V4 bracket in for manufactory and then just redrill four new holes (2 top, 2 bottom) --> red spots , by moving them inside by 38mm, or put the radiator on top of the bracket, secure the left bolts first and then mark the right holes for drilling. Four holes to drill, no big deal and use any normal HSS drill bit for this steel --> CRS A36/1008 Mild Steel (.135")

    See my pictures with suggested new holes placement. And everything else should work the same :)

    Hey @pman9003 down the road you can make this bracket universal, for the Setrab 20 but also for the Setrab 15, by adding 4 more holes to the left of the right side ones with a distance of 38mm :) Win Win for both radiators size :) Hight is the same so nothing to modify there.

    Thank you. One more spoon fed thing, do you have a link or the size for the hardware to bolt the bracket to the truck and the cooler to the bracket?
