OEM rain gutter? (1 Viewer)

[81fj40]

Perusing through the usual parts suppliers and came across this. Is this really an OEM rain gutter for $115??

Interesting.... can it fit on the 77-80 model?

Don't see anything that says anything about it being OEM.

A word of caution about TPD: On occasion, they have been known to show availability, only after payment and a prolonged wait do you then learn that it is NLA.

This is true of the Canadian version as well

I see it now.

It took them 2 months to ship 8 oem soft top tie down fasteners to me.

dang, should have checked the shipping! I've ordered from TPD a couple times, and it's been pretty seamless. Although, I have noticed their shipping costs are relatively high. I wonder if one could order through their local Toyota parts dealership, since it seems to be a toyota part, circumvent the high shipping. Anyway, was surprised to see it available, might be worth checking out.

This part is not available. No one is getting this part.

Prices at different Toyota dealers can be surprisingly different. I’ve had nothing but good experiences from Longo Toyota here in Southern California. They seem to have competitive prices and ship anywhere. Plus they always pick up the phone for questions, etc.
I’m sure there are other good dealers people use as well.

This has been my experience with them. I won't waste the time looking on that site after multiple tries with them showing parts in stock/ available.

I’m sure it would be doable. I put a ‘77 gutter on my ‘74, and now have an ‘81 hardtop on it. I’ve seen no difference in the gutters. I’m sure there are no differences that couldn’t easily be overcome… if there are any.

If I could get one for that price, I’d buy one and store it in my garage for a rainy day. It’s not a matter of if I’ll need to repair/replace my gutter… it’s when.

Although for the shipping price, I’ll just patch mine… that’s nuts.

For anyone looking for a gutter, the kit from CCOT is actually pretty nice and complete. I'm happy with it, and I'd recommend it.

^^^ This is my option too
