OEM-Mud Guards

[Cariboo Ryan]

just installed the new OEM Mud Guards $125 shipped from sparksparts.com

Do you have the installation instructions? Curious if you had to drill sheet metal or if they use existing holes.

Super easy and yes no drilling uses existing holes.

Those look nice, thanks for sharing

Just installed these on mine. Should help a bit with stuff flying up off the tires. I’ve got some running boards on the way that’ll provide some extra protection as well. I liked the look of these mudguards better than the aftermarket options.

Reposting the part number in case someone missed it from one of OPs prior posts.

Those are nice!! Were they a no drill and looks like they fit perfect. Don't remember seeing those on the Toyota site. Wish I could have waited...

No drilling. There were three screws to remove on each side in the front and those were used to install the front mudguards. The kit came with 4 screws for each side in the rear. There are already pre-drilled locations for the install, so it's literally just lining it up and putting the screws in. Super easy and the fitment is great. You can find them online, but the dealership that I bought my truck from couldn't find any mudguards in their system.

I had the same problem, even waited for a couple of months and they said they still couldn't get any.

That is when I just went to Amazon and found a nice set for 1/3 of what they wanted, plus they were larger which I liked better.

Yours being OEM and have the Tacoma name on the back I like better. Just not better enough to buy another set. Lol

Mud flaps alone will not stop the rock chips. Take a string or long straight edge and place it behind the front tire at ground level. Now have someone stretch the string until it is touching the front of the rear fender flair. The point is that rocks fly under the flap and hit the rear panel.

If you want zero rock chips you need wide running boards AND good mud flaps.

What mud flaps and wheels are you running on your Tacoma? Thanks

Thanks for the info, the "Canadian" set fits perfectly. Dead easy installation and great coverage.
