Tacoma Limited : Blackout Progress

[Baltimore]

Your truck looks great! I just bought a '24 limited and am looking to do the same thing. I bought the front bumper lower panel to replace the chrome but the replacement I received doesn't have the holes for the park sensors. There were only three part numbers on the diagram: chrome with fog lights, black with fog lights, black without fog lights. I bought the black with fog lights. Did you have to drill the holes yourself? Also, did you reuse the glued on sensor brackets or order new ones? Thanks! @Gurvy522

No. Well.. you could. You need upper bumper variant #5 (53931-AK050) if you want black with fog with sensor.
You will also need two sensor mounts that stick to the backside. The black ringed ones are part number 89348-04010-C.

The sensor clips are 3M tape, not reusable.

I made the error the first time of ordering variant #1 based on posts and (incorrect) eBay listings. Had to eat the cost to rebuy the correct one.

Side note:
Rave's camera bracket is actually outside of system tolerance for Toyota. While it can be adjusted to +162 to get visual alignment, if one has to run a recalibration, it will fail and disable all your 360 degree cameras and steering lines.
(Yes, I know others have said +165, but +162 is what the head tech at the dealership ended up)

Rave is playing radio silence on the problem they created.

It's now going to cost me $$$ of an estimated half day of shop time to correct and I was given two options: either restore the original grille and camera mount to recalibrate properly... OR... Remount the camera upside down as "grille variant 2" expects and then recalibrate.

Once the calibration fails, you are left with your front and rear tailgate cameras only with no guidance features.

Will post more when the saga is over

Thank you! That one is on backorder everywhere right now so I may drill in the interim. There is a template etched on the backside of the one I ordered, so that will help with location.
