Quick question - on the phone with Toyota parts counter

The tail lamps on the first gen 4Runners, are they the same as the pickups of the 85-88 era?

Thanks, the guy is insisting that they are different and that I am trying to order the pickup parts. I cannot convince him that they are actually the same assembly.

well I gave a guy my taillights one time so he could get a truck he bought back home...

They came off my RET 4runner and went on his truck so I hope they're the same... Plugs and all matched up...

The dealer still has these parts??? huh...

Oh ya,

The entire assembly and all of the individual parts are still available. I need the little shade that goes around the back up light. I also need new lenses and new gaskets. All of that is available and way cheaper than an entire assembly. I have looked at various aftermarket lenses, but they do not seem up to Toyota OEM standards.

The trick is finding all of the part numbers I used a Toyota of Norwalk, CA website to get the P/N's off of an exploded view, then ordered them from Toyota of Dallas, TX, as their prices are way cheaper.

toyodiy.com seems to be down right now, I can't get to that site to get P/N's either.
