New grille... which emblem?

I got a new grille but I can't seem to find the right emblem to go along with the grille.

I've checked ebay but most are for camry's also I've yet to find one that has a mounting pin at the bottom or one that looks to fit that weird oval in the middle.

I'm pretty sure toyota has slightly changed the oval through out the years so I want to make sure I purchase the right one.



Does anyone know where to buy one for a reasonable price that will fit?
Thanks.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a 2wd grille that should fit the 2nd and 3rd gen pickups? Or is it for only 3rd gen pickups? Shoot I get confused on these years.

But anyways it's for a 92.

if you know anyone who works in a body shop, they might give you one
my uncle works in a body shop and they all stash logos from totals and stuff. too bad its a ford place and no yotas
they should be able to order you one if they dont have them stashed

I'd put something other than the factory Toyota cowboy hat emblem there, but that's just me



don't know what I'd put though... but I'd find something...


maybe an oval-shaped smiley face or something, lol

I like the ideas but I think I'll stick with the weird oval thing lol, it'll give me a good excuse to hit the road and go to the dealership.
