Max Headroom Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Just replaced the boot rubbers on the car, if you do it be very very careful taking the screws out. If you knacker them its a pig of a job to get them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's big Seriously, though, as well as changing the boot rubber design Toyota also changed the screws to hex head so you can use a standard socket to get them out later on. I can post up the part numbers is anyone is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
