Says Option G0 is door sill enhancements and they are charging $129. Has anyone seen this or gotten this? What does it look like?

I think these are what you are referring to. This thread should be helpful on the subject.

I'm very familiar with that thread, but the reason I made this new posting is this is the first time Toyota nationwide is itself selling these sills as an option on "05's. If it is the same product as the EBAY ad, then they are really ripping us off. Has anyone gotten them as an option on an '05 or seen them at a dealership to confirm they are the same as the Ebay link?

It would not surprise me if it were true. Best example I can give.........my floor mats on my window sticker, $130. Dealer list to buy them from the parts department, $70. I have not seen anything about them being an option for 05 in the US, only in Canada. PS Sorry for the misunderstanding. :wink:

First reply on the forum, I have these on my 05 SE V6 Sport, ordered them from the dealership I work for.
All said and done, $60.00, I think they the add a touch of class to the car.
They apply with 3M tape , and go right over the exsiting plastic ones.

Nice markup from $60 to $129. Can you post a picture of them? The plastic ones have ridges so I was wondering how well they stuck. Is it possible for someone to get them for an '04 car?

Slingshot,Have pics, where to post????
They should fit an 04. No prob.
Sticks well, cleaned plastic ones with alcohol pad b4 installing new ones.

Cosmicblue,

Do you know the part number of the sill? I want to call around the local dealerships to see how much they're charging...

by **Jewls** » Tue Nov 30, 2004 9:59 am

Or..........

Cosmic-since you work for a dealer, think you could get us a group buy? Parcel Post shipping with USPS would be real cheap. I tried to get a group buy from a dealer on ebay, but no dice.

I WANT THAT! I WANT THAT! Looks super but I don't want to pay that list price. If we can get a group buy price, then I'll put up a poll to see how many would go in on it.

by **cklinh** » Tue Nov 30, 2004 10:21 am

I'd pay 60 for that

My girlfriend owes me a gift anyways
