Hey,
So i need to replace my '94 bumper. Thought i'd go to a 96+. I read the several posts here saying it was bolt on and fits the exact same as the 94/95 just the turn signals wont fit and you have to do some wiring for the fogs. No problem. I phone up toyota and they say they are 100% sure the 96-99 bumper will not fit the 94. Are they just not well educated or is there something different about the Canadian reinforcement bar behind the bumper that makes them fit different? The shop is reluctant to order me a 96+ bumper because of this. |

the canadian bumpers and reinforcement bars are the same. the dealers are just covering their ass from potential headaches by saying 96+ bumpers don't fit. also, you'll end up paying 2 to 3 times more by buying from a local canadian dealer than buying from 1sttoyotaparts.com.
