Front Toyota grill badge

Hi, anyone replaced there front grill Badge, if so how difficult was it.  Mine is missing after a freak accident (bit fell off of a lorry and hit the badge) many thanks

Hi Lee, just be careful around there. I presume your vehicle is the same as other Toyotas in that there is some gubbins behind the Badge, not sure if it is the radar cruise control…. Something anyway.

The radar is behind the front Badge.

As above, make sure the radar unit isn't damaged and be careful what you replace it with as the radar has to "see" through it. Replacements look silly prices. Even eBay used are listed at £50!

As Nigel says, the Badge needs to be transparent to the radar not any Badge will do.  Sadly whatever the cost it’s best to replace with an OEM version.

Thanks all, yes the replacement costs £303,  i still can’t believe it.  Yes the radar is behind the Badge and thankfully it looks ok as that costs £800.  The anti collision system won’t work without the Badge in place either.
