ECOTRIC 4Pcs Black Roof Rack Rail End Bar Cover Cap Shell Protection Replace for 2003-2009 4Runner SW4 N210

Replaced weathered shell caps - Great fit, looks like a new roof rack after replacing all 4 caps.

Fit perfectly, instillation was super easy as well. Worth every penny, and thankfully it’s a cheap and easy replacement for a seemingly weak piece from the factory.

I grabbed a roof rack corner when climbing down from the running board while washing my 2005 4Runner. I took a bad step and put too much force on the corner trim. It shattered. It had been baking in the sun for 15 years. It wasn't a huge loss because there was some chemical over spray on these corner trim pieces that stained the originals, so they needed to be replaced. I pulled off the remaining plastic bits from the original trim piece. It took a minute to play spatial relations games to see which of the four trim pieces went where. The trick is to align the trim piece properly so the four tiny tabs are trying to engage, then apply gradually more energetic vertical taps with a balled fist and the new corner trim will snap into place. To match, they'll all need to be replaced, but by the time one breaks they're probably all brittle or weathered. There is no saving these trim pieces once they're installed. All four of the originals broke as I was trying to remove them. The new corner trim pieces have been on more than a month and they're apparently as secure as the original parts. The injection molding isn't quite as nice as the original Toyota parts, but the stealership would probably want hundreds of dollars for these four trim pieces. I was forced to pay $48 for a tiny strip of rubber window seal for the cargo hatch window to keep rain from ruining the $300+ door latch actuator, so it's worth avoiding the stealership when we can.

These fit my 2009 4Runner SR5 seamlessly. They’re not as thick or rigid as the OEM equivalent, but they’re a fraction of the price. They fit snug, same as the originals. Make sure all 4 tabs click into place. The last one I put on felt loose and required an extra smack on top to seat properly. I don’t know if I’d trust them in a car wash, but I can’t imagine them flying off on the highway. Don’t bother trying to salvage the old ones. Each one busted into pieces when I popped them off.

Easy to install on my 4Runner. Just snap in. Seems like good quality. However, one cap flew away after a month and a half. I ordered another set. Will use crazy glue this time
