    who knows a good source for finding some rubber parts that go on the hood of our trucks?

    on my 75 I am looking for the round rubber hood adjusters that go on the front clip (the ones with a threaded stem attached). I think my rubber bumpers that flank the sides of the fenders are in ok condition, but might as well replace those too. lastly, the PO never re-installed the rubber strip that goes on the rear of the engine bay against the cowl - I have the rubber piece in decent condition, but all the plastic mounting hardware is snapped off and I have no clue what they looked like.

    i did find the rubber bumpers on eBay, but is this the only place to find stuff like this for our classic hilux's?

    Your local rubber place should be able to do it or if you don't mind getting it shipped there is a place in Australia that can do window rubbers (ect)

    I think Toyota still makes these parts. They're the same as on similar year Celicas.

    I ended up going with an eBay kit. Had 4 adjustable bumper bolts, 4 side rubber cushions for the fenders and a clip for the hood arm.
