I watched YouTube videos for how-to, then ordered a few different brands of pivots hoping one would fit perfectly without needing to drill out the holes. I tried this set first. A few weeks after I watched the videos, when it wasn't near 100 degrees out, and with the truck a/c blasting, I gave it a go. I removed the screw from the glass, applied wd-40, tapped the back pin out downward using a small tap&die hammer and the supplied rod, fit the new pivot in with the ridge facing the vent window, lined the holes up using the rod, and tapped the pin back in from the top. Yay! Seemed deceptively easy. It was. Replacing the other pin was much harder. You don't get the same purchase or resistance from the bar bolted to the cab wall when you are hammering farther out on a moving latch. In hindsight, I could have done the pin on the latch side first, on a bench or table, before doing the back pin - but, I didn't. I winged it. Again, I applied wd-40, tapped the pin out from the latch side, lined the holes up again using the rod, tried to tap the pin in, the last half-inch or so just wouldn't go, so...more wd-40, more gentle hammering...nope! In despair, I finally grabbed the channel lock pliers and squeezed with all my strength (not much) on the top of the pin and bottom of the latch, and after a few repositionings, and tries, heard a lovely zipping sound as I successfully pinched the pin in. Voila! I replaced the screw attaching the latch to the glass, checked the tightness of the closure...all good. Didn't need to bend the latch bar in any to make it latch tighter. Did I do the other side too, you ask? Nope, not til that original plastic pivot breaks. The one I just replaced lasted 22 years. These aluminum replacements will outlast my old truck. Hope this review helps you... :)

The plastic ome ones are not durable for the weather time or mother nature. These are functional and ease of installation. Fit is spot on and the brightness of the sun won't damage giving you a value for money.

Doesn’t come with the pin to hold the window to the arm. That has to be bought separately.

This is my second Tacoma, and the first where the side window latches were broken. I was amazed at how inexpensive the solution is. These are also metal and shouldn't need replacing again.Installation is a bit tricky as you have to remove a dowel pin, most likely with a hammer and punch tool. I found channel lock pliers helped with reinstalling the pin.Functionality is perfect and watching an online video helped with orientation of the new pieces.
