    I just ordered Front & Rear Mudflaps on Ebay from Pentagon Toyota in the U.K. Total price delivered was $144.68 USD. I went ahead and ordered rather than wait for Danny to decide to order. From what I've heard here is that the group purchase will not reduce the cost very much! I'll let everyone know when I receive them!

    Saw the listing in ebay.........the price doesn't include shipping does it? Also, the title says "2009 On" I fear that they'll send 2009 and not 2010, eventhough it is 2010 that is pictured. Keep us posted.

    Price includes shipping. I emailed them & they verified the items are for the 2010.

    There was a long thread about their mud flaps. The European 2009 is the Generation III. Not to worry. If you want proof, you are free to read the 973 page thread on your own.

    Calling them and asking seems logical too.

    Any chance that we will have to drill holes to mount them? I looked briefly last night and did not notice any factory set holes. Drill into plastic is ok but damned if I have to drill into sheet metal.

    Just the rear flaps need one screw. The area effected is plastic.

    Just an update: I paid the dealership in the UK last week for the mudguards, and hope that they can pull together enough to ship to me by the end of the this week. After I receive them and am able to figure out how much it'll cost to ship them I'll set a price and start taking orders.

    Should just be the hydraulic motors you are hearing. They are either closer to the passenger compartment on the 767, or are not insulated as well.

    Just received tracking for the first set of 50 mudguards. They will arrive to me on 2/15. That hopefully means I can put up a product page that night and start shipping them out on 2/16.

    Thanks for your patience!

    You'll have to create three new holes into plastic for each rear flap. I drilled pilot holes for the supplied screws. I believe the fronts use existing holes.

    For the rears, it helps to take off the rear tires.

    I won't know until Monday when I receive them and can package/weight them. I should have a product page up Monday night for ordering.

    Looks like the package has been delayed until Wednesday. Look for the product page Wednesday night!

    Hi Danny,

    Few questions...
    1) Any VERY rough $ est? $50, $100?
    2) Set of 2, front or rear, or 4?
    3) If 2 can we choose just front or rear?
    4) Do we need to drill any holes?

    Thanks in advance,

    Come on it will look too funny with just 2 either front or rear or side. :rolleyes:

    Yes easy drilling into plastic and removal of tires may be needed. Good luck! :)

    The front ones use 2 exsting screws that are removed, and then reinstalled. You also pull out a removable plastic plug, and a new one is in the package (which is a bit longer to account for the thickness of the front mud guards)

    For the rear, you don't need to drill holes, you can just use a phillips head screwdriver and they will thread into the plastic. without taking off the rear tires, you can only get the bottom and top screws in, not the middle one, I think it's fine with just 2 of the 3 screws on the rear mud guards.
