I got my cover yesterday with harden security bolts. Going to take it with me to work and hopefully get it installed tomorrow if I have time.
It pretty sharp looking and way heavier than I expected. Any tips for the install will be appreciated.

You could consider this for prevention...

@Trial153 mine were pretty easy to install. I did it by myself in under an hour.

I ordered the MillerCAT in steel earlier this week. Installed today with other work by the Toyota dealer.

Service Manager commented that cat theft and subsequent repairs had become such an issue that one of his employees was assigned full time on the work for customers. Backordered parts is a big delay and not uncommon. Local focus by thieves has been Prius and Tundra and Tacoma (4x4s). 4Runners cat thefts are increasing, but parts haven't been a backorder issue yet.

I wish someone made those for my van.

It wouldn't surprise me if my cat was in that photo somewhere.
