    Is there a 5 Gen TRD skid plate with an oil filter access hatch or is that just a feature for pick ups.

    The china TRD copy from Cartrimhome has access. The OEM does not.

    i'm sure it's a lot less expensive to just grab an angle grinder to the stock one these days. LOL

    Another vote for RCI. I have one and it makes oil changes doable without dropping the whole skid. I also installed a Fumoto valve and use their brass nipple connector with a short piece of hose to drain it straight into an old oil jug. Same for the oil filter, use a tool that has a hose that will drain most of the oil into a jug. Also got the MotivX filter removal tool to make life easy.

    Another RCI here. Has both the oil filter and drain plug access. Mine is less than a month old, but so far its good.
