    Hey all,

    Apologies if this has already been asked (searched & did not see much) but how common/easy is it for the cats on 4Runners to get stolen? I know for the Tundras & Priuses, it's much more common but wasn't sure about the 4Runners.

    Just trying to plan ahead to see if I need to look into a cat plate for the incoming 4Runner. Thanks!

    Super easy for thieves to steal the cat on a 4runner. If lifted, even easier. Unless you have full body armor underneath, it is exposed. And even with full armor, I think it might still be kind of easy access unless you have a specific protection for the cat. Basically, all a cat thief has to say is "Here kitty kitty" and it's a done deal.

    Are there any specific cat plates people are running on here?
