    I'm about to receive a 2022 Tacoma Limited in army green. I would like to do away with the chrome mirror covers. My understanding is that the chrome mirror covers come off and can be replaced with pre-painted army green covers that I can purchase.

    Is this true? If so, can anyone direct me where I can purchase them for a good price?

    Thanks!

    Chrome? I thought the covers were the body cover. My 2021 Limited is.
    But to answer your question, I've took mine off to replace the turn signal lights with some sequential lights. They snap off using a plastic pry tool.

    Yours aren’t chrome because you have a Nightshade.

    Also, they can be pulled off using just your hands. No tools needed.

    Pulled the chrome and replaced with body color covers, one of the best visual mods I've done.

    Pulled my chrome mirror caps off 10 minutes after the truck pulled into our garage. Also changed the chrome door handles with body color ones.
