    Hello, On a 2018 Tacoma tailgate, what’s the Star screw size screwdriver do I use? I’m installing a Tailgate rug and I need to remove screws on the top of the tailgate. Thanks!

    You'll need a T30 Torx bit. Best to buy a set of them, since there are other Torx bolts of different sizes on the truck.

    I want to put similar bolt on one of them as the bed floor rear tie-down points. Does anyone know if they are interchangeable or the bolt sizing and length?
