It would seem that this Company is prepared to produce parts no longer manufactured by Toyota and ask for interested individuals to complete an on line application.
As
@Bugster_MR2 suggests a joint approach together with Spyderchat could produce a higher volume of requests, with logically a better hope of success.
But, maybe better if that was a coordinated request.
Maybe a starting could be mr2roc.org asking (Active ?) Members their needs and if there is a consensus for some items approach Spyderchat to do a similar survey.
Then a joint application/ each Club, or individual Members request those particular items only. This would give the Manufacture a higher number than piecemeal individual applications.
Just a thought for today!
