The Hilux is the most common pickup platform in the markets we serve, and the front end is where most of the money is: headlamps, grilles, bumpers, fenders, bonnets and the small trim that holds them together. It is also the platform where the most wrong parts get ordered, because three different front ends are all sold as “Hilux” and the model years overlap heavily.
This guide separates Vigo, Revo and Rocco, shows what changes across the generations, and lists the parts a distributor or body shop should keep together on one order.
Three front ends, not one model
| Nameplate | Years (typical) | What it is | Parts consequence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vigo | 2004–2015 | The previous generation, sold in two sub-generations (approximately 2004–2008 and 2012–2015) | Front-end parts do not fit a Revo; the two Vigo sub-generations also differ |
| Revo | 2016–2022 | The AN120/AN130 generation, facelifted around 2020 | 2016–2019 and 2020–2022 front ends differ; lamps and grilles are generation-specific |
| Rocco | 2019–2020+ | A market-specific front-end styling variant of the Revo era | Treat it as its own front end — confirm by photo and VIN before ordering |
“Rocco” is not a trim package you can safely assume from a year. Depending on the market it is used for a specific front-end design built around the same cab and chassis. A Revo bumper or grille can be close enough to look right in a photo and still leave gaps at the lamp surround. Ask for the VIN and two photos — front three-quarter and the front panel with the bonnet open.
What the front end is made of
A complete front-end repair is rarely one part. The list below is the order we see most often from body shops:
- Headlamps — assembly, with the DRL and indicator built in on most Revo trims.
- Front grille — the part that changes most visibly across facelifts and trims.
- Front bumper and lower valance — often supplied primed, with fog-lamp cut-outs and sensor holes to confirm.
- Fenders — steel repair panels on the collision side; plastic flares on the styling side.
- Bonnet and hinges — impact repairs, usually with the latch and release cable.
- Fog lamps and covers — small, high-margin, frequently broken in parking incidents.
- Mirror covers and mirrors — not strictly front end, but ordered with the same repair.
- Clips, brackets and seals — the parts that turn a two-day repair into a two-week one when missing.
If you are quoting a complete front end, quote it as a kit with the clip and bracket lines included. The pickup collision repair checklist has the full list by area.
What differs between Revo pre-facelift and facelift
The 2016–2019 and 2020–2022 Revo share the cab, chassis and doors but not the face. In practice:
- The headlamp changed shape and internal design; the facelift lamp has a different mounting pattern at the inner edge.
- The grille changed profile and the trim colours changed with it. A grille that fits one year will not sit flush on the other.
- The front bumper changed its upper line and fog-lamp openings. Sensor and camera openings also vary by trim.
- The fender is the same repair part in most cases, but the flare and wheel-arch trim differ by trim level.
If a listing says “Hilux Revo 2016–2022”, treat it as two SKUs, not one. The fitment verification guide explains how to confirm from a photo when the buyer does not know the year.
The trim traps
Four fitment traps account for most Revo returns:
- TRD, Rocco and sport trims change grille and bumper detail. Standard parts fit, but the customer expecting the sport look will reject them.
- 4×2 versus 4×4 can change bumper height and arch trim on some markets. Ask which drive configuration the vehicle is.
- LHD versus RHD. Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Australia are RHD; the Philippines and Vietnam are LHD. Lamps are handed and the beam pattern is asymmetric.
- Single cab, extra cab and double cab. Door and side parts differ; front-end parts are mostly shared, but the flare kits are not.
A 30-second check on the buyer’s part list — generation, drive, market and trim — prevents a container-level error. Our team asks these four questions on every Revo order, and it is why we can quote a mixed front-end kit in one reply.
What the catalogue covers
The current range for the Revo generation includes the parts that move fastest:
- LED headlight for the Revo facelift — plug-and-play with integrated DRL and a smoked-chrome bezel option; the catalogue band starts around $86 per pair.
- LED tail light for Revo 2016–2022 — smoked or clear lens with a sequential indicator, around $62 per pair.
- Rear step bumper for the Revo — black or chrome, with optional sensor holes.
- Steel hood for the Revo — pressed steel, E-coat primed, hinges optional.
- Revo body kit — side skirts, flares and lips, packed for one-truck retail.
- Mirror cover with sequential indicator — a fast-moving accessory line.
- Fog lamp kit for the Vigo — the older generation still has a large fleet base in Africa and Southeast Asia.
Prices above are indicative catalogue bands, not quotations; the quote confirms the correct SKU, quantity and market specification. For the full Vigo/Revo/Rocco range, start from the Toyota vehicle pages, and if you need a part that is not listed, send the OEM number rather than a description.
Approvals and market fit
Lighting is the regulated part of the front end in most markets. Selected lamp families carry E-MARK documentation approval with the scope available on request; some Gulf and Southeast Asian markets also require importer-side conformity documents that a factory cannot issue in your name. The E-MARK vs DOT vs CCC guide explains which scheme applies to which market, and your broker should confirm the current requirement before you book production.
For body panels the question is less about certification and more about paint and fit: check E-coat coverage, panel gaps and whether the mounting hardware is included. The OEM vs aftermarket body parts comparison covers what to expect from a good aftermarket panel.
A stocking plan for a Revo programme
A mixed 20ft for a distributor servicing Revo and Vigo fleets, using planning-level quantities:
| SKU | Suggested quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Revo LED headlight 2020–2022 | 30 pairs | Facelift demand and retail margin |
| Revo LED tail light 2016–2022 | 40 pairs | Rear-impact repair |
| Revo rear step bumper | 20 pcs | Black and chrome mixed |
| Revo hood | 15 pcs | Collision repair, freight-efficient |
| Revo body kit | 10 sets | Styling channel |
| Revo mirror covers | 50 pairs | Accessory fast mover |
| Vigo fog lamp kits | 30 sets | Older fleet base |
| Corner lamps and clips | 100+ pcs | The small parts that complete the repair |
The mix deliberately covers both generations: a Revo-only container leaves money on the table in markets where Vigo fleets are still working. The Southeast Asia market guide covers the RHD fitment and restock patterns for this region.
Order the front end as one kit
If you are rebuilding front-end stock for the Revo generation, send us the generation split, the LHD/RHD market and the quantities. We will return a suggested kit with the generation-correct lamps, grille, bumper, fender and clip lines, the current price bands and the lead time — usually within two business hours. Start an RFQ or request the 2026 catalogue for the full fitment list.
FAQ
How do I tell a Vigo from a Revo or Rocco? The front-end shape is the quickest guide: lamp and grille profiles differ between Vigo, Revo and Rocco, and facelifts change the bumper and grille again. A VIN or a photo of the original lamp label confirms the generation before you order.
Which Hilux front-end parts interchange? Few do. Headlamps, grille, bumper and fender are generation-specific, and facelift years can differ even inside one generation. Mirrors and some trim also vary by trim level. Confirm the generation and side on every line rather than assuming a family fit.
What is a sensible starter basket? A front-corner basket — headlamp, fender, bumper, grille and mirror cover — in the generation your market repairs most. MOQ starts at 20 pcs on stock parts and 20 pairs on lamps, and the basket can travel in a mixed container with styling lines.
What causes most Hilux front-end returns? Wrong generation and wrong side are the two biggest causes, followed by connector differences on LED lamps. Send the VIN and a photo of the damaged corner, and ask for written fitment confirmation; that short message prevents most return freight.
