Locks and Hardware for Toyota Sequoia

The Toyota Sequoia is an SUV that has a large amount of interior space with seats in the front and rear. Over time, as your vehicle experiences normal wear and tear, you may need to replace your Sequoias locks and hardware.

Replacement hardware such as locks, actuators, and other smaller components come from Toyota and other manufacturers.

• Original equipment manufacturer: Also known as OEM hardware, this includes all of the replacement parts that Toyota makes. Toyota manufactures parts that are specific to certain models, such as the Sequoia. OEM stock can include salvaged parts and new old stock. Also called NOS, new old stock is merchandise made in the past but not sold until recently.
• Branded aftermarket parts: These parts come from major manufacturers other than Toyota. Each part has a branding on it that lets you know it is compatible with your Sequoia.
• Unbranded hardware: This refers to hardware and parts that come from manufacturers that do not list their names on the packages.

Not all hardware is compatible with all versions of the Toyota Sequoia. First generation vehicles include those produced between 2007 and 2008. The second generation started at the end of 2008. Youll need to find out what generation Toyota Sequoia you have and then look for parts that are designed for that vehicle.

An actuator is a small device that almost looks like a motor. It serves just one purpose: to make the locks in your Toyota SUV functional. When you have power locks, it allows you to press one button to engage and disengage the lock. You can use it to lock all the doors at the same time as well. If your door locks stop working with the button on your control panel, you may need a new actuator. There are also window regulators that work similarly to actuators. These regulators force the window to go up and down when you use the button on your door.

One important thing to consider when looking at hardware for a Toyota Sequoia is where you will use it. This Toyota model uses different types of hardware on each door. Some vehicles come with a power lift gate that causes the rear door to open with the touch of a button. Others use a more standard door handle with a manual design. Other parts will work only on the drivers side or passengers side.
