so i won a GT4 hood on ebay the other day.. and i was wondering where i can get the hood latch for it. i search 6gc and i found a thread started by nics and someone posted something about it being discontinued or something. so i went on google and came across this site click here. (press Ctrl + f and search "LHD"). so i got the part number (which was 53510-20510) went to toyotaworld.com and put it in. and sure enough it shows that they have it. i was wondering if this is the actual LHD GT4 hood latch or maybe the poster on that forum mistaken the part # for the ST202/AT200 hood latch? confirmation would be great.. thanks!

it shows in the site but you might wanna call them to confirm that they can actually get hold of it before you order.

53510-20510 = LHD hood latch. Yes that's the correct part #. I got it on eBay last year in new condition still in the original box and had the part # sticker.

I think he means that its probably a part number thats used in a usdm camry or some other toyota thats sold here in the states. Often times the same hood latch will work with different car models from the same manufacture.

there is a thread around here somewhere that shows the actual diffrence in legnth between the gt-4 latch and the stock one.
its VERY easy to replicate the '4 latch by welding a peice to extend the stock latch by ~1" or so.

found the thread:
