I'm in dire need of these. I will pay 5 bucks per shim plus cover shipping. Could be easy money if you got what I need.

Bad news, out of the 200+ shims I have, none your size. Closest I have is .120" (3.048mm) Might be good for your thinnest shim need.

Man. You need big shims. I have a bunch but my biggest one is 3.05. I'm not sure where you are from but if I ship it's probably not worth the cost for one. Maybe I can get away with a stamp.

I know SERIOUSLY! I measured everything I got (70 plus shims) and yeah, I got nothing like that. Way out of wack. WTF... I ended up ordering shims from Toyota.

I ordered from here: www.toyotaoempartsworld.com

Just under $7 a piece... As long as you know the part numbers for each shim you need.
