2022 Toyota Tacoma
10 factory colors were offered on the Third generation (AN300) Tacoma. Your code is on the driver's door jamb sticker on the line marked C/TR — the characters before the slash.
Changes from 2021:
- Added for 2022: Celestial Silver Metallic (1J9), Electric Lime Metallic (588), Blue Crush Metallic (8W7)
- Dropped after 2021: Silver Sky Metallic (1D6), Cement (1H5), Voodoo Blue (8T6)
Verified against 2 independent sources: 2022 Toyota Tacoma official brochure (dealer CDN mirror): https://cdn.dealereprocess.org/cdn/brochures/toyota/2022-tacoma.pdf — Tacoma Colors & Trims page lists Midnight Black Metallic, Blue Crush Metallic, Army Green, Electric Lime Metallic, Lunar Rock, Barcelona Red Metallic, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Celestial Silver Metallic, Wind Chill Pearl, Super White; PaintRef Toyota cross-reference, 2022 Tacoma: https://www.paintref.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?year=2022&make=Toyota&model=Tacoma&rows=100 — returns exactly these 10 codes.
A heavy reshuffle. Celestial Silver Metallic 1J9 replaces Silver Sky Metallic 1D6; Blue Crush Metallic 8W7 replaces Voodoo Blue 8T6; Electric Lime Metallic 588 comes in as the TRD Pro exclusive; Lunar Rock 6X3 drops its TRD Pro restriction and becomes broadly available. Cement 1H5 is gone.
Where to find your paint code
Driver's door jamb (B-pillar), on the white or silver build sticker, on the row labelled C/TR.
Driver's door jamb
- Open the driver's door and look at the B-pillar at roughly latch height.
- Find the row labelled C/TR on the printed sticker.
- The three characters before the slash are the paint code.
- The characters after the slash are the interior trim code, not paint.
If the sticker is missing or faded
- Call any Toyota dealer parts desk with your VIN. They can read the code off the build record, usually in under a minute and at no cost.
- Genuine Toyota touch-up part numbers embed the paint code — part 00258-004X0-21 is code 4X0.
Other Tacoma years
Color availability changed year to year. Codes often carried over; names sometimes did not.
