Two questions

[highpsi4]

I have been looking at after market parts, some parts are listed as 2003 to 2007, not including 2008. Then some items are listed to fit a 2003 to 2008 matrix or a 2003 to 2007 corolla, but again, not the 2008. Should everything also fit the 2008 corolla?

Also, I figure that the gen 10 corolla has engine/drivetrain changes, but what are the acutal chassis differences between the 2008 and 2009?

The 2008 is the same body style as the 2007-2003. I don't know why some parts & accessorie suppliers leave the 2008 year out. All the sheet metal,chassis, interior, brake, engine/trans parts are the same. The only possible differences might be small things like the pcm(ecu), a few sensors, and misc electrical parts such as relays and switches. With the research that I have done I believe almost everything to be the same, I don't think that Toyota would of invested time and money in really changing anything as the 2009 model was available by early 2008.

Some aftermarket parts companies don't even bother investing the time it takes to research and indicate the correct year range for some cars. I would avoid them.

Yea, that is what I am thinking on some of this stuff.
