The downside to eBay gasket kits is that, as you know, you can't tell if they're quality or not. The pictures suck, the descriptions suck, and the seller just doesn't usually put any effort into the listing. What does this tell me? The item probably sucks. IMO, you're better off buying your gaskets from the dealer (recommended) or an auto parts store; somewhere you can inspect the gasket and it's material.

Hope this helps you out some.
thanks...thats all someone had to tell me...i guess ill go for a felpro head gasket set for $190....instead of oem TOYOTA Dealer Headgasket Set for $380
