Interesting. I didn't know any other car maker that spec'd a Toyota filter, nor have I ever seen a cross-reference chart that listed Toyota filter Part numbers for anything but a Toyota.
Live and learn.
Of course no car maker (besides Toyota) is going to "spec" a Toyota oil filter for their car. So what you need to do is determine if the filter you use on your car is also one that fits a Toyota vehicle, then look for the TRD filter called out for that specific Toyota vehicle. It's a round about way to do your own cross-reference.
Give me your car's year/make/model and I'll show you an example on how to do it.
