Friends: 0 | Re: headlight failure I just had my left headlight replaced. Toyota wanted 309 for the bulb - about $400 to replace total. My good mechanic found a bulb at NAPA for 109 so I got out of it for $200. After seeing what he had to do to replace it, I consider this the worst design feature I've seen on the dozen or so Japanese cars I've owned over the years. The owners manual is no help either. If you want to do it yourself, you need to completely take off the bumper cover, that's the trick. |
