Toyota has to be getting a lot of flack for no fog light accessory to buy with such a butt-ugly grey "plug" where fog lights should be! I'd suspect the wiring is there, but they are holding back to force fog light buyers to consider the advanced tech package.

The other thing I can't understand is why there are no mudflaps or wheel well liners to cover those ugly areas as well!

I would imagine it would not be much harder to fabricate your own fog light kit. I did this on our '08 and it looks stock and functions perfectly. I would imagine obtaining parts would be the hardest part since the model is so new.

has anyone gotten hold of the wiring diagram. Please let me know. I am going down to my dealer to talk to one of the mechanics there as surely they will know if the wires are there in the front bumper and waiting. I spoke to parts and they can order everything need as far as the lamps,new inserts to replace the knockouts and of course a new stalk(all the above from the prius v).the wiring harness would be the major catch. Replacing the stalk would be the most stock way to go. All of the above estimated about 5-600 dollars i would suspect.

I really don't understand why LED and Fog Lights don't come standard in all Prius models, I ordered the Prius IV and now I am waiting for the aftermarket parts so I can have these two features installed, I would have spent the extra cash for the Prius V but wouldn't you know, no moonroof.

Missing an option from the poll
Where is,
I am outside North America and I get fog lights even on the base model.

It looks like fog lights are shaping up as the disc rear brakes and height adjustable seat of the 2010 model year.
People who know me know what I'm talking about.

I'm tempted by the gold logos, but since the AT package apparently uses a different front emblem (for the radar), I'd have to somehow confirm whether there was a version that worked with that.

There's a kit on eCrater for $90 from BlingLights. I haven't seen these on eBay yet. Anyone familiar with them?
