    Hi Bino,

    Yes, I think I will go with the projector housing as well. But the problem is that I cannot find one that will fit on my Prius on eBay. Any help?

    Now, I already have a fog light on my 2010 Prius and I bought the H11 HID 3000k kit. When I look for projector housing on eBay, they only have ones that are universal and they are using H3 as the size of the light bulb. When I ask them if they will have a perfect fit fog light replacement unit, they told me that they are all universal and I have to do my own measurement. Does yours fits perfectly? If so, do you think they will have them on eBay?

    It will be nice if you can let me know.

    Thanks.

    Samuel

    Hi Samuel,

    I'm not sure on the fog lights that are on ebay...... I got mine from Japan and I was trying to find the link for the seller but it seems there are no more postings for the lights that I got....... the fog lights I got fit perfectly because it was specifically for toyota cars with that kind of fog light housing....

    Hi Bino,

    Yes, most of the projector fog light housings are universal and for H3 light bulb. (which sucks!)

    Thanks again.

    Hi Bino,

    Thanks for providing the link again.

    Now, I have an issue with my 2010 Prius. After I installed the Front sway bar & Rear sway bar & Front camber bolt, my steering wheel shakes whenever I get up to 65mph+. Once I get up to 85mph+, the whole rear kind of vibrate. The noise is quite noticeable. Do you suggest me to get the Hub Centric Rings? Will it resolve the issue? (FYI, I recently did alignment and wheel balance. I even have the shop redo the wheel balance after the vibrating issue happened.)
    What I have done to my Prius so far: TRD lowering spring, Tanabe Front tower bar, Tanabe Front sway bar, TRD Rear sway bar & Front camber bolt.

    Please advise.

    Thanks.

    Samuel

    My control arm bolt was loose on the driver side front after I installed tanabe front sway and given me a bad shake felt like it was driving on ice or turning on its own. You sure u didn't leave anything loose when installing the rear sway.
    Check my couple post in this thread where I descriceomy latest problems... easier to let u read that then me type it again lol

    anyone with Camber wear after lowering car? | Page 2 | PriusChat

    I also had bad steering wheel vibration at high speeds and come to find out when me and a friend had pulled my front factory sway out we pulled the axle boot off but put it back in. At that time we didn't realize we pulled the axel out a bit and didn't force it back in and I ruined my axel... needed a new one and let dealer do it $800 later

    I will definitely check again tonight to see if there is anything loose. I am assuming that it has to had something to do with the Front sway bar or Rear sway bar or Front camber bolt because I never have any problem after I installed the Front tower bar and TRD lowering springs. Specially, alignment & wheel balance were done quickly after.

    yea I'd definitely pull the install instructions for the front and rear sway and go over it all making sure it's all tight. If you can't find install instructions I have them in my build page which is located in my signature below

    if I'm not mistaken the 2012+ foglights should be the same as the 2010s

    here's the link for the projector fogs:

    This is the only seller that I know of that sells the projector fogs for the toyota but it seems it has not updated their site.....

    Try to see if they would update the site by next week...

    The kit that I got fits perfectly on the prius.... the housing is exactly the same as the OEM ones (same shape, dimension, housing...) .. so no fitment issues......

    were you able to get a set for your brz? I remember sending you a link for it.......

    Hello Bino,

    Yes, I was able to get them for the BRZ. Thanks again. Awesome cut :) Recently bought a Yaris and would like to have them on the Yaris as well :) apparently 2012 Yaris uses the same fogs as the 2010 Prius
