    2010 TOYOTA PRIUS OEM STYLE DRIVING FOG LIGHTS LAMP 10:eBay Motors (item 120473845500 end time Sep-30-09 22:53:43 PDT)

    For $210 shipped.

    Hmm... it's nothing more than $43 aftermarket foglight kit for Yaris/Camry (we all know lamps are same) plus OEM style cover.

    You can order genuine OEM cover for about $70 or so from places like parts.com and buy a kit made for yaris for about $43 shipped from eBay. I just did the conversion for about $135 total shipped. But I am sure some unsuspecting owners will bite into that and pay $70 for convinience of ordering from single location instead of two. Consider yourself informed. Take your wife to a nice dinner with $70 saved. :D

    Re: new ebay fogs

    The picture of the barcelona red prius in the auction is BS since it is already a Prius V that comes with the fog lamps.

    Not saying they wouldn't look good, just that their picture is misleading since it is not their product installed...

    Wow, both of these threads were started at the exact same time.

    Anyways, since they are about the exact same auction I merged them into one...

    Who says it's ebay crap?

    They are charging $200. An enterprising Prius Chatter could buy the $43 or cheaper Corolla/Yaris kit and order the two light covers for $75 total from parts.com and throw it up on eBay and make some $75 or so per kit pure profit. Hell, I think I know what I'm going to go do :)

    Any idea how difficult these are to install? Are instructions available? Does Toyota offer OEM fog lights for retrofitting?

    Parts.com doesn't list anything for the 2010 Prius. Do you have a part number?
