    Yeah, static is where it's at. But on a more serious note, you, @HAWAIIANBUILT, @bisco and many others got me hooked on the 3rd gen Prius when I had a 2nd Gen Prius following what @Justdidit was doing to his prius. I haven't looked back since, but my wife has sure looked at my credit card bills a lot after I got the Gen 3. Lol

    This made me laugh a little lol [​IMG]
    "more bright suitable for under any weather conditions", fog lights, especially bright ones only blind u more in the fog, theyre useless.... I just like em for the looks really, rear fog lights isnt useless, but front fogs r.

    Worst part is, at least in the 2010-2011 bumper, it's such a tight fit that you can't adjust it to properly aim down, so it acts like a secondary headlight instead of as a fog light. The new ones look like they have more leeway for adjustment and better mechanisms to keep them aimed as desired.

    If you remove that little clip at the 7 o'clock position it will come off a lot easier....
    You can put it on after installing the new filter.

    Really wanted to do that myself, but thanks to retarded Norwegian regulations "only white light as parking light" is "allowed", which is nonsense... It aint even legal to swap to LED bulbs, people do it anyways and they still get thru peridoic vehicle control tho, as long as its white...

    I just purchased kit. Last oil change I had to really tighten plastic housing due to change in O-ring and plastic to metal, so I know the next change it will be really tough to unscrew. So, I will just do the full Monty with this new set up.

    How about "What you couldn't do to ur Gen III"

    Couldn't replace HV fan screen filter because it's not replaceable, then why is there's a replacement part for it

    That part just snaps on the front of the grill, as added protection. It's not a replacement part.. :)
