    Regarding the headlight, I suggest that you see whether you can buy the entire HID headlight assembly from a salvage yard. Maybe the electronics within the current assembly were damaged by the accident.

    Regarding the idiot who replaced the airbags, you'll probably have to take the car to a Toyota dealer to have the diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) read.

    Is the car driveable in its current condition? If not, was it driveable before the airbags were replaced?
