    I'm in the market for fog light for my PC2. Local Toyota dealer asking 890$ + taxes for fog lights complete kit.

    Total: 1038$ before installation.

    I would want a kit like this for much much cheaper Toyota of McDonough Parts — 00016-47160 Toyota Prius C Fog Light Kit

    but Toyota Mcdonough don't ship in Canada.

    Same kit are available on EBay.com, but sellers don't accept to ship to Canada.

    Anyone have another place in mind? 1038$ is a totally rape from local dealer in Canada.

    Thanx.

    Yeah the reason is Toyota introduced a revision to it's dealer agreement that keeps all Toyota dealers from exporting parts outside of their respective marketing areas. Any U.S. dealer that sells outside the country risks big papa Toyota getting upset. My suggestion is for you to find someone in the U.S. to serve as a proxy buyer for you. If you have someone you can trust to pay for it from a U.S. address and forward it to you, that has been done by lots of Canadian Toyota owners.

    How close are you to the US border? Can you get it installed at a US dealership instead?

    I'm in Canada I buy my stuff from TRDsparks.com it's way cheaper than buying locally. They ship to Canada, no problem.
