    I bought a lemon from Culver City Toyota and they refuse to make it right. Where can I just buy a battery pack to install myself? It has to be new.

    Why does it "have to be new" ??
    About the only place to get that is a Toyota dealer.

    A re-used frame with all new cells should be just as good......if it has a similar warranty.
