    I recently purchased a used 2017 prius 2 from a guy that buys them at auctions with slight body damage and repairs them to sell.
    I noticed the headlights were a little off after purchasing it. The driver side that had been repaired was much brighter but is probably angled down too much, and I can't really see ahead with only that light on when I'm driving in dark places. Is it possible the highbeam/lowbeams were/could be mismatched?

    The passenger side keeps randomly going out, but is now completely out. I thought it could be a wiring issue? Are there any videos on headlight replacements for the gen 4?

    Just wondering if you found a solution to the problem, I have a 2016 and the passenger light is out as well, with no power coming from the harness only on the passenger side
