    Hi everybody, I have a broken tail light housing on my Prius 2016 (the red light portion of it doesn't work as well) I want to replace it myself if possible. I looked around the web and I don't seem to find any helpful instructions or previous similar experiences. Any one could help me finding instructions on how to replace it? Thanks!

    You could try a wrecking yard/car dismantler.
