    I took my 2010 prius IV to a bodyshop for some minor bodywork on the front fender and they said the holding tabs for the driver side headlight are broken and that it's 850 bucks to replace. Is there a cheaper option??

    The stock lamps are halogen. Xenon or HID's are not available on 3rd gen. Only halogen or LED were stock.
