    If you follow my tips to collapse the white clips/fasteners first, you'll have an easy time. ucsmfu had trouble at first because he didn't know this.

    A quick googling brought up REAR COMBINATION LAMP. Fits: TOYOTA | Village Toyota Parts

    Looks like the yellow clip is 81496, but Calvin can confirm. I'm surprised your body shop couldn't locate this clip for you.

    Thanks. Hopefully he can confirm. I'm sure they can get it, they have just not given any indication of caring to replace it, as in 'oh well, it won't matter if it's broken'..... I did find the post I had seen previously where El Nino had given a link:

    For anybody that may have broken a retainer or mangled a fastener.

    Side Note - My interior corner cowls have had their fasteners take a beating between the door sills, fog lights, and led mirrors installed. Can't seem find the right part through the illustrations for them yet though.

    Sorry I haven't had time to check. Been in a seminar and classes so not much free time. I'll look for them this weekend.

    They're the K2 Tuning taillights. The $250 ones aren't full LED (turn signal and reverse lights are still halogens). The $300 ones are, but don't look as good as the Valenti lights. You get what you pay for.

    Valenti's are awesome, highly recommended, was originally going to go with the k2 tail lights, but after reading some reviews and looking into it more I went with the Valenti's, it's more $ but it's worth every penny, highly recommended.
