    I see a LOT of fog lights for the 2010-11 Prius on eBay. Some appear to be exactly like what is sold here in the Accessories area.On the other hand others aren't quite the same, they don't appear to have the same Philips screw adjuster and no one says that the switch will fit in the dash panel.

    Has anyone ordered a kit from eBay that looked like what is shown in the accessory area?

    Just trying to save a few dollars as I am on disability, but I don't want to be penny wise and pound foolish!

    Thanks to all :D

    The Yaris kits fit, but you'll need to get the bezels for the Prius as well ($40-60 depending upon aftermarket vs OEM). The switch does fit (I'm 90% sure it was the yaris switch, but I may have to confirm the year), although the Prius specific one might be a little bit better of a fit, as the Yaris one didn't seem quite as snug in the dash. If the ebay kits comes with the Bezels, you should be just fine getting one of them.

    I purchased and installed the kit from cosmodynamic on eBay with no problems. Shipping was pretty fast via UPS ground.

    I would pay the little extra to support this great website that we all gather information for our spaceship time-traveling machines.

    Got my fogs and installed them within a week. Reading the comments on this website, it seemed that there was a delay between ordering and shipping/receiving the product.
