    lol! I'm pretty sure the one screw will secure the fog light in place but I'm also concerned about the vibration, unless the pockets are pretty slim and don't give room for play. Also went ahead and ordered the Nokya LED fog lights. can't wait, they'll all arrive around or before the time my JDM window visors arrive :D

    There's very little room for play with those tabs and the screw holding it in place.

    I'm interested in seeing how the Nokya's work out! I'd prefer to have them on my car, but I'm not up for spending that on the fogs right now.

    Gotya......the vibration might be an issue. The tabs could use something to help wedge them in tighter.

    Let u know how the LEDs work out.

    Got the grille today. The LED lights are on back order so I ordered a set of OEM-style 2010+ Toyota Prius yellow fogs. Should have everything wired up next weekend while I wait for the nokyas.

    Also ordered the console tray since Toyota decided it was a swell idea to omit it from the 2012 model.

    I paid 19.00 for the tray and 102.00 for the grille, plus CA tax and 15.00 UPS ground shipping. Ordered the parts on tuesday. Total came out to about 147.00

    Lol that would be helpful, yeah I ordered it from Toyotapartszone.com. Just punch in the p/n and order away. I ordered from their sister sites specializing in Acura and Nissan parts in the past and never had an issue and they exceeded my expectation with their Toyota parts site from this transaction.

    Here's a better shot of the grille, just like Sean said, it's prepainted.
    IMG_7026.jpg

    What the back looks like. It's secured on by means of clips and two screws/bolts. I think it just might be possible to remove this piece without having to remove the front bumper. I'll find out tomorrow!

    EDIT: I changed my fog light order to a set of OEM style 2006-2008 Toyota Yaris 3-door. Costed me $55.00 instead of $90.00, and since all I am really after is the switch and harness, it's a great deal. The fog lights are identical for multiple vehicles, including Prius, Highlander, Camry, Yaris 3d/4d, etc. I'll roll with the OEM fog lights until the Nokya come in.

    The Yaris fog lights I ordered. Should be getting them tomorrow or Monday:

    Ok Im gonna have to bother you for the part number for the grill. In Sv's post he lists it as part number 53102-47010 in another post its 53102-47020. Both list as the same part its just a $2 buck difference. Which did you order Steve? Thanks.

    This is what was on my order form from the dealer:

    There was a typo that I fixed but because some1 quoted me before i fixed it, is still shows the incorrect part #.

    No. U can use any gen3 fog light (OEM or aftermarket) or the Yaris fog light. They all fit in the 2012 Prius. The OEM Prius fog light is about $125 each.
