    Really doubt it; isn't it special glass?

    @Danny , please look into the posting delay.

    Yes - Amazon $55 bucks.

    Works through the OBD port.

    if you need it badly, just trade in your car and get with HUD and be done with it, aftermarket are useless.

    I dont want it that bad lol. love my touring, I was just disappointed when i found out they didnt have it on the touring. I'm kind of baffled by this strategy. why not have a trim with all the bells and whistles? There is no way for me to have it all, I don't like sacrifices.

    I felt the same disappointment and frustration with Toyota's marketing strategy in the US/CDN region;

    • No eAWD option at all is available on any Prius model,
    • Fog lights only available with the Touring package,
    • HUD option not available with the 'top of the line' Touring package.

    I can't do anything about the eAWD, but figure it's easier to add fog lights to non-Touring than it is to add the HUD to a Touring model.

    So, that's what I'm doing. I wasn't thrilled with the Touring's stock rims and tires anyway...so those have already been dealt with. I now have a pair of the OEM fog lights (they arrived Saturday) and a relay harness for them. I'm not going to retrofit a Touring light-control/turn-signal stalk, just going to wire the three DRL LEDs per side into the headlight side LED, and control the two fogs themselves using the relay and a separate dash switch.

    I'm planning to document the install and share that here (no promises though). I'm also trying to coordinate this with installing the Stebel air horn, Euro mudguards and JDM side window visors I've acquired. I'm contemplating picking up a set of Tanabe NF210 springs to drop it ~1 inch, but unsure if stock shocks n struts will be adequate with those, or if I'll need to go to full coil-overs (Tein Comfort Sport with NFDC perhaps, but pricey...). The car will have to be be offline for a bit while this gets done of course, so some planning is needed for logistics and timing.

    I am curious about where do you get your OEM Fog lights from ?
    Can you please post a link of this supplier ?
    Thanks

    81220-47030 | FOG LAMP ASSY | Genuine Toyota OEM Parts

    81210-47030 | FOG LAMP ASSY | Genuine Toyota OEM Parts

    You'll still need more stuff to get them wired in: relay, harness, switch(es), etc. I'm working through the details of getting these installed myself, so it remains a good bit of "undiscovered country"...

    For further info on retrofitting OEM fog lights to a P4, allow me to point you to this thread:

    Does the fog light comes with connector to plug in? If not, how do you hook the wires into the lights?
