Hi,

The 2007 Prius with HID headlights costs $250 PER SIDE to have replaced at the dealer! They have to drop the bumper fascia -- and having the second one done at the same time DOES NOT save the labor charge. So, having both replaced costs you $500.

This adds insult to injury in that the HID bulbs blink off and on randomly, and they have to be replaced to fix the issue. Even though this is a "known issue", you still have to pay $500...
