I have to chuckle. What you make seem easy enough, I know if I tried it, it would take me days and would end up at the mechanic anyway. Thank God for computers and big data - else I’d struggle to make a living.
Note if you have an OEM HID system don’t order the base (halogen) fixture. The bail securing the bulb is completely different. As well you would need to rewire the connector to the bulbs for 12volt bypassing the high voltage ballast. Third the round access door behind the bulb is different sized. Don’t ask how I know. Mod back to halogen may be cheaper but not worth the hassle. Loved your video. Keep it up
I've replaced the headlamp bulbs on two different 2008 Priuses, and many of these steps don't really need to be done. The wheels don't need to be removed and none of the fasteners needs to be removed from the underside of the car. When the upper part of the bumper cover is released, there is plenty of room to tip the cover forward, remove the headlamp fixtures, and access the HID bulbs.

Thanks for the video, I needed to see this, just to make sure my mechanic wasn’t overcharging.

Great video, I would add that you should test the lights before doing all the reassembly
Thanks for taking the time to make this very detailed and easy to understand video.
what's wrong with a car company that makes that many steps to change a headlight . It's almost like they HATE their customers. Thanks for the video

What are those locking pliers ?

An excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Is all this necessary or are you just following my the Manuel
Seems like a lot
Jesus. It’s like the plastic trim layers is insane. No wonder my insurance is crazy for this car.
I’ve taken out the light before to put in the cooler and didn’t have to take off the wheel
I can get the head light capsule out in 2.5 minutes or less. this was alot of extra unnecessary steps.
You don't need to take off all of that. Smh
That is not a 2004 toyota prius. That is a newer model. Why is this video an absolute lie?
Great tutorial, to the point, all steps clearly shown. Subscribed
