    I just received a new set of headlights from Lewis Toyota via their Black Friday sale. Shipped fast and packed well......I took them out of the box and found a loose plastic piece in the driver's side headlight. It is the DRL/turn signal cover (see pictures).
    Is this something I can fix without worrying about the factory seal leaking, or is this an automatic return for a new one.
    Appreciate all your help.Passenger side headlight.jpg [Drivers side headlight.jpg

    Lewis Toyota came through big time. Had a return auth in my email within hours of contacting them. Had the bad one going back the next morning and my new and perfect headlight arrived today. Thank you Lewis Toyota...I am impressed.
