    So I backed into a perfectly aligned bike handle bar and it punctured a 1" dia hole in my passenger side tail light cover. Is there anywhere to order just the plastic cover (lights are fine) or do I need to replace the whole assembly? I've done some searching online (google, ebay, Amazon) and I can only find whole assembly or custom covers. Id much prefer to just replace with a stock OEM part, but before I go to the dealership and get them to replace the whole assembly I'd like to see what my options are. Its a 2013 Taco.

    Thanks in advance!

    Those aren't covers, so you'll have to put a whole new ligght assembly in.

    No worries. There are options for ordering stuff...Check out Camelback Toyota (a vendor here). They may be able to get you a better deal than the cost at your local parts counter.

    Unless you find someone selling a set on kijiji or something, you're pretty much going to be going to the dealership. I'd stay away from the ebay ones etc.

    I got a quote from one of the dealers in Edmonton. They were asking over $300 just for one light assembly. So instead I found a pair on ebay with a smoked tint for $120.
