DRL's melting need new cover or other ideas!!!!

Hey guys, I bought my used Tacoma about 3 months ago and want to retrofit my headlights. My DRL covers are completely melted and cracked and discolored though. I called Toyota and visited a dealership and I'm so fed up with them. Told me since my warranty is expired that they cant fix them and the only way to get it fixed is to get a brand new housing on both sides for 1200$..... and that they dont sell a piece from a recall is beyond me.So they want me to pay for something that was their fault which makes no sense at all. If ANYONE has any info on where I can get a new cover or alternate ideas I would greatly appreciate it. Because as of right now I'm pretty pissed with Toyota right now. Thanks!

Free shipping and multiple sets available

Oh, and be sure the drl lamps are not over the rated wattage... if they are the correct ones I'd consider using a next lower wattage to reduce the heat.

If you're going to Retro your lights then don't worry about that piece of plastic in front of the DTRL bulb.

$1200 for headlights? I priced a set of "Sport" headlights and they were $600 from the dealership (which is still stupid)

What it looked like without the lens in front of the DTRL when I had my 2011
