$67 + shipping is a ripoff-I always Used to use J C Whitney for this stuff but thier website is unuseable-unless you want overpriced add-on junk. These tailites have seperate lens but everybody wants to sell the whole thing-already been to local junkyards.

The lens is permanently adhered to the housing with epoxy and is meant to be water tight. That's why you cant get just the lens..
I think $67.00 is a bit high. The lens assy from toyota is $56.84, part number 81551-04020.

I believe, the Federal law (in US) prohibits selling JUST the lense. Mercdees-Benz used to do this, and not do not, for this reason. Might you want to call around various junk yards??
I think, the rationale is, that headlamp is a safety device that what disturbes the light distribution (such as lense) needs to be sold as an assembly, not as parts.
