Default Toyota parts prices

Just want to share some information.

This site: https://www.trademotion.com/partloca...?siteid=213804

allow to inquire the parts catalog and diagram for Toyota model. The 2006 does not work but previous years work.

You'll be able to find out that the hybrid battery for a 2005 Toyota Prius worth $2,149.29 brand new.

Have fun.

Wow, that's pretty cheap, the first gen packs were $5,000+

Let's hope the price of battery technology keeps dropping.

I tried to find a battery price for my 2003 Prius but it had no listing. I didn't try the other years.

Hey Bob the unexpected aspect of the Conicelli/trademotion lookup is that batteries are in their "collision manuals". For 2003 Prius they show the HV battery for $2298.55 and the 12-volt for $67.72.

Wow!!

I've had to put up with so much cr*p from hybrid-haters who were claiming $4,000. Nice to know!!

Of course I'll buy one from Ebay for $500-1,000 but hey, self-maintenance.

Thanks for the Link... I had no idea the HID lights cost $240.00 Each... Thats going to make me keep them off during dusk for a lot longer... I had no idea. I would have stayed with a different package had I known that! MY GOD

HID lights last a lot longer than ordinary light bulbs, but yes, VERY expensive to replace.

Hey Bob if you get serious about used battery packs off ebay we are going to have to get more than one, and gain access to a Cadex battery analyzer. Build up a pack from well-matched modules, and make lightweight 12 v substitutes from the weak ones.

For some time I thought that hybrid battery rebuilding might become a Cottage Industry, but apparently Toyota has figured out how to make them last extremely long times. And those new-pack prices are limiting the profit margin...

OOOH, a light weight substitute for the auxillary battery. Interesting!!

Bob, yes 4 of the NiMH modules in parallel and charged at a constant 13.8 to 14 volts is certainly not best practice, but I imagine that they would handle it OK. Needs testing. Anyway, it is just something to do with the weaker modules after a battery assembly tear-down.

A single module would probably handle the bootup current requirement (dominated by the brake fluid pump), but we generally desire some amount of amp-hours for long shutdown periods. Use fewer in parallel for special applications?
