    My son’s friend came over and leaned on the snowmobile trailer… which slid on the melting uneven ground. Could have been worse I guess. I’m thinking after market as the OEM is $1000 I’ve been told

    No aftermarket is the quality of oem. Yes you may spend less, but then you get low life span and other issues since all of the Brake and blinker functions go through the ecu.

    I don't know how I would react to that. That sucks.

    Ah bummer. You’re right though, a small dent and scratch would be more.

    Oem tail light is nowhere near $1000. Maybe for both. I see from Toyota, the right taillight for $370 for non premium light and $450 for premium light. DIY. There’s 2 10mm bolts and connector.

    Can’t get too mad, he’s a good kid and it was a fluke. He already feels terrible. I’ll check out OEM Monday. Thanks for the notes

    That sucks. Might want to chock those tires man. You got off easy on this one. Next time it could be the house, a loved one, etc.
