Indeed, replace the lens yourself. I had the same issue when I accidentally backed into a garbage can. It's not super easy, but you'll need to remove the bumper cover and a part of the trunk interior to get at the light. The dumbest part is that there are 2 rivets holding a piece that is in front of the lens and you have to get that off. I just drilled them out and replaced them with self tapping screws. Also - if the little electric door sticks again, just spray the release mechanism with silicon.

Original poster... One year later, 8,128 on the clock and have used 46.7 gallons of fuel. Of which, 22.5 gallons was used going from Napa to Disneyland & back. As for charging let's see, I drive into the driveway & park, open the garage door, on the car's panel I select charge, charge level, 12 Amps, shut the car off, push the charge door button, get out, go to the charging unit in the garage (about 8 feet away) and come back & plug in the car. Total time, about a minute... In 5 to 10 years you won't be able to buy a gasoline only powered vehicle...

The part that got me is staying up past midnight during a work week just to save more on electricity. Off peak means I would be off my peak at work in the morning.
