Color temperature is represented in Kelvin with cool colors having a Kelvin rating of over 5,000 and warm colors in a range from about 2,700 to 3,000 Kelvin. It's actually pretty interesting if you look into it more.
The chances of new bulbs such as # DI78VR being the same color temperature as existing lights on a vehicle is slim due to variations in the spectrum. So for example 2 different bulbs claiming 5,000 Kelvin may not look exactly the same.

When you state that your trailer has a 7-pin flat pin plug, are you referring to a 7-way like part # A7WCB?
If so, please be aware that a 7-way connector such as that would frequently be found on a larger trailer that has electric brakes that probably shouldn't be towed by a Prius. I don't believe Toyota recommends using the Prius for towing, you'll want to consult your owner's manual.
If the trailer is smaller and doesn't have brakes, you can use an adapter like # 37185 to convert the... view full answer...
I have attached a photo showing the Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch, # 24847, on a 2011 Toyota Prius for you to check out. Unfortunately we do not have photos available of this hitch on a 2010 Prius, but this photo should give you a good idea of what the trailer hitch will look like once it is installed.
I have also linked you to the installation instructions and the installation video if you think that you might want to try to install the trailer hitch yourself. There is a small amount... view full answer...
You can certainly lock the Thule Hitching Post Pro to your Prius. The rack includes an anti-rattle hitch pin, which you can lock by adding the # THSTL2 hitch lock. A cable lock, part # TH538XT is also available. You can key the two locks alike by purchasing two keyed alike lock cores, part # TH450200.
Thule uses a proprietary hitch pin, so a hitch lock form a different manufacturer likely wouldn't work. You can see product description videos for the parts I recommended by clicking the... view full answer...
The nice thing about the Saris Bones bike rack is that the upper and lower arms will straddle the wind deflector on your Prius. With this mounting style, the straps will not touch the wind deflector. This is how pretty much all bike racks will mount on your Prius.
It is possible that Toyota could void your warranty if the bike rack actually causes the damage in question, but simply installing a bike rack cannot automatically void the warranty. Consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss... view full answer...
Although OEM hitches can be found on certain trucks and SUV's, they wouldn't be found on a Prius. You would need to install an aftermarket hitch, like the Draw-Tite Class I hitch, part # 24847. The hitch would provide a great attachment point for a hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack or a cargo carrier.
If you're considering towing with your Prius, I'd recommend you reconsider as Toyota doesn't recommend towing with that vehicle. view full answer...
The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7196 for your 2008 Toyota Prius doesn't use a traditional class rating system like other receivers since it does use a 2" receiver that does not carry the minimum weight capacities that would give it a class III rating. The best way to describe the receiver is a 2" receiver with a class II weight rating.
The maximum allowed tongue weight of the receiver is 300lbs and you will want to verify with your Toyota dealer as to the maximum weight... view full answer...
Yes, that is correct. When you load your 2009 Toyota Prius on the Roadmaster Tow Dolly # RM-2050-1 you will place the transmission in park and leave the parking brake off. view full answer...
