    Your post ended up in the Gen. 1 forum, but nevertheless I can recommend greentec (Greentec Auto | EV and Hybrid Battery Replacement & Repair) out of Kansas City, with service facilities all over. They do mobile installs in your driveway, very convenient. I had my '02 done by them last August. Check the website for a location near you (I see they have a Chicago location), and give them a call at the number on the site.

    Greetings... The brand new OEM packs have become thousands of dollars more expensive due to tariiffs and Toyota punishing people for being so loyal to keeping their ancient Gen2 on the road because it was the best car ever built.

    This guy in Bend, Oregon will ship you a high quality rebuilt pack that are good for a few years. For slightly more ($1800) he'll sell you a set of Gen 4 modules (2016-2022) from a wrecked Prius that may last as long as another decade: Eco-Friendly Refurbished Hybrid Car Batteries for Sale

    Or my favorite option for a hundred dollars more than that is a brand new Sodium-Ion battery which holds more charge during mountain climbing and all ev mode, as well as charges back up to full faster than OEM. Learn more here: Toyota hybrid battery upgrade pack– NexPower Energy
