Replaced engine air filter. Old one looked pretty clean, though not as white as new one. Tried to replace rear wiper blade with old front one as I thought PriusChat suggested, but front rubber is much wider and didn't fit. I guess they suggested buying a cheap blade and cutting it to size.

Replaced right low-beam headlight bulb. Sylvania H11 XtraVision (same as left bulb), second of four price levels. Didn't get it right for a few days until following PriusChat advice to insert before plugging in, waaay easier. Also locks clockwise, I think I was trying ccw. (I think main problem was old gasket stayed stuck to car.) Also swapped to verify problem wasn't bulb, so new one is now on driver side.

Oil change. They checked "May require future attention" for cabin air filter. I guess it got pretty dirty in the two minutes of driving. I forgot to specify tire pressure, so got 35. They were lower.
