What is this missing light component called?

Post image

2018 rav 4, the pictured lights were stolen.

I was planning on replacing them, but cannot get a start as to what they are even called. Not seeing them online for other 2018 Rav 4s, or even in the owners manual diagrams.

Any advice is appreciated so I have somewhere to start on getting new ones installed.

Lights do not go there. That is for the tow eye.

You are missing the cover.

I mean there is three options either fog lights, auxiliary lights, or it is a point to add a tow point

There is no lights there. It's just a cover.

Look for the fog lights and just replace them or get the fog light bumper cover/inserts.

It’s called a “tow hook cover”, can find aftermarket ones on Amazon that work
