Default 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid Headlights

I had a small car accident in late November and body shop has car 70% done but one of the parts is still unavailable from Honda dealerships.
It is a passenger side headlights. Apparently, hybrids are using some special headlights which are very low in supply at the moment.
If anyone has any info on supplier who has them or even a wreck-yard who might have compatible vehicle, please let me know.
My insurance rental coverage has expired, so now I pay out of my pocket (for rental I do not like to drive :-), so I want my Accord back ASAP.
Thanks!

Is it the bulb or the plastic headlight housing?

I believe it is the actual bulb. I will get more details from the body shop tomorrow and add to the thread.

It is the passenger side headlight with assembly. They told me they were able to get it but tonight the body shop manager called and said Honda has it on back order between April and July and he can only get a aftermarket part now.
Apparently. hybrid has a bluish shade of light and regular do not, so he suggested installing aftermarket until Honda original arrives and they would replace it for free then, but I need to cover the cost of aftermarket part (~$500).
I got the Honda Hybrid P/N: 33100-T3V-A51
There seem to be quite a few of these online but manager said they could not get guaranties they are indeed Honda original and if they would match the other headlight bluish color shade, so he advised waiting for Honda part.
