I did some research on the Prius a while back. Toyota offers $200 to recyclers / junk yards for old Prius batteries.

Views on yarisworld are skewed toward Yaris, naturally. If you want another point of view, check out www.priuschat.com. It'll be skewed in the other direction, but at least you'll get better Prius information and can make a better informed decision. Best of luck and let us know how it goes.
