    hi all.
    so recently my 05 4runner was stolen and recovered a week later.....the tweakers managed to rip out the interior, including the carpeting, console, various panels, dome light, visors, wiper arms(what the f......!?), remote starter controller......but somehow they didnt take the bluetooth stereo or the 500.00 bicycle rack off the back: two things i am greatful for! these werent pros and they obviously didnt own tools......heres where the problems arise. they only had a knife, i guess because all the wiring under the center console was cut,,,instead of unclicking the terminals..ugh.....also several wires were cut on the harnesses going to the back of the car, etc.......so far ive reconnected many wires and am down to a handful of smaller issues.....like no tail lights, and trying to get the center console back up to snuff...which includes getting the parking lock mechanism to work again..................without going all electrical engineer, does anyone know what wire(s) feed the shifter lock(im used to just pushing the little button on the console but would like to fix that? and may some insight to where the various plugs under the console go? im searching for a crashed 4th gen to canabaalize for terminals but so far no luck,,,,,but the interior is basically back together, sans carpetting and rear seats (converted to a "bed" for hauling tools)....i realize this is a convoluted msg but thanks in advance for any help.....yesterday, i was able to install a fast charge usb port....but the tail lights and console wire id would be super helpful!

    I always get a factory service manual. They are like $15 or less on Ebay.

    They have ALL the connectors, ALL connector locations, ALL the wiring, ALL the wire colors, etc.
