My 2022 T4R

Been also running this mod for a while with no issues. The nice thing about it is its completely reversible. No wiring has been altered. I’m just planning to buy another set of hp48 bulbs before they run out or get discontinued in the future.

 

Hello,
I have a '22 TRD ORP with OEM exhaust. I prefer a side exit exhaust to eliminate the rotten egg stench and have an appointment with a muffler shop to have a bend put in to re-route the end so it side exits vs. back exit. How might one come by a Pro side exit? Did a perfunctory search with no luck.
Thanks and sorry to jack your thread.

 

I don’t think Toyota sells the TRD Pro Tip by itself. You can search eBay or forums like this for used ones. Or you can settle for the genuine Toyota clamp-on tip. Its round and it has a toyota logo instead of TRD and get it welded.

Thanks but looking for the side exit part of the TRD Pro pipe. Not just the tip.

 

looks like my next mod

 

So even though the packaging on these bulbs say plug and play I have to get the harness extensions and ground one of them to the inside of my engine bay?

 

Exactly.

 

Yes. To supply them with 12v.

 

Seems like I should understand this better but are these 3 wires all connected? BTW this is a great looking mod.

Thanks in advance!

 

And I’m sorry but where does that clamp on the ground wire come from? Because I ordered both these harnesses from Amazon and neither one of them have that gold clamp. I’m super confused.

 

That’s what she said!!

Sorry….I couldn’t resist.

 

The black wire was spliced to the blue wire on the other connector. It was either just a black wire with that connector crimped on that came from a scrap harness or he crimped it on himself. It would not have come with the parts from Amazon.

 

Yes they are connected. The red and black are shorted together to provide power to the passenger side and also to the pink wire, that will travel to the other side. The bulb on the driver side is already grounded. Nothing to touch in the driver side bulb.

 

Its a scrap grounding terminal that i found in the garage. You can get one at any autozone, or homedepot.

 

I have another connector for sale if someone needs. All u need is diode dynamics bulbs.

 

I just bought an inferno & it doesn’t have the TRD exhaust. Doubt the 2020+ fits but haven’t done the research. I’m def adding the TRD exhaust - anyone selling one in Denver? Love to have one on my inferno

 

Made my harness thanks to this write up you did. So much better. Thanks!

 

I’ll buy it. Can I Venmo? Sorry if you received numerous messages from me… the page kept refreshing

 

Made my harness, did everything I saw in this forum and still only one bulb lights up.

 

Post a pic of your harness showing what wires you connected just to double check

what color are the wires in the oem connectors that connect to the bulbs, on both driver and passenger side?

 

Made my harness yesterday, thank you for figuring this out and posting it. Much appreciated !!!!!

 

Got this done today. Looks great! thanks for all the help.

 

@jev425 I’m not going to post anything to double check. I’m an adult and know how to follow directions. I turned my 4Runner on and went into the engine bay and the driver side lit up, I touched the grounding terminal to where I was going to bolt it and the passenger side lit up. I turned the car off, bolted it, turned the car on and only the driver side lit up. I’m just going to return these Diode Dynamic bulbs and put the stock bulbs back in but leave them unplugged. Best.

 

If anyone has an extra one of these harnesses already made and laying around they would sell me can you shoot me a message? I was going to order and build one but if someone has one....

 

I don’t really know what you’re doing wrong but lets recap. You have a 22 4Runner with LED headlamps right? Your HI and LO beams are coming from 1 bulb which are the 2 outer bulbs right?

If you follow the connection of the harness and find a good and secure grounding spot. I don’t think there will be a problem.

Also, if you decide not to move forward with the mod, don’t leave them unplugged. Just turn them off.

 

In my 2021 TRD ORP I just did a straight replacement of the factory DRL bulbs with Alla Lighting PZ20d fog light & DRL LED bulbs:

They have been in for a few months with no issues. I measured the voltage at the connector at ~5 volts and the LED bulbs I put in seem to be operating just fine.

 

If they don’t flicker, those are good option instead of adding a sub-harness.

looks like VLEDS has a potential product that can help too
from the description these have dual mode, at 8V, it's DRL, at 12V it's full on high beam

on the Pros and Limited, we never get the full 12V as high beams, so the 8V DRL mode should work fine.

 

Hi there. Any member on here have a harness that they are not using? If so, I will buy it. Thanks in advance.

 

I was going to ask… why not just put in a 9005 led even if it’s a little bit dimmer at only 6V? I don’t need a super bright DRL. But now you have me wondering… is flicker the larger issue and not just a dimmer bulb?
