I did something similar using a quadratic drl harness. I just spliced into the blinker circuit in the harness and made a t harness. I’m not a fan of taps, or touching the factory harness at all.
I remember you telling me that. This is a simple plug at the fender that runs the three wire options from the harness that's easily reversible if so desired. No tap or messing with the factory harness other than the plug.

Same here. It’s a nice way to do things in my opinion.

Wish I had known you were gonna do this. There is a wiring harness that's plug n play that attaches to the plug behind the fender. It has 3 wires coming off of it that are marked for turn, DRL and running lights. No splicing or tapping wires. Clean and simple install. Did that with mine.

Interesting. You're right. I know the one I purchased from them works with LED lights because that's what my truck has. I don't see it on their website now. Maybe they don't make it anymore. Who knows. Nice catch.

Installed side marker lights, but I followed the guide from morimoto, tapped into the white/brown wire and that is....not...the blinker light. It's a parking light.
The lights come on when you start the truck, then turn off after like 30 seconds moving forward.

Nice lights, just wish I had a correct diagram of which wire the blinker is so I don't have to start poking holes everywhere.
Wiring diagrams are in the Collection of Manuals, Torque Settings, etc.

Thanks. I had scoured that list but didn't even see that one.

I think I'll do this. I'm going to have to take it all apart anyway. Definitely wish I knew about it before I messed with the wiring. I hate taps, and I hate touching factory wiring. Thanks!

@ShadowsPapa can probably hook you up. I'll see if I can find the old thread with that discussion. There was a couple but that was over a year ago so might be hard to search for.
I actually found that thread but it just confused me more lol.

I'm not sure if you have LED lights or not but that link says it does not work with LEDs. I know they make one because I have it on my truck but I could not find it last night so make sure you get what's right for your setup.

I do have factory LEDs, and I had just noticed that as well. I sent them a message. Do you have your invoice somewhere that might have a model number on it?

That's a great question and I thought about it myself. I started thinking maybe I ordered the non-led but it worked but I have no idea. I'll check when I get home and see if I can find out some more information for you and let you know.

This one works great from quadratic. I have LED.

Here is a picture of the correct wire for the blinker circuit, marked with purple sharpie.

Complete detail and paint correction…

No, foam wash, degrease, polish, and wax really. Pretty good for less than 3 hour investment.

OK so here's the scoop. Apparently I'm a bonehead. So I found my invoice and the part number on the invoice is the same as the part number listed on their website that states it's for non LED headlights. I guess I missed that when I placed my order. But the harness works flawlessly with my LED headlights. I guess I got lucky. Either that or they updated the harness and not the description. Who knows. I actually called them today on my break to see if I could get more information about the harness listed but the person that answered the phone didn't have an answer. She gave me another number to call for technical issues but I didn't get around to calling the other number. It's also interesting that the price is $10 less now than what I paid back in March. Sorry I don't have any other information that can help you.
