I bought an extension harness like this. Amazon.com: iJDMTOY (2) H11 H8 H9 Extension Wiring Harness Sockets Wires Compatible With Headlights or Fog Lights Use : Automotive

and modified them like this:



So the only wire I added is the black wire that takes ground back from the left side to the right side. I'll try to take some pictures of the harness at some point, but it may not look like much since the connections are covered in heat shrink and flexible tubing.

I will also mention that the aftermarket harness that I bought had the red and black wires reversed from the way Toyota does things, so I had to de-pin them and swap them. You could just use red for ground and black for hot if you didn't want to take the time to do that - or the one you buy may be set up correctly.

You say you only added the black wire, but in your diagram you drew a red loop on the right plug that plugs into the existing harness. It looks like you added a red wire there that loops from black to red on the plug, or am I mis-interpreting things?

I understand all trims on the 22 T4R’s will have these led low/high beam setup.

The Canadian government introduced new lighting laws to curb people who drive "phantom" at night, so maybe this has something to do with it (but I don't really see why it would because don't US limiteds have auto Bi-LEDs?).

The law is that vehicles (as of Sept 2021) must have at least one of the following: automatic headlights; or daylight running taillights; or a dash that isn't illuminated during the day. Toyota elected to put auto headlights in all Canadian 4Runner trims. Not sure if this is the same in the USA.
