    June 2010 T4ROTM - harper7

    harper7, your truck looks great, but I do have a question. I don't suppose your curiosity got the better of you and you tried to see if the black cover that goes under the top grill (and mostly around the bottom) would fit over the Limited's bumper facade?

    VLed Triton V3 Amber Rear Turn Signal Installation

    Here is my write up for using the 2014 and up harness to make a clean install. If the connections match, you may be able to use the same method.

    Clean VLED Install on 2010-2013 4Runners

    Thanks! I haven't made one, but won't be able to post one till I get a new phone. They still look stock though, but a little brighter and have that nice instant on/off look to them.

    Clean VLED Install on 2010-2013 4Runners

    I brake for no one :-p; either way, fixed in text, too late for the picture.

    Clean VLED Install on 2010-2013 4Runners

    Thanks, looks like from your signature your SR5 has the same paint color as my Limited. The headlights do look good like that, I'll have to post a picture soon. Now if I could just find someone who sales the 2010-2013 taillights with completely clear lenses, I think it would really sharpen...

    Clean VLED Install on 2010-2013 4Runners

    Part 3 and More Part Three: Assemblies Step 1: Remove the insert that covers the taillights from the inside storage area at the far back of your truck. Best if you use a trip tool for this but a flat-head or fingernails do just fine. Step 2: Twist and remove the turn signal from the...

    Clean VLED Install on 2010-2013 4Runners

    Part One: Introduction So, if you are like me and prefer the pre-facelifted taillights on your 5th gen, but still want LED taillights, then this should be right up your alley. You can easily solder wires to the existing twist sockets, but that just looks unprofessional and fragile. So my...

    VLed Triton V3 Amber Rear Turn Signal Installation

    I did full VLED installation front and back with their resistors that plug in the controller. No issues so far, except one of the switch back controllers stopped working, probably just a random dud. I think I'll be able to post a write up on the work I did to tail lights on my 2012 soon. I...

    We have an Air Force base here in Biloxi plus an air port in almost every town and I have no clue where they park the museum pieces around here. Will have to go searching.

    VLed Triton V3 Amber Rear Turn Signal Installation

    I don't know if it is the case, but the plug on the body side for these tail lights look like the same part used in the 2010-present 4Runners. If that's the cause and the wiring is the same, you may be able to make this cleaner by buying the pig tail from the 2014 and up and modifying it with...

    2014 LED tail lights

    Well, I answered my own question. I wanted to do a VLED install into my 2010-2013 and did determine the a minor modification was needed to use the 2014 and up harness for the reverse lights. I modified the other plugs for the VLED lights. Made a much cleaner install than soldering to the...

    I wonder if they have anything like that here in Biloxi/Ocean Springs MS. I think we just have the big casinos. Just not Vegas big.

    You will have to explain the term "local pams", not familiar.
