HOW-TO: Foglight Modification for Tundras WITHOUT Daytime Running Lights

[nhparrot]

Instructions for Tundra's without DRL's:

1. Remove the (4) 10mm bolts that hold on the lower dash panel. Now with a little effort, the panel will pull out. The lower dash panel has 4 spring clips near the top where it connects to the upper part of the dash. Gently pull and pry until they snapped out. Let it hang down.
2. Remove the panel with the fog light switch and the panel light dimmer switch, by pulling towards you. Only clips hold this in.
3. On the backside of the fog light switch, cut the red wire with a yellow tracer, about 2 inches towards the harness.
4. Tape off the cut end (harness side) so that no shorts will occur.
5. Locate the green wire on the back of the panel light dimmer switch. Use a 3M Scotchlok connector or strip the wires a little and solder and tape them to connect the red wire with the yellow tracer, coming out of the fog light switch, to the green wire.
6. Test lights and re-install panels.

Modified 04-03-2002 by IZL after a long discussion with DudeBoy regarding the "Method 2" which involved rewiring the lamp inside the Fog Light Switch. This lamp rewire was the source of some "unusual" effects on the Fog Relay, and has subsequently been deleted.
