    Hi - I bought my 08' Tacoma, which is a US model, at a dealer in Canada (I live in Canada). They had to do something with the wiring or relay (not sure and could not find out from them) to give me daytime running lights - which is my headlights. I noticed however that all other Tacomas around here have just the orange park lights as the running lights and the headlights are off. My switch does nothing...the lights are just always on when the truck is running. Any ideas how I can have just the park lights for daytime lights? Is it just the relay maybe? I could not find anywhere under the hood that the wires were cut or spliced, etc.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the link. Hopefully that will work...as I wonder what they did so that the lights are always on and that my switch does nothing..or is that normal?
