    - NSA port?
    - double-secret 3X horsepower connector?
    - free HBO?

    WTF?

    Thanks! :)

    Already filled up the blinker reservoir!

    4WD thing? Like if I apply 12v to my front wheels they'll spin? Cool!

    Piston spring return? I have my daughter's hair ties for that. Fool!

    I do have PW and cruise but this is a harness I didn't disconnect, so ... it's just a-hangin' there.

    No big deal, was just curious is all.

    Let's be serious for just a minute.

    My flux capacitor is *obviously* not squirreled away in a kick panel! Everyone knows it must be installed (and supplied with the proper amount of gigawatts) where it can be observed between the seats.

    DrFunker: Yes but have no idea if it came from Toyota. The hitch harness mostly works, one side doesn't have power, does that count?

    Navel funk, ,most likely, hence my question.

    devinzz1/DrFunker: I do not have that box in sight, yet my cruise does work. (Damn that looks like a huge box.) Again, this is passenger-side, 2004 non-4WD etc.

    I also have that un-used connector in my '99. Its not for CC (that one has many more pins), since your truck has 'throttle by wire', and does not need a separate computer.

    1st Gens never had a "towing package", only dealer installed hitch/wire harness. When the dealer makes the windows sticker they would include this on there for a price

    Only other thing I can think of (I will check mine now that you mention it) is the DRL module/controller (I do not have DRL on my '04)?
