    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    i'll dig and see what the wiring looks like behind the fuse box. should just be contained to the one connector.. maybe a 2nd.

    Forgive my ignorance but I don't know how this works, I just read on page 1 or 2 about having the stock corner/marker lights also act as a turn signal. I'm about to replace my grill, which includes removing the spliced in wires to the corner lights so the previous owner could have raptor lights in the grill.

    How exactly does this box of yours work? And how would I wire it in to have my corner/marker lights also function as turn signals. And would I still maintain the stock turn signal function?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes you stock turn signals work like normal. It uses the same bulb as turn signal and marker light. It does require a new wire be run to each turn signal to controller box.

    Which function do you want?
    I've designed and built a controller for using a single light as a turn signal and marker light.
    Also incorporated a time delayed and dimming rate for theater, mud, exit lights or interior lights.
    3 versions available:
    1. Turn signal and theater lights $80.00+ shipping
    2. Turn signals only $45.00 + shipping
    3. Theater lights 45.00 + shipping

    Nice. Is post #26 showing me how to wire it all up? And you just bolted the controller under the lower dash, correct?

    Thanks for the answers.

    All Lasfit amber leds, currently using modded 1157 sockets in corners and 3157 sockets in bumper. Just purchased but haven't installed led relay from Amazon, will that effect the flashing function from your control unit. I plan on installing rear turning Lasfit led ambers.
    My ultimate goal is to run DRL both pairs always on in the front and flash when I signal.
    Aim running
    I guess turns only.

    I'm running smoked housings in the corners and bumpers

    You don't need relays with any modern switchback controller

    Are they switchback led lights? either way you'll need the led flasher.

    Non switchbacks, all amber leds, I'm going more for the JDM style.

    Led flasher? Meaning I do need to install the led relay switch?

    This is what I bought and installed.
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-replace-your-turn-signal-relay.518338/
    So you are saying I'll need this relay in conjunction with your controller, I figured for my rear 1156 turning to work without hyper flashing since the lasfit ones I have are not canbus error free model
