    Does your 2020 SR5 have the Cargo Lamp switch?

    Excellent! If you like, contact @kmorgan3 and purchase a custom harness that includes the purple wire branch or T-tap it.
    And do this:

    upload_2021-2-13_15-3-22.jpg
    https://www.summitracing.com/parts/dnp-567-0004
    Add a fuse to an always "hot" circuit. Use the Dome fuse.
    Add the relay to the add-a-fuse.
    Wire coming from the add a fuse pins 30 & 86 of the relay.
    Pin 87 to the light bar white wire.
    Pin 85 to the purple wire on the D35 Cargo Lamp connector.

    P.S. Remove the vehicle battery negative terminal BEFORE you work on those wires.

    Yeah that’d be easy. I even have spare relays and fuse taps. Only thing going through the firewall would be the wire to the accessory.

    Thanks for the link up with kmorgan!

    Thank you again for all your help!

    was able to get the wiring finished up with the custom wire harness thanks to @kmorgan3.
    The wiring harness was a bridge from the cargo light, the “DOME” fuse and the led itself.

    turn signals were tapped into the blue and yellow wire as advised.

    the red wire used an add a fuse to the “TAIL” fuse

    The courtesy light was wired to the custom harness which plugged into the cargo light, from there an add a fuse was connected to the “DOME” fuse.

    grounded to a factory bolt.


    Once again, big thanks to @caribe makaira and @kmorgan3 for helping me figure this out. The lights work perfectly as advertised.

    If you had one of these:
    upload_2021-2-28_20-13-49.jpg
    The turn taps would be as easy as the cargo lamp circuit tap.
    Still waiting on @kmorgan3 to assemble n sell them...:popcorn:
    Works for other mods that need turn taps. (like SR adding mirror turns, or OR & Pro headlights.)

    Did you ever find the terminals for that thing?

    Also, props to @kmorgan3 and @caribe makaira for making this happen! I know it sounds weird, but I love seeing this forum beginning to implement more plug and play ideals. Actually seeing some of Caribe's drawing come to life :thumbsup:

    I've been trying to figure this out for about a week doing same to my 18 TRD SPORT. Only solution I found was DomeRockV4. Does this cancel the need for that as long as I follow above instructions? I'm all about supporting the group but if all that $60 piece is a $15 relay in fancy box then.... Idk man. @kmorgan3 do you have a harness to make this happen and if so how much please? Don't mind cutting wires but why do it if you don't have to

    I'll shoot you a PM. I think the dome rock works for this (I have only read about it briefly) but the $60 is just for the module. You'd need to use t-taps according to the website. I see a splitter for MESO's breakout harness but I don't seen a full plug-and-play option with that IN1 harness included.

    There are no turn signal circuit wires going to the IN1.:burp:

    I think he’s referring to the cargo light courtesy lights only. If he wants the blinkers as well I can see about assembling that turn signal mirror harness finally.

    He can achieve the same thing with the Cargo Lamp T harness, no need for that $60.00 DSIM module.
