    Hi, I am new at this forum stuff but just bought an '08' Tacoma PreRunner. I wanted to say thanks for the posts on how to fix my driving lights so I could have them on by themselves. The fix of bending the prong on the relay and tapping into the geen wire inside the fuse box worked like a charm. I also took someones idea of putting a driving light inside the recess box in the bed. Can't remember who had pics. but they helped alot. If I can I will post some pics. of the changes. LOVE THE TRUCK! 1957mph

    That's an interesting handle. What's the 1957mph for?
