    Got a customers truck in here, 2010 Tacoma, factory bulb is the 4157NA, attempting to do the DTRL delete (with what seems to be not enough information). Ordered these the first time around http://www.ebay.com/itm/151185109870?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT and these https://www.superbrightleds.com/mor...ed-tower-a-type-wedge-retrofit-car/1917/4477/ cant seem to get them to work. As I've read, I get either all amber or all white, I've done the three wire setup, but I think the DTRL's are the issue. Also, how do you get the socket to fit for the factory headlight housing? Maybe I'm over thinking this..... I can't find the three wire plug for the DTRL's (behind the fuse panel) (light green with red tracer) or the box that mounts to the side of the fuse panel to even suggest she has DTRL's. Any in depth information would be greatly appreciated, I saw one guy bought an 1157 instead, seems to make sense, but how do I get the socket to stay in the housing, the tabs aren't right...... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    New to the whole forum thing, but I'm sure I'll figure it out. Thanks

    This guy has what you need. They're pricey but all quality plug and play components! The green wire w red strip terminates in the flasher, under dash behind steering wheel. FYI in my opinion the White / Amber did not look good with the incandescent headlights.

    There are 10k HID's in said truck.
    I can't find this, but given the product from Jumpers, would I still need to do this mod? Also, still getting used to this forum thing, how do I go about contacting Jumpers? Thanks for the help.
