Help with Drl switchbacks

my 2008 Tacoma has day time running lights and I was wondering if someone on here could help me get them working with my switch back LEDs I ordered. Anyone else figured this out?

 

you need resistors for the led if not they will hyper flash

 

I have the switch backs as well and u will need resistors cause again it will blink real fast

 

if you bought the switch back it should come with resistors. if not I think autozone has them. I had a tapper so I instead of splicing the wire its was one of those tappers where you put the dtlr wire in one end and resistor on the other end and clamp them down and done

 

@tacoshin can you post pictures of your setup?

 

@bqnguyen07 u have a08??? It's not gonna work on your truck. I tried doing it for my buddy's 09 and it didn't work it works for the 2012 and up

 

Snap my bad guys if I remember correct if your dtrl works or has that option on your truck. Like says daytime or dtrl then it should work but my buddy's truck his 09 doesn't have that written on his so he couldn't do it on his truck but I think there is a relay for it I hope someone on tw with 08 would chime in.

 

This is what you need to crimp your resister to your blinker lightthe one on the left goes on resister the right goes on your wire harness for the blinker bulb. It's a tight squeeze but do able. Once u get the right on to the wire everything else is a breeze

 

@bqnguyen07 I'll do it tomorrow my kids sleeping and don't wanna drop the hood since it's loud. But u guys can use led but don't know about switchback un less there is a relay that will be able to do it or unless u have that drl like the above pic

 

My 08 doesn't have that drl option. I saw on another thread that someone with a 1strong gen ran a wire from their fusebox into the 3rd hole on the drl sockethe to get their switchbacks to work. I've got tappers, resistors, and fuse adapters. I'm now stumped because I'm not sure which wires need to be tapped in order for the white LED to come on

 

let me see if I can find something

 

@bqnguyen07 try returning it or selling your switchback kit but before that I would check out VLEDs.com they have the switch back and I would contact them and see if it will work on the 08 Tacoma because I know that 08 and up to 2012 they don't have that option of drl like as pictured. and they might have a relay that comes with it or something. but other than that bro I have nothing else I can find to help out sorry

 

No worries. Ill check with them. Thanks for your help!
