    It could also be the pattern... flood or spot?

    Thank you. I'm very happy with it. Now I'm wanting to build drawer slides / platform now...

    Finally found the correct wiring diagram for my model Tacoma to wire cruise control. My truck is not prewired for cruise. I bought the parts from eBay and tried the Rostra instructions but my trucks wiring harness somehow matched the 05' harness, and that is what had me halt the previous install- the harness on my 11' didn't match the pictures. I relocated the horn wire, I've read others installed cruise and didn't do that part.... Anyway I'm happy to have it working, it even works with the clutch disengage too.

    *Here's the plug I connected my cruise wire to from the steering column- YELLOW cruise. BLUE - Clutch disengage.

    Thanks for the love @Kemosabe. I searched for a long while for the right one. I plan to build a drawer platform with homemade drawer slides. Here's ideas I like so far and I think I'll combine the designs-

    We will see. The mechanism seems solid but the plastic handle does feel a little frail to be honest. I bet if it was covered in ice and you tried jarring on it it would crack easy. Im lucky to live in a part of Texas where it rarely freezes so I think it'll last a while.
