    First truck. First Tacoma. How come my daytime running lights are on the “outside” of the headlights as in my picture rather than on the “inside” like every other Tacoma I’ve seen?

    Those lights on your picture are the marker lights, the DRLs are on the inside, perhaps somebody rewired those two lights and switched the wiring around? The marker lights should only be on when the parking or headlights are on.

    Top picture is of the marker light and the bottom picture is of the plug for the lights that light up in my headlights. Two completely different plug ins, so how did they get switched around?
