    Am I correct these are the ECU's? 2021 Tacoma, location is under the glove box between the middle of it and the passenger side door.

    Asking as I was running wires for my ARB compressor that I am putting under the passenger side seat and the OEM fire wall plug comes out just above and inboard of them and there is no way to get in there to groom the wires unless I unplug and pull them and the glove box. The wires I was able to fish from behind them and down the wire run but they still touch the back of these units.

    Really do not want to pull them I am thing of just using some cable loom and sliding it over the wires for chaffing protection but wanted to make sure of what I am dealing with so I did not overheat and melt something.
