    Is this the only plug end associated with this light? The new one appears to have 2 plugs, each containing 2 prongs. You have provided M10 information. Looks like i can tap into any red and green or just put a new aux relay bux under my hood and pull constant power from it.

    The other plug i assume is the signal for door open/closed. I think i am going to put yhis thibg on the bench and jump 12v across the m10 terminals to see if it lights up. If it does, then i have no need for the other pens i presume.

    Ideally, i would find a way to pull in an auxiliary relay under the hood when any door is opened and run back to it. Just dont believe there is anything that can support the current draw of an auxiliary relay.

    What I see on the picture is that there are 2 options to provide power to light. Toyota most "likely" has that part (lamp) to fit other models. 4Runner, Corolla, etc.

    and again, do not use the red or green wires to door lock solenoid.

    Update. 12v across the two larger pins does activate the projector. Now to figure out which wires are hot ONLY while door is open

    Where did you get these drawings? I need a whole set for the truck

    I need to know where m13 is so i can tap into violet FLCL connection for (-) and the Wh/rd from dome light for (+)

    Edit: i guess this m13 is my main harness. I doubt that will be easy to access for tapping in to. And dome cut relay isnt an accessible relay. I guess i can try to find the Wh/rd and get it to pull in a physical relay but then i need to mount a relay box

    Check M13 & L13 to see if wire at least make it to them. If so, then a tap will be very easy. Running the wire through door connector is another feat.

    Im still trying to figure out how to wire in these lights on a truck without the package.

    I do have a harness made now though.
    M13 is behind a white plastic plate. Seems hard to access

    It'll take you a long while, but yes.

    Pulled constant 12v from green wire i showed earlier. Used purple from door closed to hit signal to relay coil to close.

    I wouldn't duplicate this for anyone. You've tapped into a signal wire.:facepalm:

    The truck is still recognizing the door open and close. I only used the purple signal wire to tell the relay to pull in. It has no draw on it. The constant 12 is what is pulling the coil in.

    Its Like this.

    If you are referring to the actual lights then look in Etsy. I bought one for trd off-road and it was an easy swap.
