    So I bought these headlights and installed them. However I'm confused as to whether or not my Tacoma is considered w/ DRLs or w/o. I have a knob inside the cab that says DRL and it turned the inner ambers on with the stock headlights but with these new ones it just turns on the lower amber turn signals rather than the white 3 striped inner lights where the old ambers used to be. The instructions I attached have two installation instructions for w/ or w/o but having that I have that knob for DRLs, the stock connectors don't match what the new light has. So the w/o instructions match up to what the stock connectors are and that's how I installed them. For the w/o installation they also came with a black two headed connector that attached to the left and right new headlight and a blue acc wire... What do I do with the blue acc wire? Where and how do I install that. I hope this makes sense. Please look at the file I have attached. Thanks for your help

    So, your SR would be considered the "without" DRL option. They really should say "without LED DRL". So you will use page 3. As to where to run the blue wire (wiring 1), one side will plug int the headlight, while the side with the blue wire will need to be run to an ignition controlled fuse. Here is a post I did some time ago kind of explaining how to get a wire into there, and which fuse to use.

    Using a fuse tap (if the headlights didn't come with one, they are available on Amazon for not much money) works, but just be aware the DRL will be on whenever the truck is running, even if you turn the stalk to "off". Not a big deal, just don't want you to think they are broke.
