    I think this is hood courtesy switch connector. If equipped, you will get a Hood Ajar warning on your center didplay

    No it’s a very basic model, that’s what I was thinking originally but I’m a new owner so I’m learning!

    Maybe that is where I would plug fogs in?

    Good thing about Toyota is that they still have harness even if package is not there . Which means, you can add after market as wiring is already there! My dads truck came without bed lights and I just got 2 of them on amz for 32$ , plugged in and now he has bed light.

    That plug doesn’t look like it was original. See if it’s live or switched and figure out how you can use it. I guess the truck is not new?

    No...it's to both fogs. Missing harness that mates to it has a Y.

    Yeah, as caribe said. Goes to a jumper harness that connects to each fog. I found that when I installed my grille light bar and followed the harness to see where it went.

    I did the same thing, mine didnt come with bed lights but i bought them cheap and installed them myself.

    Is there any other threads that have a full list of harnesses that are ready to plug in?

    I have a 2022 Limited, would like to see what bells and whistles i am missing

    Off the top of my head, that you can use.

    Power tail gate lock, trailer brake controller, long range remote start (junk), factory dash cam splices in so it doesnt count, comfort plus has a cabin heater that uses factory harness.

    There is likely connectors for the offroad and pro model that dont carry over due to the different overhead controls, diff lock and abs unit.

    Tail gate lock is all I'd recommend.

    There are actually quite a few of those on an SR. If you order or salvage yard a headlight stick switch that has fog lights on it. The connector to plug it in is up under your dash, zip tied out of the way. Same with mirror turn signals and power seats and every other option, as far as I know. At least it was on my work truck.
