2018 Tundra LED headlight wiring info with diagrams

Yup I agree w u that these LED's are better than stock but not quite retro status. But for having lights come like this from the factory its pretty good. I think the reason why they didnt make it too bright was because the headlights dont have autoleveling so it would blind others. That's why i bought some BD squadron fogs, to compensate for the lighting lol

 

I tried to make a video last night but the lights were so bright the camera on my phone wouldn’t focus. I’ll try to make one during daylight.

 

My camera is doing some weird stuff with the low DRL. It shows it flashing and doing some “night rider” stuff lol. I don’t know how to upload the video. It’s saying the uploaded file does not have allowed extension.

 

I think the weird stuff you're talking about is your camera is catching the flicker rate of a dimmed led. Slower rate/ pulse = dimmer light.

 

So far I’ve found the the pair of 2018 headlight assembly cheapest from Auto Nation Toyota in Austin. Cheaper shipping because I’m in Oklahoma. Total of $585.

 

is that $585 shipped to you? @mikedroof

 

Yes. $585 with shipping. That’s to send to Oklahoma though.

 

that's not bad I paid a lil over $650 shipped @mikedroof

 

I scoured the internet. Probably typed in part numbers in 30 different websites. Also looked for discount codes. That was the best one even without discount code.
Also called local Toyota dealerships and almost laughed at the person on the phone. They were wanting full retail price.

 

Yea, it looks like strobe lights.

 

I’m thinking about buying the OEM LED fogs also. Right now I have LED replacements in the OEM housing.

 

Here is a link to my video. Like I said don’t mind the DRL low flickering. That’s the camera issue.

When I start the truck and turn on the running lights the DRL comes on LOW. Once I release the emergency brake it switches to HIGH. If I turn the running lights off the DRL stay On HIGH. Once the headlights are one the DRL switches to LOW.

Thanks thomasbus337 and everyone for the help. Just got my platinum done this morning.

 

They look awesome

 

I don’t know if it’s the best, but I routed mine here. I had a bunch of other wires I was running and zip tied them to the factory harness. All the wires are tucked up out of the way.

 

Does anyone have a v6 switch back with the new headlight? My v3 look more white then the headlight. Thanks!

 

Nvm the v6 is not out yet.. lol

 

I have the v3 in 5k was woindering if the 6k match up better?

 

Loving it!

 

If anyone is selling platinum headlights let me know.

 

I’ll be selling my platinum headlights in about a week

 

Ok I'm having some issues here. Right headlight and DRL comes on but left headlight and DRL won't come on at all

 

Check your ground wire on that side for the mono.

 

Problem solved! I had my ground switched on my plug that goes to my motocontrol and BAM!! It worked.

 

Pm me a price if you would

 

Hey guys just wondering how hard it was to connect to the gray wire under the steering wheel after you cut it (those that did anyway). There isn't much space under there to work and was wondering if you guys had any tricks to connect it? I'm assuming you all used 16 gauge wire...was there any issue with connecting that thicker wire to the thin gray one you cut under the steering wheel?

 

I used to depin the connector but the last few trucks I’ve done I just used a butt connector with no issues.

 

Dang that is such a tight area to work in....did it take you awhile to get it hooked up? Also how rough can you be with those wires before you mess something up?

 

Nah once you pull the lower panel and kick panel cover you actually have a lot of room and the unit is right there.
