    Here is a wiring diagram for the 2018 sequoia headlights on the 2nd gen tundras. A 4 pin relay will need to be added for the Hi side “bright” drl’s to work as factory and the thin gray wire at the drl control unit #5 will need to be depinned or cut. A wire will need to be ran from the drl control unit to the relay under the hood to #85 at relay.

    So all we need to get is the headlights and the lower filler panel ? Do the headlight and park/turn sig plugs work ? Just need to do the rewire for the drl’s ?
    Next on the list !!!!

    I see that spyder is making a nice looking set of lights for the 18 sequoia and at around $350 a set that may be an option as long as the wiring is the same

    So obviously they didn't change the body style much with the Sequoia. If you don't mind me asking what would it set me back to do this project? Looks great man :thumbsup:

    Cost? The OEM parts alone are killers.
    [​IMG]
    Plus the harness and the work Roger has put in it only adds to it.

    Thank you again for diving into this, and proving it can be done.

    I have a question about the headlight leveling function when you get to that point.
    For full functionality, does it appear that 2007-2009 models (models without existing wiring for auto-leveling headlights) need to retrofit in such a system in order to position the headlight beams correctly?
    FGkouki has his tutorial here for anyone interested on how he added them: http://www.tundratalk.net/forums/tu...rofit-level-motor-system-into-07-09-easy.html
    Or do believe these can be adjusted manually from outside the vehicle?

    I know for a fact my headlights will need to be adjusted once installed, and with no auto-leveling wiring pre-existing in my truck (2007) to adjust the beams has my scratching my chin.

    The auto leveling will not work since the 2018 has a separate control unit for them to function using a outside sensor but they do have a outside adjustment as any normal headlight
