    Literally the inner part is identical, just rotated 180° out. Were it not for the little 'ears' around the perimeter being different, I'd say you could pull the inner out, flip it, and reinsert :D

    Oh the white inserts, I think they are the same. Maybe camera angle. That’s not the concern at all, at least I don’t think. It’s the outer tabs.

    I think I bought 5 M&F and burned 2 of each for Tundra2, leaving the 3 I have left. And then I have 20 ish of the other style as it’s used in Tacoma rear then and SR front DRL/turn.

    I ended up having to work late this morning and this totally slipped my mind. Sorry about that. You still need a picture @daveeasa?

    Well its snowy and 5 degrees this morning. Afraid I'll snap plastic bits trying to get to that connector this morning. May give it a try later when I get up if no one else is able to determine.

    It would probably be best if I get a photo from @REESE77 's since that's the truck that matters. I don't think they changed up the corner connector or at least not between '01 and '03 but I don't have any way of knowing that for sure.

    The middle pin looks a little bent, if you have some needlenose try to get it straight again?

    I think we lucked out, I think I sent the right ones.

    yeah, I shoved it back the other way. That sounds great. As soon as they arrive I’ll check for fitment
