So I grabbed the new Tacoma Lifestyle LTX fang lights and removed a bezel (pain in the ass broke a clip) only to find out…I can’t find the wiring harness they show in their install video. I saw another commenter mention the same for their Iforce Max as well. Is anyone aware if the wiring harness for the headlights is different for the hybrid? Sucks because they don’t state anywhere on their site a lack of compatibility.

I have hybrid. I installed the RTX lights. The harness that comes with the lights plugs into the back of your head lights. Unplug your head lights. Plug in the Tacoma Lifestyle harness. Plug headlight into the pass through on Tacoma Lifestyle harness. Plug Fang lights into the connector at the tail end of Tacoma Lifestyle harness. Make sure you have the color you want selected before putting bumper back on.

Yeah I installed driver side. Didn’t remove the bumper because they mentioned it was possible just a bit more difficult to remove the bezels. Looked for the harness that looks identical and I’m not sure why I’m not seeing it lol

i was worried about removing my bumper. Never took off a bumper before. It was easier than I expected with all the guides it went smoothly. There’s so much in the way I’m not sure how to tell you look for it. It could be behind and blocked by so much. Since their bumper was cut up I imagine it was possible for them.

I see a 6 pin connector is all weird.

I remember passenger side being a bit easier than driver. I’m not sure about the number of pins in the connector but you got it! You’re a champ!! Which version did you go with? RTX/LTX/ITX?

LTX but might be a return at this point

I also can't find where to plug in the LTX. Can anyone provide a picture of where the connection point is if they have been able to find it?

My thought would be to install it into the turn signal connection.

Not sure if that is the correct location or not.

Is the connector not the same as what’s in the headlight? I just unplugged the headlight and that’s that worked for me.

Well that could be the cause of the confusion. Im assuming there is another plug other than then the one for the turn signal. Is that what you plugged yours into? Or is there another plug?

I’m not sure about a turn signal plug. About the middle I found a connector that matched the fang light connector.

Ok good to know. Not sure if The trailhunter oem lights differ at all. I see two housings which I assume would connect to the headlight. One being a white plastic piece with multiple cords and another being a smaller black piece. Neither looked like they would match what Tacoma lifestyle provided. I might try plugging it into the turn signal as this is the only adapter that I have found to match the same prong set up.

I hadn't considered the different lights. Its unfortunate that the Pro/TrailHunter/Other Trims aren't all 1:1.

Definitely unfortunate. Update though: It seems like for the trd off road plugging it into the turn signal bulb works..
