I surely do

Let us know if you get either the horn relay or the rear fog light relay to fit in your DRL slot - I couldn't get either of them to fit in mine due to the protrusions on the relays. Just curious as to whether yours fit ok.

Mine wasn't a perfect fit but I did get it in.

aaaaand it didn't work

sav · 01-31-2014, 03:35 AM

Told you.

Vladror · 01-31-2014, 04:11 AM

wait, is the car supposed to be running when doing this, or is switching the lights on good enough?
i had to have my right headlight replaced.. so maybe it's wired 'properly'

Depends on when it was replaced but very possible. Car switched on, headlights off, handbrake down.

The Horn relay or the Rear fog light relay does fit, you just need to fiddle and jiggle around a bit for it to get in.

And surprisingly, releasing the hand brake actually turns on the DRL!!! lol...

I tried that and was told neither the horn nor the rear fog relay were Toyota part numbers. I'm guessing you'll have to go to Subaru instead.
