Disable DRLs...Which wire?

My 2000 Tacoma doesn't seem to correspond to the TSB or other threads I can find. My DRL module is under my dash above the gas pedal (at least I think that's it :confused: ). The connector (D8) has these wires coming in...http://prosgetpaid.com/tacodrl.html

So is Pin #2 (the one I'm supposed to cut) the black w/orange stripe? or the purple w/yellow stripe?

I've read that a 2000 4Runner had a black w/yellow stripe. I would have thought the 2000 Tacoma would have been the same, but....

Help?

Ya....The DRL module is in the same spot on 3rd gen 4runners......I cut pin #2 and it worked fine....but mine wasn't the same color as it said in the tech write up.....Just cut it a few inches back from the connector, that way if it doesn't work, you can splice it back together.

Okay, how do I know which one is the #2 pin. They are not labeled and assuming I just start counting from the outside in, I'll do it if I know which row to concentrate on.

There should be 2 larger pins on either the left or right side of the connector depending on how you look at it. Cut the inner wire.....here are some pics from the tech section.
