A couple of quick questions for ya'll.

1. Does anyone know what size bulb is used for the reverse lights on a 3rd gen?
2. What are some websites that have a good selection of side marker lamps?
3. For those of you that have installed stock side markers on your 4Runner (Mercedes, Lexus, Audi, etc) could you help me out with the install. The Audi ones that I am interested in have a wiring harness, instead of a couple of wires like others do. I don't want to order them from the Audi dealership and then not be able to use them. Anyone know how difficult the wiring is when dealing with a harness?

Thanks guys. Later.

Matt:


I thought you had the side markers done.

www.autotoys.com has a good selection of side markers.

Look in the tech section here about doing side markers.

The reverse bulbs are 7440

Paul,
I haven't done them yet. I'm still trying to decide which ones to go with. I ordered some that looked to be very similar to the ones used on all of the new Audis, but they turned out to be pretty cheaply built and did not really look like the pic the website showed. The Audi sidemarker has a wiring harness which attaches to it, instead of just a power and ground wire. I'm also unsure of how the stock Audi sidemarkers mount to the fender (press fit, screws in, etc). The Audi sidemarker lamps are like $35 each and the wiring harnesses are $15 each, so I wanted to see if anyone had installed another car company's side markers before I spent $100 and changed my mind. I believe there was a guy on here that installed some Mercedes side markers on his 4Runner. In the meantime, I'm trying to find an easier option if you will on the internet somewhere. I always come back to those Audi ones though because I think they are sharp as hell.
