For those in need of a wiring harness who are considering the alternative (i.e., an aftermarket "custom" harness)...
- I've personally installed one of these myself, and several weeks of work later, I can tell you it was *absolutely NOT* painless.
- Lots of time spent reverse engineering the original system, then planning, routing, cutting, splicing, wrapping, testing, diagnosing...
- It was tedious and sometimes confusing and a LOT of work (and I am an electrical engineer, lol!).
- In the end, the only thing "custom" about that harness was the customizations I had to do to install it into a vehicle it wasn't really designed for.
- The real kicker... I spent more than twice my asking price on it when all was said and done... and it's not as good or as valuable as an ORIGINAL TOYOTA in good condition!

In the interest of full disclosure, I do need to make a couple of statements about the harness:
1) There is one switch w/ knob that IS included in the sale, but that is not in the pix (hazard switch). I'm not certain if every last dash switch is included; please see pictures (the knobs are not included).
2) One jumper wire was noted in the rear harness. I almost considered leaving it out of the sale based on this, but it can be left as is, or repaired easily (or I may do it for a small charge).
3) IIRC, I had to cut the wires to the recessed dash light (in the soft pad): I could not get the recessed light out. This should be an easy repair, and should not compromise the quality.
4) Please do not expect that the harness is new or perfect; just in very good, serviceable condition (unlike most harnesses out there at this point).

Finally, a couple of disclaimers:
1) Sold As-is. If the buyer finds an obviously pre-existing flaw in the harness that I was not aware of, I will do my best to work it out with them in a fair way.
2) I cannot warrant that the harness works perfectly, because I do not know that for certain. (Plus I can't control how it will have been handled and installed: whether it was ever improperly connected or connected to bad components.)
3) I will not be held responsible for any consequential damage for any reason.
4) I will however guarantee that the harness is as-described or I will refund the purchase price upon its return.
