But mine is < 2013.
 
I have a 2012... I thought the drl and high beams ran off of the same bulb

Maybe you are confusing drl with something else? The drls are at the corner of the headlight

I'm not sure if you can tell but when I turn on my drl, the attached picture is what it looks like. I'm not sure if you can see the illumination due to the sunlight, but it comes from the high beam bulb. Please ignore my finger.

From your picture, your drl looks like its coming from the corner of the headlight assembly.

Yeah that's pretty weird. Mine is a base as well, with halogen lowbeams. Maybe the drl is different, mine is at the tip of my finger and just behind it is the plug you see in the previous post

This whole time, I thought everyone was running the same drls for the 2010-2013 models. It's easier for wiring purposes to have your style drls. I had to get an anti-flicker module to run leds for the high beam/drl lights to work correctly.

Well anyone with the high beam drls know how to wire the raptor lights to come on with the drl only?
 
I hate fedex. Stuck on this for over four hours.

*edit* Never arrived. Ugh.

I have a 13 and my drl's are like yours. If you hook up to the drl's won't the raptor lights turn off when your headlights come on? The drl's aren't on when my headlights are on. Personally, I would wire them to a switched fuse in the fuse panel so that they come on anytime the truck is running and turn off when I shut the truck off, no switch.....no muss.....no fuss. ;)

Thats exactly what I was going for, I want the raptor lights to come on and off with the drls.

Wiring the raptor lights to the drl fuse is probably the easier route to go since it'll take longer to figure out which wire powers the drl. I thought I would ask to see if anyone already knew which wires were specifically for the drl.

PS. Plus, if I can I prefer to leave the stock fuse box alone if possible.

An add-a-fuse is the easiest thing to wire in........

Hey guys!

Thanks so much for the comments, pics and shop talk!

We *will* get a video posted soon and give a bit more step-by-step instruction on the light install, but you are all on the right track!

In regards to the guys that have shipping damage (and we've had a handful) we have new replacements being packed (even better!) and shipping out this week (most likely tomorrow). If you've had an issue, you've more than likely gotten an e-mail / response from us however you contacted us. If you have an issue (whatever it is) feel free to drop a DM with your name, Order # and pics of the damage/concerns.
 
Ohhh have you thought of making them for a 1st gen tundra/sequoia?

Already done.

Pre-production samples are here. Inventory in about 3 weeks. 🤙
