I know this is old and dead, but there is now aftermarket companies that have pirated this software and duplicated the cable. Its now for sale on Amazon.com If I bought it ($30) and turned my DRL's off with it, I'd then like to sell it on here for maybe $10 to help someone else do the same... In the spirit of helping others, I'd like to see this equipment be circulated through this forum and anyone else you may know that could benefit from it. Anybody want it after I turn my DRL's off?

To me DRLs are a safety feature, I hope you modified your fog lamps to take the place of DRLs for safety reasons.

A not particularly effective safety feature, at least for passenger cars, according to NHTSA research: http://www-nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov/Pubs/811029.pdf

Ebay has this software work same thing as OEM but you couldn't connect to Toyota server.

It took only a few minutes and it was done. I hope this may help some of you:



Hi,
I have been looking the answer for this one. What version did you use? I don't see "light control" on my version?
Thanks

It's in the custom settings panel. Basically all the things the owner can have changed are in there. Look in your owners manual.

Personally I find that disabling the door lock from park to drive and drive to park very beneficial. As well as setting the lights to instant off when the door opens... I left the DRL swish on as it is brighter than earlier incandescent versions of DRL in earlier models.
