Does anyone know where this plugs into?

The white plug on the left was also unplugged in the engine bay as well, what is their purpose? Thanks.

that metal box is a day time running light relay, if u unplug it it disables the system so you manually turn on your headlight. the plug I have no idea on heres a pic of mine. I also have a 99 Camry Le I4

Many vehicles also use somewhat universal wiring harnesses. All plugs are not necessarily used on all cars depending on options and equipment.

+1

wanted to write same thing.

if car is not equipped with factory installed (not a dealer option which is different) it may be a plug for security horn.

Alright, so the black plug is for a factory alarm horn and the white is for DRL. I must have disconnected the white one to run my HIDs since they will flicker at half voltage. Thanks guys!
