Hybrid Tailight swap? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I was wondering if anyone did a hybrid tailight swap. I have a highlander SE and wanted to swap them with some hybrids that I found. Has anyone been successful in doing this? I'd like to see some pictures if possible.

Thanks!

Are you asking if they will fit?

Yes, do they fit? Is the wiring different, etc. Thx!

I'm assuming they would be the same.

I believe the tail light housing should fit the same way, but you will need a load resistor installed to stop the hyper-flash because the LEDs draw so little power it tricks the computer into thinking that one (or both) of your bulbs are burnt out, hence the fast flashing. A resistor will create a "load" so that the computer think that there is a normal bulb in there.

v-leds.com, autolumination.com, superbrightleds.com should have the resistors
