5th Gen 4Runner Power Folding Mirrors

You would need to run your own wires in order to get the turn signals and puddle lights to work but it is possible. Depends if you are good with electrical or not.

 

Such great teamwork!!!

 

UPDATE:

Well I finished two sets today. One Option 3 Pkg A and One Option 3 Pkg B. They both will go out on Monday to their NEW Owners!

 

When i bought my 2016 4runner limited i told my girlfriend that was the only thing i wish this vehicle had compared to the last car i drove then this thread popped up! This is awesome and looks like you put a lot of work into it.

Im looking to purchase the Option 3B as i have the puddle lights and turn signal mirrors. I noticed in the thread you state this is a plug n play option. I was reading also one of the posts that said you have to connect the wires from the passenger side and driver side etc...
What and where do the wires run to and from? I just don't want exposed wires and cords, trying to make the car look as clean as possible.

Also do you provide instructions on how to remove and install the mirrors etc?

Any chance you can upgrade the puddle lights to LED while your exchanging the core for me since it'll be opened up already?

And any bad experiences with winter and the mirrors freezing, unable to fold out? wouldnt want the motor to just keep running and burn itself out.

 

These are some great questions. Kit is Plug-N-Play. Working on getting the PNP Harness as well. Still need someone that has the actual 4Runner to let me know if there is a constant 12V in this Harness or not...



I would like to add it if there is one before I some of these made by my vendor. Then this kit will be 100% Plug-N-Play just like the Tacoma. You run the Wire either through the Dash or under the Carpet to the other side. That is up to you. It is hidden though so nothing is seen. It will definitely look OEM. I do include Instructions for you to go Step-by-Step whether it is DIY or just the Mirror Install and the finishing up Wiring project. So no worries there. I am able to switch out the Puddle Lights for you while I have the Lights open for you. I just ask that you cover the cost of the new LEDs. As far as the winter goes, all you have to do is push your fold button in and when you unlock your 4Runner in the morning your Mirrors will not Unfold as well. They will not unfold until you manually push the unfold button again on the switch. The switch has priority at all times. Therefore, if you have a automatic starter, start your 4Runner in the morning, let it warmup, and then when you get in to go, you should be able to hit the button for your mirrors and off you go.

 

I know your were looking for info on the constant 12v source in the wiring harness, and I have a suggestion, even though it directs you to another forum.
This forum is dedicated to electrical components and topics of vehicles.

Maybe someone there can give you the answer your need.

 

i have a 2016 limited (turn signals and puddle lights) and i'm interested in option 1. where can i view the complete DIY.

 

Ok. Thank You!

 

When you ask about viewing the complete DIY, are you wanting to see the full start to finish process or just what is included in the kit?

 

just what's in the kit.

 

UPDATE:

I just wanted to send kind of an update with what has been going on in my life so that people are kind of aware that have been waiting for shipments. Not that I have to but just so that people know when I don’t respond, it might be that maybe something came up unexpectedly and to maybe just hold a second and I will for sure get back to you. I normally am known to reply and ship right away and if that doesn’t happen, something usually is happening with my family and that takes priority over everything. That or my actual job. So here is my update:

In light of the above, on December 18, 2019 my neighbor was in a tragic accident that ended his life on December 28, 2019 after the family had to make the tough decision that nobody ever wants to have to make. My sister unexpectedly had to be taken to the hospital the night of December 21, 2019. She had surgery the morning of December 22, 2019. My sister didn’t get released from the hospital until December 24, 2019. Christmas was on December 25, 2019 where I had to take my sister back to the hospital because she was in severe pain and was having some complications from her surgery. My grandma had heart surgery on December 31st and just was released to come home January 2, 2020. We had the service for my neighbor yesterday, January 4, 2020 and I am currently at my grandmothers taking care of her while also trying to catchup on everything that I am behind on work wise and hobby wise (which is this). I will be sending out like 10 kits today both forum and eBay today. I have power folding mirror kits to get out, I have tailgate lock kits to get out, etc

I’d like to say thank you for your patience and for your orders!!!

 

So sorry to hear about all the events from the end of the year..wishing you and your family a speedy recovery and a better new year! As far as your neighbor, praying for his family and friends as that is certainly hard, especially unexpected or accident. I'm not waiting on an order...as I have yet to place one (been MIA from the site for a while), I'm sure people will understand. I will let you know when I'm ready to order the kit..I was looking at the power folding mirrors a year ago when all I could find was European spec mirrors for $$$$, so glad there are options now! Thanks!

 

Tough to hear your struggles but please have faith and know people out there will be supportive if you give them the chance to be. Positive vibes your way!

 

By chance is this the connection plate for the 2011 4Runner? Would this be for all 4th Gen 4Runners or what Years?

 

If you are interested in sending me your older mirrors I can test them out

 

UPDATE:

Well Finally...once my Vendor gets back to work, I will be placing an order for the 4RUNNER POWER FOLDING MIRROR PLUG-N-PLAY HARNESS to make the POWER FOLDING MIRRORS 100% PLUG-N-PLAY! I will be adding the Lock, Unlock, 12V, and GND Wires to the PNP Harness. I have plans in the future to update the system. As of right now, I'm not there yet, but hopefully soon. Due to the fact that my personal vendor owns Toyota of China, I pretty much have access to whatever OEM Connectors and/or other items. Which means, I have finally located the OEM Connection plate that works with the 4Runner and Tacoma mirrors where I will not have to mod any part of the Mirror Housing again. I am in the process of trying to get it and then my plan is to make my own mold so that I will have it myself and my own discretion for both of my kits. It will definitely make my life so much easier. I also have the plan to update the wire harness so that it will connect to both the Lock and Unlock wiring mechanism of the vehicle. Here is a picture of the pin locations.







Her is a picture of just the Lock and Unlock Wires



Here is the 4Runner Connector in the Vehicle



I also plan to come out with some other mods for the 4Runner Community here in the near future. One I have out on the market now is my PLUG-N-PLAY IN-CAB AC 120V 400W ANYTIME POWER OUTLET WIRE HARNESS. The purpose of this feature is to add a IN-CAB AC 120V 400W POWER OUTLET inside the Cab of a 2nd/3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma or a 5th Gen 4Runner, where one might actually use it on-the-go in up to 3 different locations! Here are some pictures just to give you and idea of this mod and I'll attach the link after the pics of my Tacoma thread and my website.

So I’m interested this for my wife’s 2020 limited. I’ve send a pm and called a couple times and left messages to the number on the website. I have a couple questions. Does anyone know if these are available or the vendor is still selling these?
These would come in very handy for my wife pulling into the garage.
Not trying to press the situation at all but As mentioned, I’m interested and looking to probably purchase.
Thanks in advance.

 

I’m waiting for the updated kit/price as well. I chatted with ktjo4x4 today and she’s still finalizing the new kits and pricing. I’m sure she’ll update when ready

 

any new updates on the kit pricing?

 

Patiently waiting myself.....

 

let me ping her on messenger
