    When installing new front turn signal housings this weekend (and replacing the included incandescent amber bulb with amber LEDs), I found that the connector from the truck's wiring is different from the connector that came with the housings; I ordered housings for turn signals with DRL.
    My Toyota dealership confirmed via VIN that my truck "should / does" have DRL. Using the attached photos, I'm hoping someone here can tell me why they are different and how to fix this issue.
    I have a 6 cylinder '05 SR5.
    Thanks!
    Photo #2 - New bulb socket. This is the end that should connect to the truck's wiring, bulb attaches on the other end.
    Photo #3 - The original connector, bulb attachment, and bulb.
    Photo #4 - New bulb socket; the end that new bulb connects to.
    Photo #5 - The original socket that the old bulb sockets connects to.
