This is a plug n play adapter kit for 8th Generation (2018-2024) Toyota Camry SE/TRD/LE owners that have upgraded their headlights to the factory FULL LED XSE or XLE headlights. No wire splicing, no fuse tapping, all plug, and play, and 100% reversible if you want to trade in your car later. No errors ever (YOU HAVE TO USE FACTORY TOYOTA XSE HEADLIGHTS - "TOYOTA" ON LENS). This only works with factory Toyota XSE headlights and only for headlights that are made for vehicles with VIN numbers that do not start with J.
What you will need: 2x XSE Headlights with a connector that has an 8-pin gray connector on the back.
What you will get in this kit: 2 DistantXtremes SE to XSE Wire harness adapters that are about 12" in length.
What this is for: This allows you to connect and install XSE headlights onto your LE, SE, TRD Camry.
If you have other lighting accessories that you need to tap into, you can tap into this adapter, so you do not have to slice into your factory wires.
Included: 2 Adapters (One Adapter per headlight)
Optimal operation is when the vehicle light switch is set to AUTO/ON.
How this harness works:
The DRL (Daytime Running Light) function is controlled by the vehicle computer, not the lights, and the DRL function is very different from the LE/SE/TRD trims and the XLE/XSE trims in the vehicle computer.
The LE/SE/TRD vehicle computer dims the low beam projector lights for the DRL Function on the LE/SE/TRD lights without the DRL LED Array. With the adapter, it will do the same on the XSE/XLE headlights.
The XSE/XLE vehicle computer turns on the DRL LED array on the XSE/XLE lights for the DRL. It does not dim the low beam projector, it actually keeps it off.
With this Version 1 adapter, the LE/SE/TRD computer will send the typical electrical info to the XSE/XLE headlights so it works like such:
Light switch on Auto, bright outside (DRL Mode on):
- LE/SE/TRD computer dims low beam projector on the XSE/XLE headlights.
Light switch on Auto, dark outside (DRL Mode off):
- LE/SE/TRD computer turns on low beam projector full power on the XSE/XLE headlights.
- LE/SE/TRD computer turns on parking lights, which activates the dim white LED array on the XSE/XLE headlights.
Turning the blinker on:
- LE/SE/TRD computer turns on the blinker signal and leaves the parking lights on. On the XSE/XLE headlights, the dim white LED array stays on while the Amber LED strip turns on.
This harness is not compatible with XSE Vehicles.
Reference: How the XSE headlights work only on the XSE vehicle computer:
- With DRL Mode On, the white LED Array is bright. All other lights are off.
- With DRL Mode Off, the white LED Array is dim and all other lights are on, except the blinker.
- With Blinker On, the LED Array turns off and the Amber strip blinks.
To make the XSE headlights function as if they were on the XSE vehicle computer, but installed on the SE vehicle, can not be done with this harness. This harness allows operation of the XSE headlights on SE vehicles without having to tap into fuses.
