What’s new in Version 2?

Version 2 adds a dedicated DRL power tap with two pre-installed fuses and heat shielding. It powers the XSE/XLE headlight’s LED daytime running light (DRL) array while the vehicle is running, matching factory XSE/XLE behavior.

Why choose this kit?

  • Plug-and-play installation: Connects between your vehicle wiring and compatible headlights.
  • Dedicated DRL power: The DistantXtremes Add-a-Fuse supplies power to the XSE/XLE LED DRL array.
  • Protected wiring: Two pre-installed fuses and a heat shield cover are included.
  • Secure connections: Professional-grade, secure-locking connectors help keep connections in place.
  • Fully reversible: No cutting, splicing, or permanent wiring modifications.

What’s included

  • 2 × Version 2 SE-to-XSE headlight adapter harnesses, approximately 12 inches each.
  • 1 × Add-a-Fuse DRL power wire with high-temperature shielding and two pre-installed fuses.
  • 6 × zip ties.

Installation at a glance

The adapters connect inline between your vehicle wiring and the headlights. The dedicated DRL power wire draws power from an ignition-on fuse. Detailed installation instructions are included.

Required vehicle settings

  • Set the headlight switch to AUTO.
  • Turn factory DRL OFF in your LE/SE/TRD vehicle settings.

Use the installation manual for the complete procedure. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with automotive wiring.

Frequently asked questions

Will this work with aftermarket headlights?

Yes, with compatible factory-style Toyota XSE/XLE full LED headlights that use the 8-pin gray connector. Check the headlight style and connector before ordering.

Do I need to cut or splice any wires?

No. This is a plug-and-play adapter kit with no cutting or splicing required. Installation is fully reversible.

Why do I need to turn off factory DRL?

LE, SE, and TRD trims use the low-beam projector as the daytime running light. Version 2 powers the XSE/XLE LED DRL array instead, so the factory DRL setting must be disabled.

Will this cause warning lights or error messages?

No. With compatible OEM headlights, the headlights function normally without error messages.

How is Version 2 different from Version 1?

Version 2 adds a fused DRL power tap with heat shielding, allowing the XSE/XLE LED DRL array to illuminate correctly while the vehicle is running.

Can I upgrade from Version 1?

Yes. DIY and mail-in upgrade options are available. Shipping costs apply.

What sets the DistantXtremes kit apart?
