Hello, my 2005 Tacoma Reg cab 2.7l was stolen and I am in the middle of trying to repair the wiring since it was all cut to my stereo. In the 2005 tacoma it has a hazard switch/clock/seatbelt restraint little panel below the cd player. This was stolen, i've got a replacement but I need to know how to wire it to the back, since alls I have is a bunch of cut wires and the back of this new piece is a oem connector. Here's some pics. I know alot of my wires in the pic are for the stereo but some are for that hazard/clock assembly. I need to figure out which ones go where, and how do I get them connected?

Oh I called the dealership about buying a OEM harness to clip into the back of my hazard switch, and the guy said i'd have to buy the whole $1100 wiring harness for my truck. This cannot be right

no that's not right. talk about a crappy parts department at that dealership. if the parts person was competent he could find out the part number for the connector body and the terminals that fit into the cavities of the connectors from Toyota if he calls the right people at Toyota. Toyota doesn't make that harness. like all vehicles, engineers decide what has to go where in a vehicle harness and how much current needs to be carried through the wires, then another manufacturer builds the harness to the specs using parts (the connector bodies and terminals) from yet another manufacturer that makes those parts like Delphi or Deutez or whoever...... then ships the complete built harness to a Toyota factory where it is installed. there is a spec dept at Toyota that a dealer can contact to find out all the part numbers for all the little crap like that for things that were made by another vendor for Toyota. at any rate, i would either go to a different dealer or just find what you need at a wrecking yard and cut it off a harness in an existing truck at a salvage yard.
