Question:
I purchased this item previously and found a problem finding the two end connectors to plug into my OEM 2007 Toyota Tundra CrewMax vehicle harness. By chance would you be able to provide these connectors or point me in the right direction to accomplish this task? By the way, I received no connector ends for this item to connect to my vehicle connectors. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The correct replacement 7-way for your Tundra should be part # HM43385. You can confirm this by examining the connectors under the truck that the connector would plug into. One connector should accept 4 pins, the other three pins. If your connectors are different, with one accepting 4 pins and the other 2 pins, you would need # HM11143395. The HM43385 fits 2003-2007 Tundra models, according to Hopkins. It is important that you check the existing connectors to ensure you get the correct connector. Keep in mind, the bracket for either of these connectors does not match up to the OEM bracket hole locations. The bracket holes will need to be redrilled if you want them to match the OEM location.
If you prefer the # HM40975 you already have, it could be hardwired into the existing wiring using a pigtail like # PK11998. You would need to cut the existing connectors off the OEM wiring and use a circuit tester like part # 40376 to determine wire function.
