FYI, mitsubishi relay fits 4runner, cost 10 times less.

I was shopping for a toyota light (fog, tail lamp, EFI and etc) relay - toyota parts # 90987-02012. Conicelli sells it for ~$40.

By coincident, i tried one of my friend's mitsubishi relays on the 4runner, and it fits and everything works fine. the relays are physically the same except made by different companies.

the mitsubishi relay (parts # MR122409) sells for $4.66 on conicelli.

I know a couple other people around here are also looking for factory relays, hope this helps.

Here's a picture of the fuse box taken from J.A.'s awesome website. I've marked the relays with red arrows. Hope J.A. don't mind.

Also...alittle FYI...

The 99+ 4 Runner fog lights(Stanleys) are the same as what is found on the Mitsi Eclipse. Not sure if there is any price diff though.

The eclipse fogs are $180 a piece compared to ~$360 for the toyota's. All you need is some mounting brackets, relay and factory switch. you have yourself an awesome fog lights set up. BTW used eclipse fogs are avaliable on ebay for about $70 a pair, very good deal indeed.

I have an extra set of brand new toyota mounting brackets if you need them, email me if interested.
