The brake lights on the RAV4 are limited to the outer section of the taillights. At night, the inner section of the taillights illuminates with the headlights, but during the day, when the headlights are off, the inner section remains unlit and does not function as a brake light. This harness allows the inner section of the taillights to function as brake lights during the day when the headlights are off. At night, when the headlights are on, the inner section returns to its normal function and no longer acts as a brake light. The primary goal of this modification is to improve brake light visibility during the day. Hope that makes sense.
This was installed on our Hybrid so you're good. I don't foresee the harness not working on gas models. This should be compatible on all 5th Gen RAV4's.
I learnt couple of months back from a buyer that it doesn't work on Canadian Rav4, does this particular one work on Canadian Rav4 pls?. (just to know if this is selective too) Thanks
@@musaadedibu9316 Did you try the multiple harnesses version like these? I've tested a few other harnesses out there. The single harnesses out there do not operate correctly. This requires more wiring but works as intended.
If you are not installling extra bulbs then howcome brake lights lit up the whole area...hard to understand how

Does the hybrid and non hybrid have require different harnesses? Been looking one for my 2022 rav4 hybrid se

@CX.Mods.
Nooo... I didn't try any since it was already stated.
Thanks for your swift response... I will order this
💯👍
@@musaadedibu9316 sounds good. The way these are designed I don't foresee them not working on Canadian models.
What does it look like with the headlights on at night.
Good questiion. Nothing changes with the functions of the lights at night. The harness is merely meant for better day visibility when braking.
