2-Piece Front Corner Light Assembly Set

Precision Exterior Lighting Restoration for 1997–1998 Toyota 4Runner

Restore the classic factory appearance and safety of your vehicle with this premium Front Corner Light Set. Specifically engineered for the 3rd Generation Toyota 4Runner, these assemblies are the ideal solution for replacing yellowed, cracked, or moisture-leaking factory units. As a critical component of your vehicle's signaling and parking light system, these lamps ensure your intentions are clearly visible to other drivers, particularly during low-light or inclement weather conditions.

Each assembly features high-clarity, UV-stabilized lenses that resist the "clouding" common with aging plastics. The housings are sonically sealed to protect internal electrical connections from road salt, rain, and debris. Designed as a direct-fit replacement, these lights utilize the factory mounting points and electrical connectors for a seamless, "no-modification" installation.

Fitment Verification and Vehicle Applications

This set includes both the Front Driver Side (LH) and Front Passenger Side (RH) assemblies:

• Toyota 4Runner: 1997 (Models manufactured From 2/01/97 Production Date).

• Toyota 4Runner: 1998 (All Production Dates).

• Important Fitment Note: Toyota updated the corner light design during the 1997 model year. Please verify your vehicle's production date (found on the door jamb sticker) to ensure compatibility. These units feature the specific mounting tab configuration used for the 1997.5–1998 grille and headlight style.

Installation and Technical Tips

• Simple Tooling: Installation typically requires only a Phillips-head screwdriver. The single mounting screw is accessible from the top of the fender or through a gap between the headlight and the grille.

• Socket Inspection: When swapping your bulbs (168/194 style) into the new housings, inspect the electrical sockets for green corrosion. If found, clean the contacts with a wire brush or electrical contact cleaner to prevent intermittent flickering.

• Production Date Verification: If your 1997 4Runner was manufactured before February 1997, the mounting tabs may differ. Double-check the build date on your VIN plate located on the driver-side door pillar.

• Aesthetic Consistency: Lighting components age at the same rate. Replacing both the driver and passenger sides simultaneously ensures that the lens clarity and light output are perfectly matched, giving your 4Runner a balanced, "like-new" front-end appearance.
