Typed in "Toyota Tails" and found this
If you can't find the white wire, pull back the sticky black tape around the turn signal harness. It's there somewhere. Good luck.

There's two or three plugs off the headlight switch. You want the top one (gray one) not the side one (blue) or the small one (black) which is the cruise (if you have it).

White wire.. it's either the first or second one on the left side of the connector. Been a while since I did it.

On John Lenko's website (http://members.shaw.ca/toyota_cavalier/tailshowto.html), it says at the bottom that on 2002 and some 2003 models, you should use the yellow wire and not the white for the 3rd brake light

Does anyone know why?

Is he saying that the white might actually be yellow on some models?

I used the white wire, but I can't remember if the other one was yellow or not. If there is a white, and a yellow does using the white hurt?

i did the install on an 03 and an 05 and they were the same white wire as the the rest of the years(95-02) and the worked perfectly fine.

I put that there because someone said that it was a yellow wire. I thought they were wrong then too..

Thanks guys.

I'll leave it on the white then.

Much appreciated. I love the new lights as much as I pictured them in my head for the past 4 years.
