i have a 99 camry with drl that had gotten into a wreck. both headlights were destroyed. they are replaced now. the passenger side connector is fine however the drivers side connector is busted. I got a connector from the junk yard with the headlight. Thing is, i dont think the donor car had drl's. the donor pigtail has 3 wires and the car harness has 4. i can get the high beams to work, but the low beam is super dim. and i dont know what to do with the 4th wire.

can someone get a picture of the pigtail? the bulbs are the same with 3 connection points, so why does the car have 4 wires to the driver headlight and only 3 to the passenger?

If the '98 had drl and non-drl, sounds like you should just get the plug with 4 wires. When you go parts-hunting, best advice I can think of is either count the wires, or look for thedrl relay/fuse in the fuse/relay box..
