Expert Reply:
The best (and easiest) wiring kit that we have for your 2018 Toyota Tacoma (without the tow package) is the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness # 22117.
This comes with everything needed to add a fully functioning 7-Way and 4-Way on your pickup. It connects your basic lighting functions with the T-Connectors that you mentioned and has the rest of the wiring bundled in a loom to make running them up to your cab/engine compartment much easier. This kit even comes with a pigtail that is compatible with all of the Tekonsha brake controllers like the popular Prodigy P3 # 90195 if you end up needing to use a brake controller.
The connector that comes with the kit is a 7-Way but you can swap that out with the Hopkins # HM40950 for both a 7-Way and a 4-Way connector.
