Hey guys, here is my question regarding headlights:
I have a 2013 FRS I am restoring. I purchased a 2013 Series 10 front clip (without knowing it) and was pleasantly surprised to have it with perfect condition lights. I am installing these on the 2013 car (along with the foglights) and have already repinned the 6/8 pin connectors. The headlights work, the DRL turns on the led strips, and headlights turn on as they should ( I think?). I have seen multiple threads mention tapping the #6 white wire into the green resistor box wire.. when this is done, am I just literally running a wire between the resistor box to the pin 6 wire? Do I need to splice it in or do I need to remove to original source for ths pin and feed in just the green resistor box wire? Also, I see that there is also a 3-pin triangular connector on the back of the light.. what is this plug supposed to do? i can't seem to find it anywhere online. Ideally, I think I want the led running light to turn OFF when the headlights are on and only be on when the DRL's are on, is this resistor box green wire supposed to accomplish this? Or do I need to set up a relay to get this accomplished? I think for the foglights I am all set, I just need to get the factory switch and get those wired in separately. Thanks for any help in advance. |

The better way is to splice into HiBeam Power upstream of the headlight into the DRL+ pin. You can read about it here: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=135275 In both cases, you should have one unused wire (Parking Power). ---- The 3 pin connector is for the HID leveler. |

-to "properly" get it wired in, the DRL relay and diode is something additional that needs to wire into the car, correct? -the LED power will come up-stream from the Hi Beam+ -the green resistor wire will trigger the relay which will trigger the LED bar as a running light. -the led running light will turn off via relay when the regular lights come on -the led bar will come on along with the high beams as well. is all of the above that I am getting at correct?? And one last question.. regarding the 3-pin leveling connector.. the base model obviously doesn't have this plug readily available to plug into the light...is that correct?? I thought it was there, but it turned out to be the turn signal connector which happens to be exactly the same.. I have a harness from the series 10 front clip that the lights came off of, so I'm sure I can get the connectors, so is this something that also needs to be wired up or is this something that can just be left unplugged? |

No, the base model doesn't have an HID leveler. It's not just a connector, it's a whole assembly with a sensor. It's a nice to have (keeps the lights from bouncing too much and getting in the way of other drivers), but not required. Just make sure your lights are pointed properly |

Hello everyone,
I have a 2019 86 with full LED headlights. I was wondering if theres a way to keep the DRL Bar illuminated while the blinker is on. Right now the DRL will turn off when I turn on the blinker on each side. I also think it only does this when the low beams are off. |

Hi everyone, I have a 2013 10 series and am installing baja designs squadron pro foglight and I have a eudm stalk coming to run them. My question is what oem parts can I get to make it as plug'n'play as possible? It looks like the fuse block is prewired. How much of the car is set up to run foglights?

Halo
Hello everyone,
I bought a FRS 2015 and it already had switchback halos installed on it. When I signal to the left, my halo switches to amber. The halo on the right side does not change color at all. Is it possibly a wiring issue or the bulb is out? |

Got a headlight or foglight question? ASK here.
I checked their page and it's only up to 2016 models. I also DM'd them on IG and yeah they don't have anything for the 2017+ headlights. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by Drifter X; 12-13-2019 at 01:37 PM. |
