2016 Scion FRS Spec D Headlight Rewire: 6 pin to 8 pin

[tay.green]

Hey guys, I own a 2016 Scion FRS and am having some trouble with getting my new Spec D headlights to work (with the rewire).

So coming out of the body of the car there is the 8 pin connector and it comes with these wires:
1. Tan
2. NA
3. NA
4. Black
5. Blue
6. Black / White
7. White / Blue
8. Black / White

The Spec D Headlights come with the 6 Pin Connector but only 4 of the 6 pins are being used:
1. NA
2. NA
3. Red / Black
4. Blue
5. Blue / Black
6. Red

From digging through other forums I've found the Spec D Headlights mean this:
3. Red / Black: Motor (-)
4. Blue: Headlight (+)
5. Blue / Black: Headlight (-)
6. Red: Motor (+)

From my understanding the Spec D wires should go into the 8 pin connector as such, but it isn't working:
1. Yellow - turn signal
2. NA
3. NA
4. Black - both grounds
5. Blue
6. Blue / Black
7. Red
8. Red / Black

Does anybody know what the wires from the 8 Pin Connector coming out of the body of the FRS mean and which wires they would connect to on the Spec D Headlights? If I know which connects to which I could be done with this night mare.

Any information would be helpful, thanks.

I personally don't remember when I did mine (had a mechanic friend help me install), but did some research myself when I was setting up.

Yeah I tried both this video and that thread before posting, however the frs in the video already has a 6 pin, so the headlights are plug and play. And the other thread doesn’t have the correct wiring for the frs :/ that’s what has me in such a bind.

It could be because mine is the release series 2.0 and they may have done the headlight wiring differently than the base model frs. It’s just been a struggle the past week trying to figure it out.

Sorry to bump an old thread , but have you figured it out because i’m in the same boat. My car has a 8 pin and the headlights have a 6 pin.
