$20 for pic of stock 2013 FRs headlight label - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Southcbishop · 04-20-2018, 11:14 AM

I will Venmo the first person that provides me with a legible picture of a STOCK Frs headlight US spec label (or plastic imprint). I am considering moving to Germany and taking my car with me, and the company that may do the conversion is asking for this picture. I cant find it online anywhere, and I really dont want to disassemble my front end just for a picture. Please feel free to ask me questions if you'd like. I'm sure any year model frs headlight will suffice.

Thanks!

Why don't you stop at a dealer and ask the parts dept. person that you would like to see a replacement headlight .....take a picture ....??

Already thought of that. None of the shops around here have one in stock apparently. They can order one, but I’ll have to pay for it:/

I have some 2016 FRS headlights at home. I can try and remember to get you a pic tomorrow.

Thanks! That would be great.

Out of curiosity, what conversions might a FR-S need to import it to Germany ......??

Had the brilliant idea of watching a couple headlight install videos to see if I could catch a glimpse of the label you're looking for. No such luck, but it might be worth your time to give it a shot. Only checked a couple videos myself.

Mostly all glass including mirrors, headlights, taillights, side markers, need to have the E-mark on it. That a capital “E” with a number (like “4” or “6” or something) on it. The windows need it too, but the Frs actually has that rating in all windows, so no need to change. The exhaust also needs to be E rated, which I think the Frs already is so no change. And the tires need to be E-marked and certain sizes so those need to be swapped. I think there may be some other small things too. The E-mark is essentially Europe’s (ECE) version of the US DOT certification. It appears that the FRS does not have the E-mark on its lights and mirrors, so I was hoping that one might just be able swap all the lights and mirrors with GT86 parts. Waiting to hear back from the shop.

Btw, I’ve gotten several pics of what I asked for. And the $20 has been paid. Thanks!

How long are you paying out the $20 and what is the cap? I think I can get you about 30 of these pics and at $20 a pop that will get me $600 and the 4.88 gear and parts I've been thinking about getting soon.

Their version of DOT is much more serious. No speed limit on certain parts of the Autobahn, but get caught driving too fast on tires rated for a lower speed limit and you get in some trouble.

I cannot imagine any dealer having a headlight in stock for a twin.

enough that it is probably cheaper in the long run to sell it here and buy a used one that meets all the requirements there.
