LIGHTING & DESIGN
Vehicle-specific optics and configurable lighting
- Output (Standard Drivers) : DOT (FMVSS108) Compliant (LB2V and UB2)
- Main Optics : 2x Type 1 Ishida Optic Bi-LED (1x Nichia NC4W193F @ 750mA)
- High Beam Assist : 1x Type D Ishida Optic HB (4x Nichia NCSW131G @ 750mA)
- Turn Signal Modes : Sequential or Fade Off (Integrated)
- DRL Colors : White or Amber (Integrated)
- Lens Details : Polycarbonate with UV-Shield Hard coating (Exceeds OE Toyota benchmark)
These specifications apply to the standard XB Evo assembly. Optional Supercharged drivers are separately sold and produce non-compliant intensity for road use in the US and Canada. Do not treat optional off-road output as the standard road configuration.
FROST-FREE SYSTEM
How to activate the heated headlight lens
The logic-controlled 50W ceramic heating element and circulation fans warm the housing to help mitigate lens frost, snow and ice buildup during driving.
- With the vehicle running, wait until the welcome sequence completes.
- Flash the high beams four times within four seconds. The ambient sensor must read below 5°C / 41°F, and the other operating conditions must be satisfied.
- Two return flashes indicate active heating and fans. One acknowledges the request with conditional standby.
The system monitors lens and heater temperatures and battery voltage. It starts off at every ignition cycle; request it again when needed. The same four flashes within four seconds manually disable it.
This is an aid during inclement driving, not a system intended to melt heavy overnight snow accumulation.

PRODUCT QUESTIONS
Helpful answers before ordering
Is the price for a pair?
Yes. This listing is for the driver-side and passenger-side headlight set, not one assembly.
Are all XB Evo variants heated?
No. This exact standard XB Evo SKU includes Frost-Free lens heating. Do not transfer the feature to Hybrid or XRGB variants.
Does Frost-Free turn on automatically?
No. Request it with four high-beam flashes within four seconds after the welcome sequence with the vehicle running. The sensor must read below 5°C / 41°F and operating conditions must allow heating. It defaults off after each ignition cycle.
Will it melt a heavy overnight snow covering?
The guide says it is intended to mitigate buildup while driving, not melt heavy overnight snow accumulation.
What should I check before ordering?
2016–2023 Toyota Tacoma. Fits SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, Limited, Trail Special Edition and TRD Pro. Use the supplied halogen or OEM LED adapter for the original lights; follow fuse-tap routing and the factory DRL setting instructions. Match the original headlight equipment and review the exact installation guide.
Can I use Supercharged drivers on the road?
Optional Supercharged drivers are for off-road use because they produce non-compliant intensity in the US and Canada. Use the standard compliant configuration for road use.
