Nissan frontier tail lights wiring how to
LED tail light install Nissan Frontier
I just opened the package to the smoked version of these, and there is no need to cut wires. They probably saw that they needed to create a true plug and play version because mine came with all 3 clips!
Lucky lol, glad to hear they fixed it.
Link to where you bought the smoked version ones
@@lprto9831 These are smoked and also plug and play now > amzn.to/3AaK8T7
@@EndMotive right on thanks
Lucky i only received da f-in light no wires
Just wanted to revisit and say thanks again. Was able to learn how to wire up my own clips while keeping the factory wire harness. Wire diagram and parts are all good in case anyone is reading the comments. Keep up the build!!
No problem!
Got a '13 Frontier new. What gets me Frontiers are still in production while you can way more aftermarket parts for a Chevy S-10 that's was last made in 2005!
Agreed, weird huh.
Very nice! I like that they don’t look cheap. Most aftermarket head/tail lights look bad. Definitely gonna get some. Thanks
love to see more of the reverse and blinking after your done but those tail lights look so SICK! def have to pick them up for upgrading my 2013 frontier
Thank you so much for this video i was litterly about to buy these same taillights and I had no idea what to expect. Thank you for the tutorial it was very helpful👍👍👍💪
Hardwiring is easy if you want to save a few bucks but I would definitely get the new clips and save your stock harness! You are welcome and thanks for the sub!
@@EndMotive hi, are the turn signals on these amber or red?
@@olivert133 they are amber
Thank you sir! Work perfectly for my 2019 Frontier and the wiring diagram is spot on!!
Awesome, glad to hear!
This is exactly my truck. Gunmetal Gray, Pro4X. 2019 .
So far so good. I did my headlights, fog lights, rear back up lights. I want to do my interior lights to blue or ice blue.
Nice choice!
Looking forward to a 1-month/6-month/1-year update.
Lol yeah I've been slacking lately. Thanks though!
Thank you so so much for the wiring diagram my installation was super easy !!
Of course!
Very nice PRO4X. BTW, the rear bumper license plate lights can be cheaply upgraded to LED as well.
Thanks, good idea!
Installing the smoked taillights now. Thanks for the help
Lol I actually think I prefer the red, it looks more OEM upgrade than aftermarket.
I have a black truck and was looking for the murdered out look.Also the plugs are not plug and play on my 2011 Suzuki Equator (rebadged frontier). Looks great though and was an easy install
Plug and play for me.
Great video and you have patients.
Thanks, The wiring was fairly easy...and worth it!
I ordered the male pin connections but I came with them, I needed the female why me
For the price I’d expect it to be a little more plug and play. Looks nice though
Yeah, I wish it was lol. Price is pretty fair I think, and it should be plug and play for 05 - 13 I am pretty sure and maybe 14.
yep, junk IMO if they can't supply the correct plugs.
Just gained a sub for the frontier content🤙
I've actually been thinking about deliberately reversing the tail light and the brake light. Since we use the brake more than the tail light it would be cool to show off the unique patter as brake light more often. What's the brightness difference ?
It would work just fine, There is a noticeable difference between the brake and tail light.
Good job & great video, i watching from Thailand.
Thank you!
For the cost of these, they should include a wire adapter harness
Yeah they should have, I am pretty sure they do include it now actually!
Thought after 9 month ?
I still like them! They look and function just as good as new.
Thanks man for the review 😎 i bought a pair of smoke one for my Frontier 2019 Midnight can't wait to install them haha
@@kevlav10 Nice! yeah I am still super happy with them. Good luck on install!
@@kevlav10 Hello, Which company on Amazon did you buy from?
@@smithrebecca4866 Hi, i bought them on ebay :)
great write up! time for the plate lights swapped to LED! finish the look
Great and detailed installation video. I want to get a set for my truck but I wanted to know if the smoked lens ones are too dark for daytime. I like the red lens ones that you installed but I want to be seen in the day and night when braking and signaling. Let me know if you have any input. Your truck looks great!
Thank you, I haven't seen the smoked ones in person but pictures make it look like they will be fine. You could always just get red lens pair and either tint them or use vht nite shades to darken them up.
They look awesome! I don’t really care for the sequential turn signal. Is there any way to turn it off? And is the turn signal amber or red?
Thank you!
you can’t turn off the sequence, however there’s another style of LED taillights that are C-shaped on ebay. i prefer that look better, they have a simple halogen turn signal which can easily be swapped with an LED bulb so they aren’t sequential
I ordered the smoked ones for my 2012. I think the last owner of my frontier had some of the wiring modified when they added a camper shell. DRL works but it's on constant. So I gotta figure out what's going on
Nice ones Nick
Thanks, very helpful. Your frontier is post '14? Do the the back-up lights provide adequate light? How does compare to original reverse lights? I'm about to install the Morimoto headlights . These tail lights modernize entire truck.
I agree about modernizing the truck! Yes my truck is a 2018. Light output is great all around being led. I would say the reverse is probably brighter than stock. I want the Morimoto headlights too, hopefully I can pick a set up in the future.
What are you supposed to do with the white clip when putting in the new tail lights?
I believe they changed the plugs since I made this video.
Kind of late but I have a 2012 and just ordered a set, would I not need to make a wiring harness?
They should now come with the correct wiring for all years now.
Do terminals/pins come with the connectors? If not what kind did you purchase?
yes, the pins come with the new terminals.
Sweet. Yeah those lights look good. Thanks for the vid. Ya did good
@@broncanus9222 Thank You!
Thank you for liking our taillights! Can we put your video on our listing?
Hello, and yes you can!
@@EndMotive I think this video should help a lot of people! Thank you very much.
Hi I have 2014 frontier I like those led tail lights is mine wiring different what you did and can you send all the information on this thanks
I have a link in the description with a wiring guide if needed but I believe these tail lights are plug and play now and do not require any cutting to install.
What you end up doing with the pin that didn’t line up ? Did you just leave it alone and just used the other side to keep the taillights up? That’s one issue I had with some I bought and that’s the reason I didn’t install mine an still have them laying around.
The mounting pin? Yeah I just didn't end up using it. Its only mounted with the two bolts. Definitely not as secure, but if you push it into place while tightening it...it lines up good and stays put
I’ve got the smoked versions of these lights but the rear light has gone. How do I replace the LED’s?
Honestly, I have no idea. I am not sure the LEDs are replaceable. Reaching out to the seller is probably the best bet.
Not much of an electrician so sorry for the dumb question but can you just buy those pins at any local automotive store?
No worries, neither am I lol. hmm, maybe..? I have not tried looking honestly, but if I had to guess, probably not. They were fairly hard to track down the correct ones as it was. The pins anyways..yes you probably could buy those locally, but the plugs will be hard to find.
I just installed these on my 2019 sv and they look great, however I am getting hyperflash in the turnsignals with them. Have you had any issues with hyperflashing?
I have not had any hyperflash issues. The turn signal still work though?...hard to say, but it might need a resistor.
@@EndMotive Yes , turn signals are working , just hyperflash. I have been unable to replace the turn signal relay with a LED compatable one. I'm told that will solve issue. We will see.
@@michaelbarretta6574 Hope you can figure it out, Good luck!
do yours have a gap on the side part of the tail light and the bed because the rivet did not go in the hole?
Yes a small one. Definitely not the same fitment as oem.
@@EndMotive I put mine on and it seems the tighter i put them the gap opens more so I had to leave them a bit loose. I'm planning on grinding the part where the bolt holds to an angle where I tight it then it will be forced to close the gap
Where can I get better headlights than the terrible ones, that came on my 2000 Nissan frontier?
I have no idea, I would just check reviews for whatever is available on amazon.
The LED light on mine has blown, any idea where I can get a new one?
Unfortunately, I have no idea. Sorry. Hopefully it is replaceable.
How is the output during the day? I see some reviews saying they are kind of dark in the daylight.
I think they look good...haven't noticed them being too dim, but I didn't get the smoked lenses either...im sure those are not as bright.
สวยมากครับที่เมืองไทยมีขายไหมครับ
I am not sure, but yes probably!
I've heard the reverse leds aren't very bright. Is this true?
Hmm, they look fine to me...I will take it out in the sun and try them out and try to get a picture
can the white clip on the tub be moved to fit the new light locator?
I would have to pull it all apart again to check, but off the top of my head it won't work....Not to say that it is impossible to make a mount to adapt it.
@@EndMotive i noticed it has another locator hole and thought it may be able to be moved.
Nice but I'm not a wire kind of guy. I couldn't do this
It was fairly easy but I am pretty sure they now include the wiring to make it completely plug and play
do you still have your old ones? I'd be interested in buying them.
I do have my stock one still, I plan on holding on to them though.
@@EndMotive k
Hey, you had a video on big brakes options. Can you send me the link?
I actually deleted the video, I still have the info and will still be trying to build a budget 4 piston kit for the Frontier...but I sold my house and everything is in storage so I cant do much until I get settled somewhere.
@@EndMotive ok no problem. Keep up the good work sharing your knowledge.
@@tremor1587 Thank you!
Awesome video but these are no longer available
They are still available on Aliexpress
@@EndMotive thank you I’ll check it out
Where can I buy the connectors? someone to help me where I can buy them please ?
I have them listed in the video description
@@EndMotive nice thank you so much also you do a good work 👍🏼
@@eugenioagomez2413 Thanks and no problem, Glad to help!
Dude!…thx so much for that video!!….I feel like a DUMASS once again for jumping down that F’N CHINESE “rabbit hole again!!! I ordered these for my 2019 Frontier SV 4X4….for X-mas…they came in time..(99.00) extra!!…Scandalous!…but here……I’m an electronic tech for over 35 years…& all I received was the tail lights and bubble wrap!!!…that’s it…..Ive been going back & forth with the EBAY provider for schematic’s…& nada!….where or who did you buy these from?…..on a different note….who do you think they are making these for??….they obviously come pre-harnessed with plugs and all…????….RIGHT?…..somebody’s doing “plug-N-play”….but DEFINITELY not us!!….US ROCKS!!!!
No problem, glad to help! I am pretty sure the harness only works for pre 2014 trucks but sucks they didnt have a decent directions or adapter to make it work with the newer trucks.
Can you help me find the link please I can’t find it!

They will replenish, check back in a few days! Otherwise you can grab them on aliexpress.com...but shipping is expensive and slow.
Amazon has it now.
The link is for smoked lens. What about the clear lens like you have?
Same link, there should be an option for the smoked or clear lenses on the listing.....or at least there was when I posted it
@@EndMotive Thank you. I didn't see the option.
@@raymonster55 Amazon has it now.
Problably won't last 3 months
Been working good for 2 and a half years so far.
it is called a PLUG, not a clip. PLUGS not CLIPS.
lmao noted
Noyce....very noyce
Thanks!
Accidentally cracked the driver's side lens adding a tailgate assist strut... bought a so-called OEM replacement, Amazon rip-off assembly withe the wrong shaped bulb tab holes, had to return it!!!
So ordered the smoked version of these LEDs after watching your video for my new/used 2020 Pro-4x... sposed to be here in couple days!!!
Wish me luck!
