How did you wire them? Many HID kits are not setup for the Yaris' switched ground to the headlights, as opposed to switched power.

Wired them modifying the wires on the harness that came with the headlights. 2 wires that are seperate with own plugs off ballast wired into wires off plug. Black for black and blue for red for low beams. Black for black and red for red on high beams. I have the feeling your gonna tell me what I did wrong and hopefully tell me the right way.

Since they don't work that is likely the case.

With the headlights, black (left) and grey (right) are the positive wires. Then, green (right) and brown (left) are switched ground wires to turn on the high beams and blue (right) and green (left) are switched grounds to turn on the low beams.

Please post the wiring schematic (with color codes) of your SpecD projector headlights. Also, do those headlights have lighted halos as well?

They do have halos. They where pretty easy to hook up. Wired them to the small drl thats next to the stock headlight. I will also mention that I unplugged the drl module before. Didnt like having drl's. On a side note, I lived in Connecticut off and on throughout my life. Newtown and Bethel mostly.
