Great idea for the LED replacements on the doors and backup lights. I know it's a look, but IMO, dimming safety equipment when this car is already invisible on the road isn't for me. I do prefer the OEM lights for the interior as I like the softer light but otherwise, this came out great. Thanks for the inspiration!
Loving the content and tutorials! I’ve used them a lot. Especially the ARP stud installs! Many others though as well! Thank you for your contribution to the community!

"installs brighter reverse lights, then installs light smoke overlay...🤔"...... for my (wrx) trunk I used one of those interior 10-led footwell lighting strips (two for $20) from the interior accent isle and affixed it (3m tape) to the parcel shelf. now, instead a single point of light, I have about a 10" strip of light running L/R centered in the trunk. since it is low profile, nothing is going to hit it. I can't remember if I had to make a wedge base or it already came w/one.
@@TheBTRGarage one mods begets another and another. OE trunk lighting is pathetic across all makes. 2-3 candle power (194/168) is not enough in dark trunk spaces
One of the clips on my fender liner is stuck. Pressing the center part in doesn't do anything and it is stuck when I try to pull the clip straight out. Any advice?
Oof, you might try squirting some WD40 or penetrating oil in there to see if it will loosen up. Worst case, take a small drill bit and drill out the center part of the clip. You can get replacement clips at Toyota/Subaru dealer or any auto shop.

I like the standard bulbs for interior lights, it makes everything look a little bit more stylish and gives a more warm cozy feeling
But the LED trunk light looks awesome
Yea I'm kinda torn between the OEM warm interior lights and the LED's, probably the only spot I'd put the OEM ones back.

Hey thanks! Appreciate you 🙏
Do you have links where u got bulbs and side markers? Great video.
@yuckyjon yep, here you go (everything else is in description too).
► LED lighting kit GR86 / BRZ (reverse lights) : amzn.to/40wXMeX
► SYLVANIA - 194 T10 LED (dome light) : amzn.to/3RPlm2R
► SYLVANIA - 168 T10 LED (door & trunk lights) : amzn.to/3DIvLHG
Thanks for sharing.. I'm gonna install the LEDs this week
You're welcome, hope the video helps!
Do cops give you any trouble for the white side markers vs amber?
No, not yet. They do light up amber, so only the lens is clear.
Is this only in the premium? Or the base model have them as well?
Premium models.
Have you done a video on your exhaust system
Yep, the Borla exhaust here : th-cam.com/video/hhFHNX4MgBU/w-d-xo.html
Very helpful thank you
You're welcome!
Are these clear side markers officially legal in the US?
@wudahu1979 they have an amber light in them, it's not actually clear/white light.

I needed the brighter to shine through the smoke overlay 😁 That's a good idea on the trunk led strip!

Did you use the 194 bulbs at all? I only saw you use the 168 bulbs.
Yea, in the dome lights there : th-cam.com/video/ryTwqbyLNGY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UsQ1zq_7Oa5cuO4C&t=309

@@TheBTRGarage Thanks Justin, I'll give these a try
5:40 Unsure why I still haven't switch my reverse light in my FRS to LED 🤔💭
Now you know how! At least, if it is the same :D
Super thanks
Welcome!
Anyone know what size vanity bulbs to get ?
What city do you live Justin?
I'm in the Phoenix, AZ area.
