Does DD Tail as Turn work on 2017?
I'm thinking about the ACE Laguna 90 exhaust for my 2017 BRZ and I want to make sure I still have backup lights. Thx!

Not sure if serious but the MY17 has LED lights, you can't put a white light in them for the reverse.

Yes. I'm aware of the led's. That's why I'm asking. Basically, if I delete my reverse light, is there a way that I can use this mod to have a reverse light in a different place, except that I wouldn't need to add any LED's.
The reason I ask is that I've seen several posts from people who did this with their pre-17 twins after switching to this exhaust and losing the reverse light. Does that make sense, or am I misunderstanding the way this device works? (given that they are not using the mod for it's explicit purpose, but rather taking advantage of a side effect) |

What they do in the original tail lights is swap the indicator bulb with a white bulb:

Okay thanks! Guess that's a no for my application.

The Tail-as-Turn™ will not be compatible with the 2017 model because of the tail light design differences.
The Diode Dynamics SmartTap™ module works on the 2017 Toyota 86 though! http://www.diodedynamics.com/images/.../86_strobe.gif http://www.diodedynamics.com/images/.../86_wigwag.gif http://www.diodedynamics.com/images/...wag_strobe.gif Nick C. |

You could do a small LED strip with enclosure behind the stainless mesh. Something like this. Just out of site till the lights are on. Thats just an idea but something along those lines. http://www.dhresource.com/albu_28342...high-power.jpg |
