JDM Fog Light Conversion FR-S > GT86 - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Been following this thread but just to clarify, the process would be to:

1. Buy the JDM Bezels from nigel and Subaru Legacy Housing (available in the US)
2. Remove OEM Bezel, put in JDM bezel - mount OEM turn signals and Subaru Legacy housing to JDM bezel (with H11 bulbs).
3. Make a wire harness to a switch somewhere in your car, or buy the wheel stalk from nigel
4. Fogs!

Does that sound about right?

If someone could figure out how to wire in the stalk im in too. But it cant be that plug and play easy.How hard is it to make a harness and run wire to your steering wheel and tap into something if thats the case.

Sounds right to me. On Nigel's website, it seems like he is selling a harness with his option packages although I am not sure if this is an OEM harness or one built by his hookup in El Monte.

Nigel, could you please confirm? Also, on your website are you selling the Toyota plastic lens or the Subaru glass lens?

Thanks,

Brian

couldnt wait for this gb im making this happen now!

can someone with wiring expertise figure out the stalk harness please

im looking through the BRZ FSM and theres alot of wire groundwork in the harness thats related for the main stalk and im afraid its not in the FR-S main harness

my goal is to have this stalk activate the front and rear fog light

NemeGuero · 12-12-2012, 02:38 PM

Where'd you source the fogs from? Seem about 50-60 each side.

I'd like in on the GB for bezels and stalk too. I'm still not clear on the wiring harness though. Is there an OEM harness from the factory? Is the harness Nigel is selling necessary? Can it be bought from him separately?

NemeGuero · 12-14-2012, 06:05 PM

Nigel said no go on the Bezels GroupBuy since they're already priced so low.

From his website it says the harness is aftermarket.

I doubt that OEM is a seperate sub harness, you'd probably have to swap out the entire engine bay harness and probably the underdash one as well.

email/PM him about buying stuff seperatly. He'll accomodate.

have you used the legacy light? does it work/ attach to the Toyota fog light bezel? is everything exactly the same as the Toyota 86 ones expect for it being glass?
~thanks for your help!
