I can't speak to the "tap-turn" unit...what I installed was a louder flasher. It was plug and play.

I got mine, but haven't had time to install it yet. It looks very simple. The hardest part will likely be just locating the stock flasher unit and unplugging it.

I got mine as well, but still don't have the car.

If nobody's done the install guide with pics by the time I get my car, I'll do it and post that when I install mine.

Ordered mine.. says out of stock, so we'll see how long it takes. I am curious to see if it also works on my 2012 Tundra.. if it does I'll be buying another one.

Got mine and installed it today. Fantastic little module.
Takes about 30 seconds to install, super easy.

The module is underneath the steering column, grey relay with a wiring harness on the firewall side. Plug and play into the new unit. Pretty straightforward once you get under the dash and look.

(my first post)... I'm the maker of this Tap Turn flasher module, and other AutoWindow products, and have found a great deal of interest and sales over here from friendly ft86-ers. I drive a Legacy and invented the product for my own needs first (for fun!) and then tossed it out there to see who else might.

In the meantime, I've noticed a couple of these BRZ's zooming around where I live, and have taken great interest in maybe getting one of these cars for myself. I had a similar feeling that was squashed when I sat in a Miata once years ago... as a 6'4" framed guy found it just too small to consider any further. Haven't sat in a BRZ yet, and if I do might find it sticks to my pants on the way out the door, going home with me.

So I've been lurking a bit around here... of course keeping an on this thread.

Thanks for the friendly bump...

Love this tap-to-turn module. Very easy to install and so damned handy. Thanks for putting it out there for us!
