I would suggest buying the glass ones. The plastic housing on the stock brz/frs one only allows certain crap bulbs or you have to buy a set of led ones from china.

the FRS does not have the wiring harness so you have to wire them independently

Any kind of switch will do

The frs has no headlight leveler switch. That spot is empty and a perfect Place for the switch

still would be nice if some1 had a source for that too so we could wire them correctly for A) a true OEM look and B) save that slot for something truly custom

Yup i feel you but dealing with the steering wheel stalk will definitely not be a plug and play for the frs

Would an OEM tC foglight switch work in that spot? If so, yoiu could use order that switch. It's just an on/off toggle switch.
