OEM BRZ fog light install issue
I bought the OEM fog light kit for my 2018 BRZ tS, since it doesn't come with fog lights:
https://parts.subaru.com/p/Subaru__/...4510CA150.html installed the fog lights into place and there was a wiring harness taped up I connected to that but I ran into an issue, the driverside dash doesn't have a cable that looks like this as the instructions says Instead somewhere higher up near the dash i found 1 with blue tape that looks like this: guessing its the optional plug this and not what i'm looking for does anyone have any clues as to which wires are used? I got no idea it has to be something somewhere because there was definitely a wiring harness that I connected the lights to. Any help is appreciated |

Looking at the installation instructions, Number nine looks like it says the taped up plug is on the cable running to the trunk switch. It's pretty easy to remove the end cover to the dash. Are you looking there? Your images indicate you are looking in the footwell.

you didn't mention it, but did you take off the large panel that has the trunk switch in it? the only way i could see the harness is with that panel dropped down. otherwise it's taped too high up to be visible from down below the panel.
