BRZ Illumination Kit

Does anyone know for sure what exactly is included with the Illumination Kit accessory on the 2013 BRZ? My dealer is not sure but he thinks for the price it's likely to include cup holders as well as foot well lighting.

Thanks,

Joe

Uh... from what I can recall from the Japanese booklet (its somewhere, just search the forums, I can't quite find it at the moment), it looks like some leds that light up the foot area

I have footwell lighting in my car... red leds everywhere
with the brz tho i rather only focusing on the tach.

Given that the cup holders in the BRZ are just a removable tray I would agree with your dealer.

Who needs/wants light up cup holders anyway?

Yeah, since the cupholders are removable, I don't think they will be illuminated. Looks like just cheap lights in the footwells, nothing more unfortunately. I was hoping for some ambient lighting.

The upholders are just a removable insert, and there is a power outlet right there. If you really want lighted upholders it should be easy enough to do a mod to add them.

My biggest concern is where my iPhone dock will go.

anyone installed this ?

Yes. I have the illumination kit from Subaru. Its just footwell lighting. No cup holder.

Much more complicated then 2008+ WRX Footwells.

sousuke86 · 01-22-2014, 03:18 PM

Comes in blue or red. I had mine installed at the port. I will take pictures of them when I get home. It's literally 1 led on each foot well.

Does anyone know how to disable this kit?

Is it plug and play from a harness behind the factory nav ?

How was the level of difficulty of the install ?

thanks
