I can get JDM 86 lights for a decent price, used. With ballasts and bulbs usually. It just takes some searching around.

And apparently people freaking out about the "ZOMG RHD lights blinding people and you go to jail!", yea so apparently these lights auto levels them selves, and since the FR-S does not have a levelizer like in the JDM GT86, they seem to just be in a "default" setting type and the light cut-off is perfect for LHD as well. I've sold 2 sets already, its not voodoo magic.

Check out my build thread, I bought the latest set from @BRZPDX. A used set, but works like a charm thus far. (Not trying to hijack this thread)

I'm pretty sure OEM are closer to 5000K in color than 4300K.

4300K would produce a warm white color, there's nothing warm about the OEM led strip.



I find that the Winjet LED strip is around 5500K, which is the temperature used with Volkswagen LED lighting.
