I started by splitting the wire to the some into 2. One goes back to the dome and the other gets split again. I ran wire to each side of the car off of this splitter. Getting the wires through the looms are the hardest parts. I used a brake cable as a fish line. To mount the lights, I used double sided tape to adhere them to the bottom of the door panel. This setup allows for the courtesy lights to function the same as the dome light, no additional switches added. I will probably be wiring in some footwell lighting next week, again pulling power from the dome. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Fixed the bumper gap issue.
Ther only thing I am worrying about now is the rust. I drilled two holes on the fender. Even if I repaint them by touch up and apply some WD40 on both shoelace and the hoels after the paint was dry, I am still not 100% confident. Since the shoelace might suck water, the hole will rust pretty quick if I did not paint them so well. But anyway, it works. .

I got 7500 mile service today.
However, the rental FR-S I've been driving is much quieter than my used FR-S from Carmax. I'm going to have to put it up on jack stands to see what parts of the exhaust I am missing...
