BRZ fog lights on premium model

Has anybody ever tried installing fog lights on their premium BRZ? I tried searching on here but couldn't find anything. Any idea? TIA

Same process except you're using a different bezel.

I was thinking more of an oem install. Without tapping into anything. When I did it on my tC, there was already a female connector for the fogs. Just had to undo the tape. Since it's an option.

I just did the oem kit on my 2016 premium model. VERY easy. Found the factory part number for sale on eBay. $150 shipped to my door. 99% plug and play. The kit comes with new DRLs that have a T harness for the fogs. Car is 100% pre wired for fog lights. Put the switch in the dash empty area next to the trunk pop, spliced in 2 wires to the factory wiring next to that wire look for the headlight level switch, and done! If this forum would let me upload pics from my iPhone I would post them for you, but it says the file size is too large. Any way I can upload them without sending them to photobucket or another hosting site?

Dealer wanted 400, there are a LOT of kits on eBay for 250/300, I searched by the part number and found a guy selling for $125 plus shipping. I was concerned that he listed it wrong or something and that what showed up would not be it, but I was ecstatic when it arrived 3 days later and was 100% the entire brand new kit. So my suggestion is search the internets by part number. It even comes with the screws and speed clips.
