It comes with a wiring harness and an OEM on/off switch BUT the harness plugs into an existing module in the car and there is supposed to be unused plugs on the car itself near the front bumper

USDM cars didn’t come with those plugs attached to the oem harness up front. Seems like only JDM cars got the harness with the unused plugs

Essentially using a “T” harness between the sidemarker plugs and the plugs on the fog light itself. Still fully removable if the bumper needs to come off

This way it turns on when my headlights are on

Auto-x today. Spent way too long trying the get the hex key into rear damper adjusters (it's blind with the full interior in), so I ordered a ball hex screwdriver for next time. This was the first event since I put on the suspension.

Did you buy the kit from Subimods? There's is plug-and-play and they come on when the running lights are on.

Nope bought it from Japanparts and saved a bunch of $$$

The harness I have is essentially the same as theirs.

Not bad, just looked at their site. About $100 cheaper.

Installed my duckbill. Got to admit it was slightly terrifying drilling into the car.

What Toyota color should I pick for my Sapphire Blue Pearl BRZ? Would TRUENO BLUE be a perfect match?

Your car looks great by the way! The spoiler was the only thing I really loved about the GR86 version.
