Door Step Lights for FRS?

Good day
I removed the door step reflector, it actually has a bulb holder, looked inside for a wiring harness, didn't see anything.
Anyone considered this addition?

I think that would be nice to add also. Especially on the passenger side, it can be tricky to get into.

If there's no harness it's going to be painful. Like, take apart entire door painful.

Scions are typically pre-wired for illuminated door sills and interior illumination kits. Although this is built in a Subaru plant, I wouldn't doubt that it's the same case. I haven't looked at the accessory list in a while, but I would assume that Scion is planning on releasing illuminated door sill protectors soon.

I don't see a harness, but you can probably splice for power somewhere.

it would be helpful to see how the BRZ door looks and where they are pulling power from...

I pulled apart my door today, unfortunately..
I dont own a limited & the bare door looks identical to the picture posted above.

I do however have the subaru part number for the door step lights.
"COURTESY LAMP AY CLR" - 94256CA000

I just received mine.
I was planning on retrofitting my BRZ with them but it is also not a plug an play affair.

BRZ wiring manual was just released so Ill break it out w/ my multimeter when I have time and see what we can use.
Hopefully theres something in there.

The FR-S should be identical...i think?
