Those with Spyder LED Headlights

How did you guys install them? The harness from the Spyder headlights wont fit the harness to the car. You can see the prong size is different. I thought this was plug n play?

I ordered this set after emailing FT86Speedfactory asking if these would fit my BRZ. Their CS rep emailed me back telling me yes, they would fit. Since they are a forum vendor, I trusted their judgement and ordered myself a set.

If you got this one...

http://www.phasteksport.com/2013-Sci...lights-blk.htm

It says "Subaru BRZ not available".

It's probably because the BRZ has standard HIDs while the FRS has halogens... which is why the connectors are wrong.

I have never seen that website.

I bought this exact model under the same vendors confidence they would fit.

http://ft86speedfactory.com/spyder-l...halo-1128.html

I am hoping that FT86 SpeedFactory might have harnesses. If not, I really do hope that I would not have to pay the 20% restocking fee and pay for the return shipping charges.

@FT-86 SpeedFactory contacted me. They will send me a shipping label since I will getting a refund. Kudos to them for doing this. I will wait until they receive some BRZ specific headlights before I switch.

Yes, very sorry about that. Spyder makes a specific kit for the BRZ that does not come with a bulb, as you take your factory xenons and install them in the Spyders.

We should have some more information available on them soon.

Again, we apologize for the mishap
