  1. Looks good! But I agree - disable the OEM halogen turn signals And perhaps put white LED bulbs in there and use them as additional DRLs? That would be a unique look! Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  2. Subscribed, I'd like to do this also! Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  3. Still incredibly happy with my footwell lighting, thankful to the OP for this mod! Finally have a colour which I'm happy with which matches the OEM ambient lighting perfectly ad you can see from the pics http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170625_211050.jpg http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170625_211125.jpg http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170625_211313.jpg Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  4. So I ended up buying the dimmer single LED option you shared from Super Brights and I was so happy that the colour finally matched the other ambient blue lights! However as you suggested, it was quite dim and I missed the brightness that the cheaper alternatives offered.. Soooo, now I'll be ordering another set of blue 4 LED bulbs from them haha..

  5. Didn't have a set of 4 bulbs so I have blue in the front and ice blue in the back.. trying to decide which is better.. hmm http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/GIF%20Maker/1495611272544.gif Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  6. Oh and a quick note to anyone attempting this in future - for me personally the trickiest part was fitting those rubber T10 bulb connectors into the panel piece in the footwell. It was an incredibly tight fit and I had to use a razor to shave off some of the rubber to make it fit.. but finally got it working in the end Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  7. So I have been drooling over this mod since the moment I joined the 6th gen forums and after gradually acquiring all of the components I finally got around to hooking it up. With my lack of electrical knowledge I had little hopes that it would work but after doing the wiring, grounding it and tapping the hazard illumination, voila it works! I have the wiring running to the back also just didn't have time to ground them and connect up before it got dark. It looks awesome, however I definitely want to experiment with colours and try to find an LED which matches the rest of the blue lighting in the cabin. Currently the standard blue has a bit of a cheap ricer look I feel. Am considering changing the wiring the tap through the map lights so the lights aren't on always when driving. If I do this I will definitely swap them out to white LEDs to give it the OEM/premium look/feel. Anyway, thank you endlessly OP - this has been an interesting and rewarding lesson in electrical work! http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170520_192143.jpg Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  8. Guys - sorry for the re-bump but I was just hoping for some guidance on wiring. In order to splice one wire into two - I don't have any of those three way wire connectors so would it be acceptable to just use a butt connector with 1 wire in one end and 2 wires in the other like the picture below? Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  9. Hey guys - please forgive my novice electrical knowledge but I am not sure of what the part is which you use to connect the three wires together - ie the 1 wire from the power source to split it to the 2 lights Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  10. Dipped my wheels today. So happy with the result! http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170423_003913.jpg http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170423_003930.jpg http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170423_003757.jpg http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/20170423_003830.jpg Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  11. Damn that looks so nice. I picked up my 4 cans of plasti dip and a can of glossifier yesterday, planning to do the exact same thing on my wheels. Do you have some more shots of the whole car? Would be very keen to see! Sent from my SM-N920I using Tapatalk
  12. Following on from my post above. If you look at this photo below of my car with its stock wheels, it appears that my wheels have a thicker profile than the tyres on the 18" STI rims above - would you agree? I wouldnt want it any lower profile than it is currently. http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae108/muncee/Mobile%20Uploads/received_10158494840435284.jpeg
  13. Hmmm I don't mind a bit of extra rubber.. to me the tyres in the picture above of the 18" rims looks to be really low profile - I honestly would prefer a little more rubber than that.. hmm So the 17" WRX wheels I really like the look of. These come with the original Dunlop tyres from the WRX and are listed at $670 Whereas the 18" black STI wheels have no tyres and are listed at $999.. however the owner has said he would accept a trade in of my stock wheels which he has offered a trade in price of $750 for my wheels without tyres. Decisionso, decisions haha...
  14. Thanks for the details, I appreciate the shared knowledge! By the way, in the below photo from earlier in the thread - are this the same 17" WRX rims I posted a couple posts above?
