You know what? I would get that at $30, for something that can easily be reversed.

ETA on the PnP kit?

I like it. Very stock looking. And I'm not a big lighting mods guy. For $10 to $30 this seems like a great little mod to differentiate the G

How much and when for the PNP connector? (approximately)
I'm sold. I want the PnP version. Would that mean no cutting, or tapping any existing wiring? Just your harness between the car's connector and the light?

Correct, just uses factory plugs and makes it easier to install

Here's the install video for the 2015 WRX/STi as a reference:

I knew you guys would want the PnP version lol. I think we will have the G37 Coupe connectors first (Paul has a G37 Coupe) and the G37 Sedan connectors will be available shortly.

It's a shame that they don't use the same connectors :-(

Weird about the connector differences Coupe to Sedan. I didn't know that.

I put this on my list for Summer, but feel free to PM me directly when they become available.

There was a guy on this forum who was selling a setup he made which did this exact function. He put a few pieces together into an "assembly" and all you did was cut 2 wires and plug his device in. I didn't want to cut any wires, so I never paid too much attention.

The PnP however has my attention.

Nick, that's a great video. Very professional. Your coworker Paul has excellent presentation skills.
Haha, yeah but Mike has been rocking this mod for over a year I think and Andy Rushing aka buGfresh is the innovator of that kit lol.

I was just going to ask you if we can utilize the old bulb, but this video pretty much answered that question.

What would it take for the old bulb to blink with the LEDs, but with reversed timing? In other words, when the LED blinks, the old bulb is off and when the old bulb blinks, the LED is off. That's not going to be possible with just this kit I'm sure.

If our blinker wasn't behind red plastic, I'd just use it as another reverse light, but with it being red...I'm not sure what I want to do now. I'll probably leave it alone.

It can be wired a variety of ways. Changing up the blink rate and timing for the old bulb will require a more custom setup, as you mentioned.

Yeah he also wanted like $100 so I never inquired any further. But $30 for a PnP sounds much more worthwhile.
