I prefer the OEM fit and finish. Clean tidy and covered under warranty. And you can dim them with the dimmer switch. Im still under warranty still so dont wanna void it. I did my OEM kit today and they look amazing. Now I gotta figure out the rear. I wish you would have hardwired them to show that route. In my opinion the rear lights would probably look better if you mount them under the back of the front seats if you can find a spit to mount them anyways. That reflection would drive me crazy.

I'm 99% sure that OEM connector that's inside the center that isn't plugged into anything is for the optional CD player! 5:10

The one thing I did that increased the difficulty was buy aluminum bar stock and cut to fit the brackets under the drivers and passenger seat. It gives a good flat place to mount, you can angle it for the best lighting, and it isn't blocked by the rear passengers' legs. Everything else was basically exactly the same as this video. It was one of the first things I did when I got my VA. I did however choose to get some amazon ones that are controlled by a bluetooth app and have all colors/patterns/programmable/etc.

Instead of the glue I would of bonded the led straps onto some velcro to make it stick to the carpret. But other then that awesome job. Not a fan of cutting into factory harnesses. And this works out.

@@StreetInspired1 hmm maybe wiring a dimmer in there is the way to sway me. I'd have to find a dimmer that looks good and can be tucked in there attached, don't really want it dangling. Love your work by the way!

Some of the light strips are controlled via an app to change colors etc. Possibly have the ability to dim from the app. I have seen others mention govee as a brand they have used

how do you like the new wrx vs the old, and have you thought about STI drivetrain :) ?
@StreetInspired1 Жыл бұрын
Honestly it's a close call. I like them both a lot. I'm thinking about making a video on my thoughts comparing the two. But I have definitely considered the sti drivetrain. Basically, if the transmission explodes I'll probably do it but I probably won't do it until that happens lol

For sure. You can always get an add-a-fuze and wire them into the headlight fuse or the wiring for the parking lights. Shouldn't be too hard just finding the correct wire.

When I started to do some LED DOME LIGHT mods to my 2022 WRX, I blew a lot of fuses. This video is more of a hack versus an OEM install. I prefer the Subaru illumination. Its clean and plugs directly to illumination controls. Sorry dude but no thanks.😢
@StreetInspired12 ай бұрын
No offesne but calling amything besides OEM a "Hack" would illiminate a lot of really cool stuff. Blowing fuses while installing a dome light is definitely user error. If you're having issues like that I would disconnect the battery anytime you're messing with wiring.

@@StreetInspired1 the electronics on the 2022+ WRX are more sensitive with drawing current and amperage. That said, any tapping of wiring or existing is a risk, which is the main concern. Not to mention And it wasnt user error I had the LED lights done at a reputable automotive pro shop that works on alarms, stereo installs.
