Omg!!! Thank god for you sir!! Ive had these on my car and hooked up as indicators only for the past year and hadnt found a clear video showing which wire to tap into .I knew the door panel had to taken off and the wire run through down the mirror but what wires tapped into for power never shown so thank you! I will do this twomorw! Legend!

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Glad to have helped! I too had trouble finding a clear video or direction on how to wire them up. Decided to figure it out for myself and make the video for people like me and you. Let me know if you have any questions.

[@0maMatt]

Installed mine on my sti today thanks to your video and showing where to tap into , I wasn’t going to do it myself until I watched thanks .

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Glad to have helped!

[@squealswhenwet735]

Thanks for the video. Just got mine done and really like them. I also did the JDM bezels w/aftermarket DRLs so these match up well. Have no issue with the wire tap and I appreciate your delineating that for us. Also no need to remove the mirror glass. An 11" zip tie was easily inserted through the grommet, conduit and housing and then with the wire taped to it, pulled it back thru. For an oem look I covered the white wire with 1/8" flex conduit as well. Thanks again.

[@chandlercarlson2412]

Wired mine up a few days ago, ran the DRL wire to an add a fuse and what a pain in the butt! Getting the wire through the door grommets sucked but I didn't want to tap into the wires. Great detailed video tho!! I think they make the car look amazing especially at night.

[@Mountain_Soldier]

Watched from start to end. Amazing video bud, you just answered a lot of questions. Hopefully I can get it done next month once I get my vacations approved.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Glad I could help! Always like hearing these comments the best. That is what I make the videos for. Thanks for the support!

[@jaredm5678]

Looks clean man I like the idea of them being DRLs. Definitely a good addition to the car

[@edwinlasalle3115]

What wire on the passenger side? Edit: The passenger side on a 2018 WRX is the green/black wire on the larger of the two harnesses. It's two wires over from the black ground wire. The driver side is the same wire as shown in this video!

[@nikko9_wrx]

I have a 19 WRX base, is there a lead wire/plug in the mirror from the factory to plug the turn signal into? Or did the turn signal come with a wire/plug to run?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

base and premium wrx's did not come with the turn signals in the mirrors. You will need to purchase the wire harness kit to get them to work properly. I do not believe it is already ran into the mirror.

[@nikko9_wrx]

@@Scoobyfreak86 I figured as much. Guess I can always take off the mirror cap and look to be sure. Thanks!

[@Mountain_Soldier]

@Scoobyfreak, Hey Brother, hopefully everything is good. I had finally some free time to install the sequential turn signal lights. But I ran into an issue with the wiring. I tapped that yellow with blue wire and the DRL function turned on, but all my other accessories ( Power lock/window) stopped working. Is there any other wire I can tap without loosing the accessories or getting into the fuse box? Thanks!

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Did you plug everything back in? If so, check all the wires Incase you split a wire. You may need to reset your auto windows since they were unplugged. I just posted a video on how to do this as well.

[@jobseach5411]

Thank you! love your videos. I have installed this on my 21 STI limited. The passenger side light stays on even after I locked the doors. Any idea why it's happening?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Hm wondering if you tapped into a wrong wire.

[@mahjong234]

Hello! Great vid. How did you get the mirror plate off? I’m struggling to unclip it...

[@Scoobyfreak86]

The best way to do it is push the mirror all the way up. Then you can get your fingers underneath and pull up and out.

[@wil_wrx]

hey just did mines it was workin fine now when i put the key to off position to like just listen to the radio the driver side mirror stays on how wierd is this

[@Scoobyfreak86]

They should both turn off once the key comes out. If the window switch lights are on, the mirror lights will be on.

[@wil_wrx]

Scoobyfreak86 yea it was workin good once the key comes out yea they turn off and and once the key is to on positive before you start the car the light are on but when you turn it off and like listening to the radio the passenger turns off and the driver stays on

[@SuperNoe132]

@@Anthony-kx5ls yes bro I did. It turns out I was trying to splice the wrong cable lmfao. Take a look at the color of the cable you wanna splice really closely. Two cables look almost the same color. I forget the color but I know he mentions it in the vid. It didn't help I was working on it at night. I gave up and the next morning I gave it another go in daylight and found out the cable I was trying to splice was the wrong color. It had power even when the car was off. I spliced the other cable which looked very similar color and it worked. When I turn off my car the lights turn off in the mirror signals

[@jeremysantosa]

Hi, I'm from Australia and my car is obviously a right hand drive. On my passenger side, I don't have a green / black wire on my harness ? Would you be able to help me ? I can show you some photos of my harness, but can't upload any on here. Thanks

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Hi Jeremy. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the colors on a non us spec car. My guess it’s the driver side colors I mentioned as they are just swapped over.

[@melbab8454]

Thanks and great content.. what is the green/black wire on the passenger side and the yellow/blue wire on the driver's side power that you tap into? Thanks again

[@Scoobyfreak86]

It is the power to the window switch lights.

[@dwaynemanning2898]

How to install a switch to turn them on and off when ever you please?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

You would need to wire it independently than tapping into wires.

[@avantnarde2815]

Thank you for this video. you saved a bunch of people. I have a question too, since you run 265s for your tyres, will it hurt the diff if you run 285s?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

No need to run 285 on these cars with relatively stock power. Too much tire. 265 is the biggest I would go.

[@avantnarde2815]

Scoobyfreak86 with a widebody then it would be more so necessary instead?

[@alberttovar]

How have these lights held up? Any fading or burned out LEDs? Just curious if you would do it again. Thanks brother.

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Still working and looking as good as new!

[@thwhitepolarbear8865]

I have a 18 WRX, followed your whole Video for the drivers side but my passenger side doesn’t have a green wire with a black line, I’ve got a red wire with black line, is that the one to tap into?

[@Scoobyfreak86]

Hm that is strange. Subaru is known for changing up plugs/wires all the time. I’m not entirely sure, but I would give it a try. If you have a wire tester handy, that will help narrow down which one you need. I would give the red/black one a shot and see what happens.

[@thwhitepolarbear8865]

Hey scoobyfreak! So I had my mechanic do the wire tapping (I didn’t trust myself) and now my passenger side window rolls down, but when I go to roll it up, it rolls up like an inch at a time. Also, my driver side master switch for the passenger window isn’t working at all. Do you know of anyone who might have had this issue? I’ve tried the window reset but that doesn’t work. I’ve also disconnected the battery, reconnected and tried the reset again. Unfortunately, they didn’t work either. Any suggestions?

Are you sure you are re-calibrating correctly? Follow my tutorial. The windows have to be re-calibrated. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nomoq2SEiM6Zprc

Scoobyfreak86 I have tried every method, including your tutorial, for the reset. I’m wondering if it’s a CAN bus problem, or maybe my mechanic tapped the wrong wire.

Awesome video, and thank you for the step-by-step instruction. I have a 2017 WRX premium, and It didn't originally have the turn signal option. I bought the turn signals from your link and purchased all the other necessary parts but I don't have the wire harness the turn signal plugs into. Any suggestions on where I can find it?

You can pick them up from Subaru or buy OEM STI mirrors.

@@xil3ntkha0s I wasn’t able to get everything working b/c I didn’t have the harness. In retro spec if I could have examined someone’s harness I could have made a simple one.
