Tom's tail lights just arrived! Installing now...

Just installed my Tom's tail lights!

The install was an absolute breeze as these are UDSM wiring spec for plug & play use. They come with a new turn signal relay which is a simple swap under the driver's side lower dash.















I love them! I'll have to wait until this weekend to snap some better shots of them outdoors.

Mine arrive today too! Are you able to lay on the floor and reach the relay or do you have to pull off the lower dash cover thing?

I followed this DIY just for the relay part and found it to be very straight forward getting the lower dash panel off. The relay is easier to get at from behind. It's hanging on a little white slotted plastic hanger. Get a short flathead screwdriver as the DIY instructs. Take the screwdriver and bring it up under the dash behind the relay and stick it right in the white hanger and give it a light push and then wiggle the relay away from you. Don't pull it down, slide it back.

wow, Its been 10 months for me and I have 15600 miles! Do you only drive it on the weekends? Also how did you make the plastic intake "mouth" part of your brake duct system?

thanks

It's my daily driver but I have the ability to work from home when I need to. My office is about 5 miles away when I need to be there.

Just lucky, I guess...

Well those are all custom @Touge Factory pieces so they may have a more accurate answer, but I believe they took a generic plastic duct and shaved it down to perfectly fit flush against the back of the BRZ's bumper grille.

That was a sweet WRX, I knew I'd be safe parking next to him

Anyone with Tom's tail lights think the supplied turn signal relay makes a worse sound than the stock relay when the signal is activated?
@swift996 @switchlanez @F1point4

To me it sounds really dinky now. Meh.

[swift996]

I didn't notice any change

It does make a slightly louder click and blinks at a slower frequency by milliseconds. But I like the change... TOM'S tails signal more authoritatively than stock, hehe.
