yeah I cut down the 14 min video to something around 7 min, but most of that was me trying to set up my camera in a decent angle and getting the tools needed ready...

Those light look good. I wonder if they make any that use LED's for the signals and reverse as well.

http://www.amazon.com/StreetGlow-SGL.../dp/B001BBY4IG Dont know how they look/ perform, I might give them a try later on, cause im probably going to be painting these basicly exactly like I did my last set, minus the LED bottom part of the lights. |

やりすぎだ~

Very nice alternative to stock lights. I saw that on eBay, too. But I think you're the only one that bought and installed it. Good DIY :).
Just curious - why did you start your car at the end? |

http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19099 I like the looks of these more than the JDM lights. My Stereo system puts enough stress on my stock battery as is, so I usually just turn the car on, and not run off the battery. That and I dont think the reverse lights would turn on if the cars not on? I could be wrong. |

The Relay replaces the factory indicator relay , it is found on the top of the steering mount under the dash , turn your hazards on and listen for it ,its a pain to get too. the LED Relay can be bought for about $20.00US |
