Thanks for this. The step by step video as well as written instructions were excellent.
I used this video to see how to install the Valenti LED Rear Bumper Light on my Scion FR-S. The video was very helpful and made the install easy.
You actually typed this 😂
We are extremely glad to hear that Tommy!
I have a 2015 BRZ and wired it just like this but the brake light for the V light up.
I removed the light blue wire from the pine and attached it to the dark blue wire on the Valenti tailight.
I attached the things red wire to the res wire on the Valenti tailight
Not a problem! That is exactly what we are here for!!
Thank you for this video! Helped on my 2013 brz
The center red triangle in the middle of your third light is indeed a brake light. You can potentially cut and solder the wiring to your requested specifications but they are different than what we recommend. We do not offer any support for modifying parts other than the way we have provided it to you. If you were to do such a thing and re-wire it to your specs, feel free to do so, but we do not recommend doing so, nor do we have any support as in instructions to bring it to your spec.
Just finished installing mine on a 2015 BRZ. I know this video is a bit old but still.
-You can remove and install your third break light even with your stock/aftermarket exhaust/muffler attached, just don't forget to remove the two push pins on the bottom (left and right) of the rear bumper that's attached to the car. You'll see it when you get under. I installed mine w/o removing the exhaust/muff.
-Yes, disconnect your battery just to be safe.
How did you get the V to light up
Mine won't. I've tried connecting the light blue wire to all 4 wires on the Valenti taillight harness
Nothing
Third ? Isn’t it the 4th?
make the whole "fishing wire through hole" a bit easier: loosely tie string to original wire harness before pulling it out. The string needs to be long enough to still be in the boot once the original harness has been pulled through. Like using a cable snake. Remove the string and tie it to the new harness, then you just have to pull it back into the hole instead of stuffing around trying to push it in.
Robnoxious77 bless up my dude so happy I saw this before install. Thanks for the tip.
This video just makes it so easy for real, thanks for the details
Glad we are able to help!
I hate that the red triangle stays on. It makes the bar under it not stand out as much. I also don't like that the triangle does not light up or blink in the day time when the headlights are not on. :(
I should of got the GCS 4th brake lights. They do everything I mentioned above plus they are half the price!
What does the red wire and blue wire do on the 4th brake light and what do the red and blue wire do on the taillight?
After installing and running the wires like the video instructed.. everything went smooth. I got mine from 86 website, so colors are different. Didn't have to detach the blue from the stock connection under the plastic piece.. just snipped it and wrapped it with electrical tape..then pulled through the slit he showed near the rubble nipple. Blue doesn't even connect to anything so no threat to snip and leave. For the wiring part, I actually had to open up the coatings on the Valenti harness, expose the wires and wrap the red to red and blue to blue around each other... then solder and tape it back up. But when I turned everything on.. the freaking lights were flip flopped.. So my running V light was the break light, and the triangle break light was my running light.. so instead of taking it apart, I went back under the car where the wires plug into the Velinti directly, and switched the wires, blue to red and red to blue... worked like a charm. Green is back up light, blue is BREAK, and red is RUNNING light. Everyone out there, either my car was wired wrong to begin with, or every one of these videos I've seen is inaccurate lol. DONT USE THE TAPS... they cut your wire and don't make a solid connection. Especially if you wire right into your stock harness, they almost cut clean through it, totally optional to solder, still makes a solid connection without doing that when exposing and wrapping around. I ended up stripping the wires into my Valenti break lights and wrapping around those... and it works like a charm. (most people say to stock harness)... but those wires are way too small, and it all connects to the same place. Let me know if you have any questions if anyone ever reads this... took me about 8 hours to figure all of this out on my own. lol #noob
I just installed mine today and got everything to work great. The only thing I can't figure out is how the heck do you put the Plastic Rivets back on? I might be asking a very dumb question but I just can not figure out how to push those black small plastic rivets back on? Please help if you can? I really appreciate it and I am really sorry for asking the most dumbest question. Maybe I am dong something wrong?
Haha you are fine... so take a flat head screw driver, and you will pop the circular black piece out of the piece that surrounds it. There are 2 small divots on the top of that plastic rivet, use that flat head to separate them. Once you do, you can line everything up, and insert them in their holes. Once you get them in place, push down and the circular piece will extend it's end so it can't come back out, and you're done! Pretty much the same way you took them out, you have to put them back in.
Why does everyone making these videos just assume that you already have your exhaust removed.. lol wtf, making it look way faster than it is. Just go under your car quick and remove these clips and wires. Not like there's a huge fucking muffler blocking your access to it.
Joseph Dynan I've never thought of that lol. Must be why nobody else thinks of it. Most people who start messing with this car anhoe do the exhaust first. My mentality was make the experience of the car good for myself before making it look nice for others. I put in a 10" sub did interior lights and changed my exhaust then started thinking about how it looked to others on the outside.
The LEDs for my left brake light are out. What kind of LED do I need to replace it? Or am I gonna have to get a full taillight again...?
okay so. valenti taillights (not the bottom triangle reverse light, the two taillights) dont have a reverse light? installed mine and its only the bottom triangle boi thats lighting up in reverse
is it possible for this light to be customized to work on a 2010 Subaru Impreza Hatchback?
I can't install my third light, as my muffler is in the way... Did you remove that prior to the installation?
My valenti third brake light has the same cables except that it has an additonal black/ground loose cable the same size as the red loose cable. Do I connect this black/ground wire to the black/ground cable of the valenti tailight? Or to the chasis of one of the bolts?
Thanks
Is there a difference in using Red or Blue T taps? I've been looking up the t tap types , some people use red, some people use blue? Much thanks in advanced.
The extra wire is the power source wire. You must tap this into the tail light power source in order for the third brake light to have power! If you have more questions about Valenti Lights give us a call at (714)-582-3330 and ask for Jurrian!
Eh...I'd put it more at like a 2-3 difficulty level because you arent actually SPLICING the wire yourself but rather using those freakin awesome self splicers haha!! Love those things :) Make some tailights for the 08+ wrx Sedans!!!
I have a 2015 brz and the V will not light up
I've connected the light blue wire to all 4 of the wires on the Valenti taillight harness.
Now my shit is a mess and no god damn V
Why does the harness on the centre light come as it is if you need to cut / splice it? What does it do if you just plug it in?
for the most part this was accurate. I'm not sure if the wiring involves valenti tail lights for this video to be 100% but did not work with my tail lights. red/red , blue/blue does not work I ended up having to cross the wires for it to work red/blue, blue/red. when clamping down don't press too hard or you'll be like me and cut the wire lol. overall the video was helpful and installation was easy to do. just test the connections first without doing any splicing.
Mine too. They should not be using colors, but a pin diagram. Different 86's are different colored harness. on the male end of the driver side tail light harness the pin diagram is as follows: top left - ground, top right - Tail light (ie rear fogs, runnning light), bottom left - turn signal, bottom right - brake light..... That is with the clip being at the top of the diagram. Which means you want to splice the red wire (long excess dangly one) into the bottom right - brake light position of the tail light harness. And splice the blue wire (center wire in your 4th brake light harness) into the top right - tail light position of your tail light wire harness. In the modbargain car's case it is red/red blue/blue, in my case it is the opposite color wise, but the same position on the harness.
Had to do the same... Actually had to open up the harness, expose the wire and wrap the red to red and blue to blue around each other... then solder and tape it back up. But when I turned everything on.. the damn lights were flip flopped.. So my running V light was the break light, and the triangle break light was my running light.. so instead of taking it apart, I went back under the car where the wires plug into the Velinti directly, and switched the wires, blue to red and red to blue... worked like a charm. Green is back up light, blue is break, and red is running light. Everyone out there, either my car was wired wrong to begin with, or every one of these videos I've seen is inaccurate lol. DONT USE THE TAPS... they cut your wire and don't make a solid connection. Especially if you wire right into your stock harness, they almost cut clean through it. I ended up stripping the wires into my Valenti break lights and wrapping around those... and it works like a charm.
what kind of bolt remover are u using in 1:04. what brand and everything i want to buy the same one
Hey guys i came from germany first of all the lights are awesome.
I installed it like in your video but in your other video there is the "brakelight" ( the V in the middle ) only lightning when you brake and i want it like this. I dont want that the light is always on.How can i do this? I hope you could understand me :)
Do anything involve repining the lights?
ModBargains is there any way to wire up the rear fog light so that it doesn't blink/pulse when you apply the brakes. In order words I would just like it to function as a rear fog light and not as another brake light. Thanks.
Harman Gill there’s a video out where you reside the light unit itself. Voids the warranty tho
whats the purpose of the red wire. and where tf does it go
I didn't get any wire taps
I just installed mine today and got everything to work great. The only thing I can't figure out is how the heck do you put the Plastic Rivets back on? I might be asking a very dumb question but I just can not figure out how to push those black small plastic rivets back on? Please help if you can? I really appreciate it and I am really sorry for asking the most dumbest question. Maybe I am dong something wrong?
Take them apart. Insert outer part first then the screw in after
Are all of these handling the same with european version ?
I have a GT86 (toyota) and i don't know how to install my valenti bumper lights.
And i didn't get wire taps with mine :(
you did it? same situation
Is there any way to rewire the rear fog light in order to make it flash at brake at any time? I just did some research. It seems like with the wire connection in your video, the triangle part only flash at brake when the headlight/taillight or indicator light is on. It will not flash with DRL on only and taillight off(DRL light will be on with hand brake off, so basically no light on at this condition). Thanks.
After I installed mine 10 minutes ago, I realized the same thing. What I'm probably going to do is use a small relay that's "normally closed" so in the daytime with no power to the relay, the brake light coming on will power up BOTH the red & blue (through relay) wires making it light up and flash when brakes are on. Then when the lights are on, it will "open circuit" the relay and do the normal light on/flash with brake.
is there a way to make the red triangle from not blinking everytime you brake?
Use Option 3. I just did mine today and worked like a charm.

Followed this install for the valenti 4th brake light, but for some reason the light only works when braking and when reverse. Doesn’t blink 3-5 times like it’s supposed to and doesn’t stay on with parking lights. How do I fix this? Followed tutorial exactly except my dark blue wire was green (tested with multi meter)
Having the same issue, did u figure urs out?
So i got these lights but i dont have a red wire? I have a black wire im assuming for grounding and a brown wire. Is the brown wire suppose to be the power wire that connects to the red wire?
I got the same thing. I assumed the brown to red. blue to blue. black to body, but nothing happens.
My 4th brake light came in but it ddnt came with the wire taps. What are the specific sizes for the wire taps?
you can buy them in a electrical material store. in italian they are "rubacorrente".....maybe ask for "power stealer"

Great video, I would’ve have known what to splice if it weren’t for this video. Thank you
I have done exactly what it shows and it’s not working
I did the step by step instructions... but when I turn on my lights, something caused the ABS light on my dash board to turn on. I also noticed the red triangle doesn't blink and the red stripe of the rear bumper fog light turns off when I brake.... any ideas how to fix??
I would go back and check those crimp connectors they provide. While handy they are notorious for poor connections that may lead to electrical gremlins. If this doesn't fix it a code may have simply been throne by something unrelated that a scion dealer should be able to check for free.
I have a similar issue. My light doesn’t stay on when parking lights are on and it also does not blink when connected
How will this work on a Euro car where you have the rear fog light in the middle? Does it have all the connections so i don't need to cut anything, or do i have to do some magic? :-P Thanks!
Hello, did you find any answer since ? Thanks!
Ok thats sad but i wanted to buy from you and wrote you an email but your shipping costs where much to high.
Can you give me an instruction which cable please i could pay when you want :)
you forgot the first step, disconnect your car battery. If you short anything by accident game over
Yeah, just a new fuse. Big deal.
Hey just installed my reverse valenti using your guys vid. But when i brake my light doesnt do the flashing........ Any ideas why is that?...... Thank you and would appreciate the help.
Give us a call and a modification expert can guide you the right direction. (714)-582-3330
Same here! No blinking and the lights don’t stay on when parking lights are on
Do you still have to splice these in 2017? I just bought a kit. I can handle it, just hoping for ease cause I'm a millenial or whatever, lol.
Where is the sequential lighting?
I believe we shot these before sequential lighting came out (these were the first versions of the valenti which are the same)
I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the V lights on. My brake and reverse light works but not the V
CharREX I have the same problem bro , you ever figure it out ?
It’s Mike Avila you tap the red wire from the valenti into the red wire from the oem harness that connects to the tailight. Again tap it into the oem harness not the tailight harness
Daniel Jr Thanks bro I figured it out already lol
It’s Mike Avila oh sick!
How did they first work out the box ?
Well I only have a red wire that isn't part of the plug and I spliced it into the red tail light wire, but nothing. Reverse light works, but nothing else at all. No brakes, no V, no flashing brake light. Not too happy about it, either.
Did u find a solution for this???
What about the Toyota 86?
it's the same the toyota 86 is same
I wrote you an email thank for your fast reply here on youtube grest service i will notice that.
The best thing for you to do will be to email Jurrian here at ModBargains. His email is Jurrian @ ModBargains . Com
