Paul, thanks for the helpful video. I wouldn't have had the courage to open the headlights on a brand new car if you didn't make it look so easy. Completed the job this past weekend and although it is time consuming, it isn't hard at all. With the chrome painted black and your c-light, it is looking how it should have came from Subaru in the first place. My only gripe is that the yellow wire in the pigtail is not long enough to reach down to tap into the turn signal in the lower bumper. I had to cut that mesh sleeve off of the pigtail harness to have a long enough wire. But then the other three wires are too long which isn't a big deal, just zip-tied them. For true plug and play though, that pigtail harness with the male connectors should have the yellow wire like 2 ft longer than the white, black and red. Awesome product though. Can't beat it for the price and I think looks better than Subispeeds new aftermarket complete headlight which costs over $1,000
I like the video, though I wish there was one for the limited headlights as there are some significant differences. also some mounting tips / suggestions for the drivers would've been nice as well.
Here at 10:30 you don't show how you leave the plug for the oem c-light bulb. You simply leave the adapter out ? Wouldn't that open the opportunity for condensation?
Doing this set up right now actually, and yes it will. Pretty disappointing that they didn't give at least a little grommet to feed that wire through but oh well I guess
does anyone know of any tutorials on installing these on a 2017 subaru outback? i just ordered the ones they make for it but i can only find guides for the wrx and im a little nervous
Hmm, I'm not sure about that! Feel free to give us a call at 314-205-3033 Monday-Friday 10 a.m.- 5 p.m. CST, or shoot us an email at contact@diodedynamics.com, and our service team would be happy to help you with that.
Any chance on releasing a video for the WRX limited / STI? I know there are other videos on RUclips but I'm interested how we're "supposed" to install them directly from Diode Dynamics.
Is there any chance you guys could make a tutorial video like this for the 13-17 XV Crosstrek Switchback C-Lights that you guys sell? You have a showcase video but no tutorial (unless I just haven't found it yet) I really want these lights but I'm not sure I could do it using only the various WRX tutorials that are all over RUclips. Theres videos for the LED bulb replacement on the Crosstrek but not the full LED Switchback C-Light strip upgrade.
+Taylor Clark Next time we have a Crosstrek into our garage, we will be sure to shoot more videos! In the meantime, please don't hesitate to give us a call at 314-205-3033 Monday-Friday 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. CST, or email us at contact@diodedynamics.com, and we can walk you through any installation questions!
+Diaper Maverick Hi there! These boards are a direct replacement for the factory boards and fit right underneath the factory reflector lens. Once the lens is put back in place and the clips are snapped into their original position, it holds the boards in place. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us!
Can you make a video showing how to install the drl harness ? I’m quiet confused one end of the is a stock connector and the other two wires go where ?
+Diaper Maverick To run these C-Lights as a DRL, you will need to install our DRL Harness as well. Check out the harness and our installation video at the links below! DRL Harness: ruclips.net/video/-sD2D2Wpz1w/видео.html Installation video: ruclips.net/video/-sD2D2Wpz1w/видео.html

You sent me the newer replacement DRL Harness to me. I installed it and removed your original DRL harness. The flickering issue seems to be gone. With the new harness do you need to still use the white pigtail wire and tap into the parking light. With out taping the parking light I'm not getting power to the C-Lights when the headlights are on.
+hellboy2pt0 Yes, that is correct. We recommend tapping the white wire from the C-Light pigtail to the red wire coming out of the OEM C-Light or Sidemarker. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to contact us!

Yet another great video and easy to follow instructions. Installed the TaT kit as well and love them a year later! In this video it starts when the light is already removed from the vehicle...for someone whom has not removed these from the car before, do the written instruction cover this step? I was going to order today and wanted to have my DRL configured as well. thoughts on what I should do if I want to run this setup with the DRL configured as well but never removed the lights from the vehicle?
+GR8GUY54 Thanks for your support! The installation guide that comes with this product provides instructions for after the headlights have been removed from the vehicle. Removing the headlights does require taking the bumper and radiator shroud off the vehicle.

Check out the link below to find one near you. www.diodedynamics.com/store/index.php/find-dealers/
+anthony topalian Thanks for reaching out! The wires should be run through an existing factory hole or grommet in the headlight. The headlight would still need to be completely sealed to prevent any moisture or condensation. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us!
If you plug in the optional DRL harness into the factory headlamp connector where he's pointing at around 9:10, where do you plug the connector from the main harness (the gray one) that was initially connected to the headlights?
This is the old process. We have since come out with a newer DRL harness. With this new process, the factory headlight harness will plug back in like normal, and the new DRL harness will plug into the factory DRL resistor box. There are two wire leads coming off of the DRL harness that will run to the red wire on the wire pigtail on either headlight.
Is it common for the switch back to not light up or the c light itself to not come on at times? I’ve changed the tap connection to a stronger one and that last a day until it rained the next day

+smotonaga (VersuS HD) That is a great question! The glue on the STi headlamp and the glue used on the BRZ are two different glues.

for some odd reason my cables seem to be loose because c light would sometimes be off and when i tap the plastic undercoverthe where cabels are it would turn on again.
Does anyone know if you can cut the pre existing drl bulb and housing out of the circuit? I tried calling Diode Dynamics and they didn’t have an answer. Thanks.
Update - you can cut the pre existing DRL bulb and socket out of the circuit and solder the new LED wires directly instead of using the provided snap on connectors. Just finished doing this and can confirm it works.
@@charlielapp2427 so you cut out the bulb on the headlight that was originally used in the C-light and soldered the pigtails to the headlight wiring?

I just installed these not to about 2 weeks ago and one of the sides just gave out. The swtichback amber color still works when i use it. Any thoughts Diode Dynamics??
+Diode Dynamics so i just checked all the wiring in my car. Everything seems to be wired up correctly. White to red for parking lights, black to black for ground and amber to blue for the turn signals. The white parking lights are still is not working for one side. I put the stock c light bulb back in and its lights up so i know it cant be the factory wirings. The only thing i can think of is theres something wrong with the wiring itself or the bulbs are shot.

+Czaa Diaz If you mean do you have to use the turn signal option in the c-light, no you don't.

I also would like to match a nice bright front turn signal...basically I need fogs, front turn and this clight. my back looks awesome, can you help make my front look just as nice?
I'll order this week.

why nothing in the limited/sti headlight
+Tim Liston While the base model and Limited/STi headlight are different, installation is very similar and will also work for your vehicle. Feel free to contact us for further installation instructions!
So I'm in the process of installing these on my car. What do you recommend doing to fill the gap where the wire is coming out of the headlight (where the 194 bulb was located previously)?
+rmenz84, we recommend using rubber butyl to seal up any holes in your headlamp. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to contact us!
How do you seal the c-light hole? Sent an email.
+Aaron Wheeler Thank you for your email! We look forward to assisting you.
What ended up being the solution for sealing the hole ?
Ray Pieczynski silicone bro
I'm not familiar with using silicone. Is their a particular kind you used or would recommend ?
Ray Pieczynski I use what I use at work. Clear RTV silicone Adhesive Sealant....can find it at Lowe's or Home Depot
how do you seal where the stock parking light housing used to be? thanks a bunch!
+greg dickey Thanks for reaching out! Please send us an email at contact@diodedynamics.com so we can discuss this with you!
Do the c-lights come with the ability to be used as a turn signal or is that additional
+Bill Nye These C-Lights will blink amber along with your factory turn signal; there is no modification or extra harness required for that function.
Updates on the DRL harness?
