Switching. I have wired the power into the switch from the high beam signal so that the high beam must be on for the extra lights to come on. More importantly one switch turns off all the extra light.
@@ThePedalDance good to know, very dangerous lights. they'd be great out where i live though, tons of deer and other small animals especially up by the curvy roads. was install easy? do you plan on making any other videos about it?
Yeah, it's so dark here & tons of animals. I will make another video with different camera setup to better capture the light performance. Install was not easy on 2nd gen BRZ because no one makes brackets for these cars. Diode Dynamics makes brackets for every other Subaru, plus a kit for 1st gen BRZ to replace fog lights with SS3 pods but obviously that doesn't work for 2nd gen. I bought the standard SS3 pods that include universal mounting brackets. Universal brackets alone are too short by 2-3in to clear grill opening when installed to underside of steel crash bar. I used riv-nuts to install ditch light brackets for F-150 to underside of steel crash bar, then mounted Diode Dynamics universal brackets to repurposed F-150 brackets. Aimed lights & tightened all hardware before reinstalling front bumper. The wiring & everything else was super easy. If you're good with metal work, I'm sure making a custom bracket would be easier & most likely better. I did find free 3D Print plans for 2022+ BRZ brackets for SS2 pods (search reddit & forums). I already had the SS3 pods, so that wasn't an option. I have photos of install on IG: LiftedBRZ
I figured out how to better capture these lights on camera. Follow up video coming soon! 📷

not that i'd use it for this, but in theory, how well would it blind an oncoming truck trying to mimic the sun?
In theory, these would completely blind oncoming traffic. Definitely not recommended. Not to mention it’d be illegal. I wouldn’t do it either.
