my guess would be that the USD harness doesn't have that plug...

is it actually a J-Spec light, or just aftermarket? Im curious, never seen this before

I would just wire it up to the parklights though

huh.....I wasn't aware that the J-Spec FTP's had a light bulb in them..learn somethign new everyday...

Well I would just wire them up to the parklights (however that circuit is taxed enough as it is) perhaps running new wires with a seperate switch would be the safest way...


edit: Also-please take into account that I didn't rip on you for spending $200 on one of the most pointless mods Ive ever heard of for these cars

WAAAAA... I want that look... but I figured out how to install the thing... to install it I gotta give up my side markers light... I got the right side in, but the left side, the plug is underneath the fat air intake... Damn...

If you arent using the foglights you can jam the FTP harnesses in them and they'll work fine WITH THE FOGLIGHT SWITCH!. Some people will say the wiring is rated for the 55watt foglight bulbs but I've been running it this way for over a year with no issues at all.

87GTR- do you have a link for where you bought those LEDs or what brand/model they are?
