I always thought the factory reflectors on the lower bumper were rather tacky, especially with the pizza slice orientation.
I picked up some LED reflectors the same size as the factory reflectors without the pizza slice look.
There is a 10mm nut on each side holding the reflector in place.
I had to drill a small hole to run the wiring.
Almost there...
And the end result. I wired these to the running lights only. The LED is 2 stage and has the option to illuminate even brighter when braking. That wasn't the look I really wanted and I'm happy with just having functioning reflectors that only come on and stay lit at night without the pizza look.

I tapped into the stock tail light harness. I believe there is also three wires if I remember correctly. Black, green, and green/black. Black is for ground, green is for the brake light, and green/black should be for the driving lights. Give that a try!

48. SSR Type C Wheels
Installed some new light weight rollers for summer. I'm still on the stock Yokohama Geolanders that originally came with the car. There is a mild stretch but I plan to go wider once these wear out. So far no issues with this setup. Also grabbed some new TPMS sensors and Muteki SR48 lug nuts.
The plan is to refinish the wheels and pick up better sized tires once the Yokohama's are chewed up. I have the replacement stickers ready but I think that won't happen for another 1-2 years.
16x7 +30 front
16x8 +35 rear
