In Europe, those bumper reflectors are rear fog lights. That's why they're hollow like that. North America doesn't require vehicles to have rear fog lights. They should in my opinion.

Nice fun little rainy day project. It’s on my list now. Thanks.

Love it

I like the way your finished product looked, Very Nice!

Hopefully picking my 2021 crosstrek up today! Been binge watching diy mods for the pass month, probably by far my favorite so far!

Great vid! I dig how descriptive you are in these videos Stu, this is definitely next on my list after I finish my roof rack upgrade 🤙

Awesome. Just bought a 2022 Crosstrek. Hopefully it's all the same. Thanks for the video. Edit: I finally got around do doing this and it works great. Its no longer a $45 project though.its about $60-65 or $165 if you dont own a Dremel. Thank you very much for this video. It would have taken me a lot longer if i had to figure out the wiring myself.

Love this

Dude thanks for the heads up that they do in fact have a place for a socket on the back of them. Awesome detail on everything as well. Much appreciated.

I finally got around to doing this today. Looks great. Just wished I would have done it BEFORE I mounted my hitch haha. Thanks for the very helpful tutorial!

So awesome! Thank you for taking the time to post this!

The black/white 2-tone is sick man

Just bought a crosstrek and I m going to add those lights ,,,very cool thanks

Just finished this up myself today, worked great! On the passenger side, there is a rubber plug that faces outwards toward the bumper (horizontally). Perfect for routing wires through. You can see it at 22:28 in the middle left of the screen (just to to the left of the blue wire stripper handle). Easy to get to from underneath too. I couldn't use the holes in the video with my curt hitch installed.

Awesome clean job,thanks

Thanks, Stu! Appreciate your knowledge

Just completed this project! Once again, thanks for posting! Looks so cool on my new 2021 Crosstrek Sport! Don't know why they didn't include lights down there to begin with! The housing even had the light socket and tabs outlined!

Nice job!

Awesome. I think I know what my next project is.

I think other country requirements (EU/Germany) would be for the red fog lights to be located in this location. It is also quiet possible that the wiring for those lights are already on the loom and hidden within the rear of the vehicle. It is cheaper to make one wiring harness for the vehicle than have eight different looms to meet eight different country requirements.

Great video, thanks!

Got the parts and will be putting it together soon, thanks!

Thumbs up from me. I will do this project.

yes.

What roof rack you got on there? Thanks for the video!

What the difference in a 3157 socket to an 1157?

Appreciate your work, just not something I'll do on mine.

what tires and wheels are you running?

Did you use stranded 14 gauge wire?

Where did u get the window reflectors

Great video. I'm deaf though and I feel like I missed something about the harness? When you spliced it all together, it looks like you have two trailer harnesses? (Two green wires). I'm still a little confused on that part. The black wires, I get. Just the extra colored wires threw me off. Think you could clarify on that please?

Great video on the installation. I have a couple of questions. Did you use the RED version of the LED bulbs, I think they would work the best as all their light output would pass the red lens filter. Do you think adding some aluminum reflective tape on the inside of the housing would help light the upper part of the lens?

Excellent mod and video. Don’t know if anyone asked already, if it’s not to much trouble can you please post links of all required parts? Thanks

Could you please write down what tires and rims you got there? Lookin awesome

How do you get the Subaru badges

Can I do that with my 2019 crosstrek I just buy it January 2022 is base model and I would like to put fog lights, can I do that? Your car looks nice with the lights on. Thank you

Hey my man, did you have a flicker problem with the reflector/lights? Dude from advanced told me i need resistors

What kind of tow hook you have in the crosstrek

Using the LEDs, did you get hyperflash issues? I ordered resistors in case but am hoping to not have to use them

How can we do it without adding the harness for the trailer thnx

I just got a 2021 outback and didn't get badges?

Are the stock taillights LED?

Can you do this on a 2017 crosstrek?

Seems like it would be so much work just to change the bulb...reminds me of !y Honda. I had remove the batter every time I needed to change the bulb...

Hello, where can I get that tow hook?

my 2013 is outa luck?
