    Wow..Great Job! Did you use the glossifier to ENCAPSULATE! lol I wouldn't tint the winker but I have been thinking about tinting the Hockey Stick so I could have it on at night.

    Hey. I didn't really like how the plasti dip turned out. The edges weren't perfect. I ripped it all off and I'm going with the matte black vinyl wrap approach. Gonna tint the turn signal and the hockey stick :)

    This would probably be easier to power the DRL harness than the method I suggested.

    U can use something like this:

    sorry bud...everything is taped up pretty good, but I made the picture above to help you out...it's pretty straight forward. Let me know if you need any help with a wire or two.

    thanks, !!!

    i'm encapsulating the LEDS right now as we speak, been raining for weeks and today the sun is finally out

    on my 5th layer of glossifier right now

    soo the black and red wire from the DRL's, the red connects to the purple from the module, and the black connects to the black wire of the module ? or to the ground screw ?

    thanks !!!

    I thought the Prius uses low profile mini ATM fuses, the ones shown are mini ATM fuses.

    Also...make sure wherever you squeeze in the module (I went on the left side of the fusebox) that is completely upright or water could pool in where the wires exit and damage the unit.

    Yes or if u don't want to run the grounds all the way to the black wire off the module, u can find any metal area near the bumper to serve as the ground
