I am aware that other threads have covered how to convert AUDM garnish to LOOK like JDM ones, however I have just purchased a jdm boot with the legacy branded garnish and discovered that the garnish bulbs do not light up when head lights are on. (reverse works perfectly) I was wondering if anyone has put one in before, and if its just a matter of transferring the boot harness over as well as the garnish to my audm car? I have still kept the jdm boot harness, but yet to install it as I thought the AUDM one should do it.
Thanks in advance!
The AUDM ones do not have boot parkers, just one rear fog light. It would be advisable to transfer the harness too to make things easier. THe harness can connect directly into the AUDM feed connector.
But one thing to keep in mind, I used the JDM harness which came with my garnish and all lights worked perfectly EXCEPT the licence plate lights. The harness connects directly into the AUDM harness but the wiring for the licence plate lights are non existent. I linked the parkers to the licence plate lights and hey presto, all lights work now
Good luck! If you need any more assistance, I'll be happy to help.
EDIT: Also keep in mind, the JDM garnish is tinted slightly....Learned that the hard way....Need to eventually buy side lights to even the tint out. I do not believe just tinting it would give it justice.
