Details
Interior Lighting for the Entire Vehicle
With factory interior lighting kits costing over $100, GCS brings an easy to install kit to the market that will provide light for both 1st and second rows of seats.
This kit comes with all you need to complete your installation. 4 strips of lighting include 4 runs of wire which you will connect to the controller box. This box connects to your smartphone via an Android or iOS application. You can choose preset colors, choose your own color, or let the lights dance to the beat of the music.
To make the installation even easier, an add a fuse is included so you use the 12v plug fuse inside the cabin to power the kit. In this area there are bolts which mount to the chassis that can provide a ground for the system.
Includes both cigarette lighter and hard wiring connectors (preferred method). Bluetooth connectivity prevents the control device (smartphone) from losing its Internet connection while controlling the RGB lighting system.
Installation
The included add a fuse makes installation a breeze.
- There are two types of add a fuses included. Select the appropriate one for your installation and place the included fuse in the top slot.
- Note an appropriate fuse by using the diagram we have provided. For these vehicles, the fuse box is located in the driver's side *dash area.
- Pull the fuse out from that location and install it on the bottom slot of the add a fuse.
- Insert the red wire from the RGB LED controller box power wire in the blue portion of the add a fuse and crimp the connection.
- Insert the add a fuse in the slot you removed the fuse from earlier.
- Locate a bolt which can act as a ground post. Use the for the black wire on the RGB LED controller box power wire.
- Insert this power wire in the controller box. Run the rest of the wiring to the mounting locations for the LED strips, mount them, and connect the wires to the RGB controller.
*The WRX / STI / Crosstrek / Forester have a fuse box door that faces the driver. The FR-S / BRZ / 86 have it located under the dash.
Try to avoid turning the vehicle to accessory power before starting. Restarting the RGB controller quickly can result in loss of bluetooth connectivity.

Fuse Box problem
By Tomas December 11, 2020The lights were great, installing them throughout the car was pretty much easy, but powering them through the fuse box was the problem. I followed the video thoroughly but the lights wouldn't turn on with the car. Their was one spot in the fuse box where the lights would always be on, so I knew everything else was done correctly. I didn't want the lights to be on forever so I ended up installing them in the glove compartment. Even with the trouble overall I do think it was worth the money

honestly worth it
By Jerry A. October 11, 2020I bought this after watching the youtube video and there was practically minimal effort when installing these. it was pretty simple and having the video as a guide makes it too easy. And the lights themselves look very good and I love the ease of changing them by using the app. Definitely a good purchase to upgrade the interior.

Tricky Install, Great Results
By Jimbo July 26, 2020Although the video shows it’s easy to pass the wires through the center to the passenger side, that ends up being the trickiest part! Also hooking everything up properly and knowing where to place the Bluetooth receiver was also not shown in the video. But overall once everything was installed, the all was easy to follow and the lights look great! Definitely recommend!

8.5/10 Easy install / Looks good
By Alexander April 4, 2019The installation was easy, took maybe 30-45 min to install, the fit was almost on point but the double tape or glue that comes with it sucks, I had to use better double tape the 3m was weak and fall off after 2 days but overall I'm super happy how it works and looks soo good and for the price this is something you should go for

Great product, easy but exhausting install
By David November 12, 2018I love the lights and features. Pretty simple install, I chose to hardwire it. As a bigger guy I found myself in some pretty crazy yoga poses but it ended up being worth it. Cool to the music color changing feature. Back ones are bright enough mounted on the rail, but might try the velcro solution proposed above.

10/10 would buy again
By Stuwie July 10, 2018it was very hard to install the passenger side front lights (you had to feed it through the dashboard) other than that it was fairly easy just make sure you follow the YouTube video.

Simple addition for alot of personalization
By Matt March 20, 2018Install was very easy, the youtube video definitely helped and once they were all up in running, I was definitely happy with my purchase. A few very minor things I noted: the adhesive needed a bit more pressure to really set when applying to the plastic in the front as opposed to the rear which mounted on the metal seat rails. Also, the LED strips came wrapped in a saran wrap type plastic which took some practice/figuring out to get it off without simply shredding. Still a solid choice!

Looks great
By Jim March 19, 2018Installed this as opposed to the OEM product which is only offered in red or blue. Way better price and much more versatile. Installation was straightforward. Only frustrated by poor quality zip ties which were dried out, fragile and kept breaking. Would recommend

Bright
By Mario March 3, 2018These lights can be pretty bright (they are able to be dimmed via the Happy Lighting app) and the installation wasn't too bad. Its a little bit of a pain fishing the wire through the back of the console to the passenger side. Also be prepared to get into some wierd angles when you are tucking and throwing on zip ties to get the wiring out of the way of the petals. One very important note for people like me who have never wired anything in my life. When you crimp the box wire to the Add-A-Fuse wire, make sure you first strip the Red wire about half an inch so that the wire is exposed and then carefully push it all the to the center of the blue tap. I got too excited and just crimped it without stripping..... Don't be an idiot like me.

Better than OEM
By Stephen February 7, 2018My summary is true. I had OEM foot well lighting and GCS not only has more customization its $20 cheaper. The most bang for your buck!

Great LED Lights!
By Abraham November 3, 2017These look great at night, they look good during the day but at night they're fantastic! Took me around 30-40 minutes to install but was just because I'm a big guy and it was hard trying to run the cables and zip tie the wires and stuff. Although, it wasn't all that hard to install them. The only issue I ran into was that I had a lot of slack left over but I mean that's not necessarily a bad thing, you could find ways to make use of all the slack. I would rather have more than not enough. I just had to zip tie all of it and tuck it underneath the dash with all the other cables. Overall, I'm really pleased with these lights! Took literally seconds for the app to recognize them and they have no lag when I'm going through colors. The app is really nice too, it has pre-set modes if you want them to change color by themselves and stuff.

Looks Good, just be ready for the installation.
By Chris August 3, 2017I ordered this a little while ago for my 2013 FRS, and I must say, it adds something that no other product can add. Installation was easy, but time consuming moving wires about through the small spaces of the FRS, but I am extremely pleased with the outcome, would certainly recommend.

easy install, looks awesome!
By VU May 22, 2017took me 20 minutes to install it. the subispeed video helped a lot. the bluetooth function is really cool once i found out which app to download (happy lighting in the IOS store). changing the color to whatever i want gives the car an extremely personable feel.

Worth the work
By Cade January 9, 2017I ordered these for my 2014 Forester and the end result is well worth the work. The wiring was a bit of a pain but nothing to difficult. My problem was with the adhesive on the back of the led strips, it would not stick to anything, i had to resort to my own means of attaching them, however after all that was done with, they paired to my phone just fine and work well and are very responsive. Currently my favorite mod to date!
