The dealership wanted to charge me $512 to install it. I said heck no.
That's crazy lol
Dude same an even where I got it from southbayautoworkz they said 400 I said he’ll no I’ll figure this out myself 😂 thanks for this video man
@562SELA Crazy huh? Everything going up. I will do the same.
Ended up going straight to battery since rgb one had ability to control off an on from phone, so glad I got this it looks beautiful
I think I’m going to have to end up doing this LED emblem, gloss black grille, and the sequential turn signals all in one go🤣 got my diffuser on last week
Nice video man. New to your channel and so far it’s great. I just bought a 2020 Q50 exactly one week ago and so far I like it. Thinking of doing some things with it but I don’t want to void my warranty. lol this mod looks intriguing. I’m also probably going to put a rear spoiler on it too as you recommended in one of your other videos. Thanks for the info appreciate your perspective and experience.
Thank you for yet another excellent install video. I installed my LED emblem today & your video made it a breeze.
Now the ride is totally G-d out! 😂
Wow that’s beautiful
Thanks!
@4:43 I said “ That’s what’s she said “ same time you said it 😂😂😂😂
😂
I would love one but wouldn't work well with my badgeless grill lol
Haha nope sure wouldn’t
Where'd you get the badgeless grill?
@@LordCK_DC I have a 2017 Altima
@@2FittedBW oh ok I've been looking for the badgeless grill for the q50
Ended up connecting it to the back of one of the fog lights, looks 🔥
Is this what u have to do for 2019?
@@kielanvega4077 Does it turn off when you turn your high beams on? because i know when the high beams turn on the fog lights turn off.
Thanks for the app it really works😊😊
Pretty neat mod!
Unfortunately I have icc/ tech package.. I need to find a tutorial on how to modify!!
Man it came out clean!!!!!
Thanks!
@@SpeedCultureStudios will work on 2016 model?
@@user-mc2kk8yf5z yes
So i’ve had the app/emblem for awhile now. Was working fine the other night. But now there’s no lights that turn on. My connection to the battery is fine. The app even still finds the emblem. Just no lights come on. I’m not asking for help, just if the same thing is happening to anyone else? I’m on ios 15.4
I have not heard this issue. Try uninstalling the app and reinstalling.
@@SpeedCultureStudios Yeah I did. Its just a shitty app. I have retrofitted headlights so i’ll just get my guy to wire the emblem into the control box that works with the headlights so they all do the same thing. At least then, I can junk this piece of crap app.
I bumped into the same problem 🥲
@@luisjuarez9125 thanks, now I know to be cautious
So if I use the red clip thing, all i have to do is put the red wire in and clamp down the middle part
And it will slice into it?
That is what they aren’t meant to do, but they don’t always work perfectly
Thanks bro.
what size eyelet connector do i need? i installed it without that and it’s not working so i’m thinking if i use that it’ll help ground better
I don’t recall the size but it doesn’t have to be large
Would you be able to link the ground washer connector thing & the red power source thing 😅 not sure what to look up to buy them
Just go grab some at autozone or oreillys .
Will these work on a hybrid ?
Don’t see why not
Man! We tried doing this and behind the left wheel well, there's there washer fluid reservoir blocking the front sequentials on the bumper. And the right side... There's a buncha computer/electronic stuff blocking us from getting access to the right sequential bumper lights. 2018 RedSport. So I'm assuming it's all the sonar tech? Not sure what it is. Wired up the emblem differently due to that but we are thinking we may have to remove the bumper itself to get access to the bumper sequential lights smh!
Removing it completely definitely makes it easier
Need one for my q50!
do infinitis come with always on module or you have to purchase that separately ?
They have to be purchased separately. I have a video of the install with links
You know..on your last vid I saw that RED logo on the front and thought to myself "what the hell is that" Makes sense now. I was confused at first.
Lol yeah bad to film both at the same time!
Great vid man ! By any chance do you know if your emblem has a solid white because when I click white on the app it turns yellow
It should but haven’t tried it honestly.
Had the same problem while tapping into the pink wire due to it being such a small wire on factory plug I switch to the bigger red wire above the yellow and emblem is much brighter and white is actually white.
I got mine a few weeks ago. It’s sooo nice!
From where was it dis specific one.??
Hope dis guy sees dis
From the video? Jaliscos_carbonfiber on insta. I got mine from @Jr_lights on insta. But they both work together a lot
I bought a car and it has this same emblem! How do I sync the app to the light?? Thxx
It should do it automatically
Only had mine for a few months and for some reason got logged out , now I can’t change my colors or anything , I tried to sync it back up but says no device found anyone know what to do ?
Uninstall the app and reinstall
Great show as usual, where can i buy brand new Akebono calipers ?
Z1 motorsports
HELP - after having it for almost 9 months now mine isint getting off by app + even when the car is off any idea what could be the issue??
Uninstall app and reinstall. Might have to do it several times
Yo speed I don’t understand the wiring it’s different on 2019 I guess do u know what to do?
Still just have to locate the headlight wire
@@SpeedCultureStudios my mechanic installed it and can’t figure out where the wires go what can u tell me to tell him?
Anything helps thanks!!
@@kielanvega4077 I don’t know what the headlight wires look like on a 2019 but if he’s a real mechanic he’ll see the headlight wires and can test them with a test light. It’s very simple. Just needs a power source and a ground. If he can’t figure it out, find a different mechanic!
I just installed mine and the app opens for a few seconds and then crashes every time I try to choose a color or mode. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, forgetting it on bluetooth. reseting everything and nothing works. any advice?
That’s really all you can do. Keep trying it
So what do you do with the red cable( power) if your only doing the led emblem ?
What do you mean only doing the emblem? You just need to tap the headlight wire or fog light wire-whichever you want just keep in mind it will be on only when that specific light is on also
And the headlight one is the pink one?
I think it’s red
Will this work with my front camera?
If it’s connected to your headlights, does that mean you can only have it on when your headlights are on? or can you turn the emblem on wheel the headlights are off ?
If it’s connected to your headlights it only gets power when your headlights get power.
Hey speed. Thanks for all the videos. I have 2015 premium. I did all wiring same as yours to the always on module. My issue is when I switch headlights on the emblem comes on but then after a bit turns off. I flip headlight switch off and on and it comes on but goes off after a bit. Any ideas? I have went over and even re wired it to make sure and same.
What? Does Jaliscos carbonfiber make one with the camera in it as well? Not going to toss my front camera out just for a lighted emblem....hehehe
I don’t think he has the newer ones yet.
Hey speed so just to be clear your red wire (power) goes to you always on head light wire?
I don’t recall wire colors at this point but whatever I showed in the video is how it worked. I used a test light to find the wire with the constant power.
Yeah... my BT is not working with the app I cant change anything kinda annoying....
Uninstall and reinstall until it works. The app is kinda junk actually
@@SpeedCultureStudios Yeah I uninstalled it 4 times and no luck but thanks
@@richnb damn
Does it have a start up sequence ?
No - not this generation anyway.
Yo brother. Did your logo fit in snug? Mine didn’t. Had to use 3M tape to secure. I have a 2023 Q50. Is this supposed to happen? Idk if I ordered the wrong piece
Fits tight. Shouldn’t be loose
Just installed, however app isn’t letting my connect via Bluetooth. Are you having thr same issue?
It happens. Need to uninstall and reinstall. It’s been really buggy lately though!
Where website do you go to to buy the color changing Emblem
Check out @jr_lights on IG
Is this the only place that sells those and what year is car in the video. At this time they are out of stock.
This is a 2015. Other places sell these, but this is the only one I trust!
Is there a way I can splice the red wire from the top without going to the fender ?
Is there any way you can have it linked with the DRL? So it’s always on during the day and also at night when the headlights are on
Yes. You can tap any power source you want really. You can’t really see it during the day so I have mine come in with headlights
@@SpeedCultureStudios and do you know what color wire I will need to tap for the DRL?
@@SpeedCultureStudios Did you get a headlight warning on your dash after you did this?
@@Daniel-yf1li no did not
Where did u get this need one for my q60 coupe
Mentioned it several times in the vid and in the description
Did you ever give away that old emblem
Yes
The Jalisco one I got uses magic lantern app. Is that what you are using as well?
No. That was not an app available at the time of this video
@@SpeedCultureStudios thanks can’t wait to try
What app did you end up using ? My box says the app he used but I can’t connect maybe it’s the new app you got
On the factory harness for the headlight, you said it the light pink OR light grey wire for power. Which one is it? I need the exact wire i need to tap into because idk if i want to do the always on module. Thanks for everything J!
It’m pretty sure it was light pink. I said light pink or grey because I wasn’t sure what the color actually was but I believe it’s pink.
Can this emblem be used on 2009 g37 coupe
No they are different size, but I belive Jaliscos offers G emblems now
Hey I can’t figure out the app, I try connecting through Bluetooth but it keeps telling me there are no devices 🤷🏽♂️
Uninstall the app then reinstall it
@@SpeedCultureStudios i did that and the same thing continues to happen
@@lucaizaguirre5742 you ever get it fixed i installed mine and am having the same issue
Where do I buy one at?
Does it ever turn solid white ?
I’ve never tried
Need this for my 2016 q50 where can I find this
In the description
I lost my box what app do you control the color with ?
What cable should I cut or color for power?
AWESOME!!
I purchased the ring terminal 16-14 but the bolt doesn’t fit through the hole and I noticed that Is the same size you bought how did you do it?
Is it the correct ring? I believe it’s 1/4”. The 16-14 is the gauge of wire not the size of the ring.
Thanks for the fast reply ! Yes you were right the ones I had gotten were just a bit too small just came to autuzone and picked the 1/4 up and they fit perfectly! Thanks a lot
One more questions the factory pink wire is a lot thinner than the always on module wire does the wire splicer need to be a specific size ?
@@ericestrada6449 you just have to make sure it makes a good connection with the harness wire.
How do I get the emblem is there a website And would it fit my QX70
I mentioned it in the video and in the description. Check out jaliscos_carbonfiber on IG. He has a website as well. I’m not sure what he has available for the QX though
Can u drop the link for it
There was no link. Reach out to @jr_lights on Instagram
I’m confused, so what wire color is the always on lights? Please help hoping to do this soon and I want to piggy back off the always on lights!
I showed it in the video. Pink wire
How is the emblem holding up? I still haven't gotten one yet.
Holding up well. Still looks new. The app is annoying sometimes, but I don't change colors often so it's not a big deal.
@@SpeedCultureStudios Does it drain your battery at all?
@@RR-nl2ep it’s only on when the headlights are on so there is no reason it would drain the battery
@@SpeedCultureStudios Alright, cool👍
@@SpeedCultureStudios the app will not let me reconnect to the emblem.. any suggestions?
What app do you have to uninstall for the rgb emblem?
I showed it in the video. LED Lamp
What colour wire do u tap for the emblem to always be on?
I’d just tap the headlight wire. You can’t see it during the day anyway
@@SpeedCultureStudios but what colour should I tap?
Hey How's it going speed! I have a question, clearly we can see a power button on the top right of LED Lamp App when you open it but does it actually enable you to power on and off the RGB LED Emblem via the App? I would like to know this because I'm debating weather to tap into the headlight wire or drl wire to power Emblem. It would be very appreciated if you could help me out😁
I will have to check that.
I plugged the ground into one of the bolts and the power into one of the resistor boxes. And I'm able to turn it on and off via the LED LAMP app
@@dilendrawanigasekara2189 do a video of it 😬
Can you connect it to the battery for power?
I'm sure you could, but I wouldn't
@@SpeedCultureStudios so where did you connect to? The fog light or the signal lights
@@SpeedCultureStudios also I want it to stay on at all time no matter what setting I put my lights on
@@bkholla4127 then tap the drl wire and it’ll be in all the time
@@bkholla4127 well you don’t want to connect to the signal lights because then it would flash with your blinkers
Where did you get your LED emblem from? Some people got sent the wrong one or a lemon.
Jaliscos carbonfiber
@@SpeedCultureStudios Ok, thanks👌👍
@@SpeedCultureStudiosDarn, SOLD OUT!
I have a set of Swift Sport Springs for an 08-15 g37 coupe. I just got coilovers and now don’t need them. Used only about 100 miles. Any chance anyone here wants them?
I want them
@@wilfredocastro.1027 jdstarek@gmail.com. They are brand new, just wanted to upgrade to coilovers.
Great video and I have a similar product. The app it runs on has given me nothing but trouble. I have a newer Galaxy. Reading app reviews more than half the ratings are 1 star for the same issues. Connectivity, deleting prior available devices for connection, ect... Are you personally having any issues or know of a better app to operate the device?
I have the black on black one from JD_Lights, pretty sure their source for these is the same vendor. I use the "LED Lamp" app that he's using in the video and it's been fine so far. BTW, I have a Galaxy S20+ Ultra so I can say pretty certainty that it's available and working for your phone, unless you have an ancient galaxy model, in which case your connectivity issues are probably due to an antiquated bluetoooth protocol conflicting with the emblem.
Turn on ur location and then connect to it
@@rin6521 how did you pair the app to the light? Is there a button on the light itself that you need to press to pair or anything?
@@mrpacs1001 I’m having that issue as well.. it will connect to my Bluetooth on the phone but it won’t connect to the app .. does anyone know how connnect it to the app
@@Dantheman4k also having this problem, anyone find out a fix?
I did this and now my new battery keeps dying
You have a draw from somewhere. Check all wires and connections.
Can you explain how to pair the light to the app?
It basically does it on its own. When you open the app, it searches for the emblem. That’s it
@@SpeedCultureStudios my emblem doesn’t connect to the app, what should i do?
@@lucaizaguirre5742 uninstall the app and try again
Great Video! What is the size of the Ground Wire Connector?
1/4” 16-14 gauge
@@SpeedCultureStudios where can I get color changing emblem
@@carbonebonnie1276 it’s in the video and the description
What’s that’s red connector?
Will it fit on a g37?
No--not this specific one.
how do you pair the light to the app?
Just have to open it
@@SpeedCultureStudios thanks so much!

For the led emblem, did you just connect them on your fog lights ?
You can, yes. Mine is connected to my always in module

@@mb21599 He has a website, but I don't know that it is updated. You can find him on facebook too. Jaliscos Q50 I believe
Hey man I’m about to install mine any special tools needed ?
I think you pretty much saw every tool used in this video.
For the wiring harness I have a 2019 q50 does the wiring look the same ? I’m gonna try again today I couldn’t get it to work on me an the place still wants 400 to install for me 😢I’m hoping I can get it in today
Colors might be different. Just get a cheap test light from oreillys
One more question where do I tap in for easier install?
Can't really get much easier, but you can check out my first emblem install video.
@@SpeedCultureStudiosdoes the first video work for the rgb one too?
@@562sela9 Yeah it's the same wiring.
