Great job explaining the whole process in detail. Editing and camera work is top notch bro!
Likewise brother, you know what’s up! And thanks!
What a sweet mod! Gonna look into these for sure.
Thanks for the step by step video. Gonna start on that tomorrow morning. I got the same suspension setup on my 2022 Y. 👊
"It's very safe because.... it's called the safe jack." 🤣 Nice one haha! Really cool video again, very helpful to those who want to install these lights. Always enjoy watching these install videos, even though I might not even get these. 😋 It's at least good to know the bumper doesn't have to come off to get to the fog lights.
Haha yes! Safejacks is pretty self explanatory haha and thanks as always!
@@TeslaDIY I really like using them too. Just when lifting the front only or rear only it's a bit sketchy sometimes. But it might just be the slightly uneven floor here. My jack can't really move on it so it basically pulls the car while jacking it up. Wish I had a proper floor in or nearby my garage, would make things much easier for sure.
@@Firehuntah haha I know what you mean, it get sketchy and your car dangles mid air for a bit
Great explanation you did a awesome job showing us how to wire this up. Keep up the great work love the video's!
Awww thanks man! Means a lot, I tried to cover every little step!
I am extremely impressed with these! I wasn’t too happy with the rear ones, because you had to give up the reflectors that enable your car to be seen when parked on a dark street.
Yeah, i aint' gonna lie, i like these ones much more
@@TeslaDIY Excellent, I agree with the Tesla DIY man!
nice edit bro, lightsa look good 👍🏽
Thanks for always supporting bro, even when it’s not MR2 contents 🥺
Nice work man!
Great step-by-step how to video! Now that you have had them on your vehicle for a while any insights? I just picked up a pair but I don’t think I’m going to activate the sequential signal lights as I don’t believe they are legal. As far as I know there is no vehicle that comes with sequential front indicator lights from the factory.
Great job! I just got my Standard+ and I am not sure, are there cables behind dummy fog lights?
Super sick !! No brainer Add on
Just added these, they look ok in the day, but night time performance vs the OEM fogs is weak. I'd say the OEM fogs are 5x brighter with a wider throw on the corners
Hi there. Thanks for the video. I purchased the kit, however my car doesnt have the fog lights so i need to use the harness. There are no instructions on how to install it. Do you know who can help with instructions?
Awesome, video thank you so much! Do you know if the Standard range has all the wiring reuqired to make these work?
Hello Armando, i think for standard range, there is still different trims, like if you have the SR + with the upgraded options, you get OEM fog lights, then you probably have the oem wiring harness, otherwise, you will need to use the aftermarket harness provided, to run it behind your front bumper to the fog lights and oem power source. I have not done that part before and dont know how difficult it is. You can check if you have fog lights by going to your menu, to see if there is a fog light button to turn it on and off, or just step out of your car to see if the fog lights turns on or not
If using the harness for the SR+ and pulling power from the tail lights, is it expected that the ambers will turn on every time you press the brake?
Hahah that what she said moments. Thanks for the video bro! keep it up!
Haha bit childish but hey, it was too good not to, and I do act more childish than my kids sometimes
@@TeslaDIY They are funny, keep doing them.....
Great video!
Thank you Jason!
I installed these. This video was a HUGE help. Is there an easy way to disable the OEM headlight turn signals?
Glad i was able to help! I am also interested in disabling the OEM turn signals in the headlight, but i have not looked much into it. I will make a video if/when I figured it out, or just make a quick post about it. In the meantime, you can let me know if you are able to figure it out =D
Will you detail how you remove the side repeater camera? apparently the clips are prone to breaking.
Have you figured out how to get rear fog lights? The European versions have them per EU regulations. I wish I could get it from my MY.
Any new links for t connector? Seems the link is no longer valid for Amazon. Also for the Etsy shift? I would like to support your work. Thanks!
Great instruction Perry
Thanks Tony!

I'm taking delivery of my Model 3 and like these fog lights. How are the fog lights holding up? Also, is it significantly brighter than stock? Thank you. Subscribed.
Thanks, they are still working 100%, for oem vs aftermarket LED fog lights, check out the community tab of my channel where i posted a side by side comparison with my OEM fog from my Model Y and these LED fogs on my 3
Excellent! Thank you
Chimchim! Email me, 4agemr2@gmail.com, you won the giveaway
@@TeslaDIY email sent!
Looks like those are missing the side marker reflectors. The OEM one has an integrated reflector inside the fog light.
Where did you get your roof cargo box? Thanks in advance
Hello i came across your channel recently and became a subscriber, thank you for your hard work to share the content, for this Fog light Mod is there any extra steps for wiring needed since my 2019 M3 SR plus DOES NOT have the Fog lights install and the hardware is not in the car according to Tesla , i heard that the same year earlier built M3 have a different packate that included the Foglights, and i would really like to add this upgrad kit to my M3 SR+ thank you
Thanks buddy, for SR without factory fog lights, I have no experience with it but from my understanding, you will have to use the additional harness which comes with the PimpMyEv kit, and you’ll have to tap that into your driving light or headlights, since there’s no physical “fog light” button in the menu to turn it on
@@TeslaDIY Thanks for your reply, when you have a chance can you check out the product from RPM TESLA website from USA, they seem to offer the set up for my situation.
@@Boobooli I avoid RPM Tesla for personal reason, you can search my name with RPM Tesla and you will probably find the story between me and them
Thank u
Is the sequential fog lights brighter than the stock fog lights?
Can we get an at night shot of these? Would love to see how the projection down the road compares to the stock ones.
Check my community post, I shared a comparison photo between my model Y with its oem fog and these aftermarket fogs
@@TeslaDIY can you provide a link to this post of the projection comparison?
Love the videos and process of your Tesla’s. From when I last inquired I’m still in the market for a model y, but your 3 is done very classy IMO. When I receive m6 Tesla there is no way I could lower it though because in my region the routine pot holes at times are as large as the wheels, lol.
Awww man thanks! Yeah this car has come a long way! All thanks to all the support and sponsors. Really got lucky meeting the right people and lucky to have such a supportive following on both my CZcams and ig!
Awesome work! Would you considering doing some install work for some LEDs for the rear too?
Where are you located?
@@TeslaDIY Newark, CA
@@crontab888 i have no idea where that is… just kidding lol that’s where I live too
@@TeslaDIY Even better! Let me know how to DM you. Thx
@@crontab888 peekaystudio on ig 😉
After installing these in my MYP, I lost the fog light icon. The button is still there to turn on and off and it works, but the icon is now gone. Any clue on how to get it to return?
I have no idea, I only have these on my Model 3, My Model Y still has the OEM fogs, but it works all normally on my Model 3
How does it look with fog light setting on vs. off? On my OEM lights, the DRL are off when lights are off and always on with the lights set to park/on/auto. The OEM fog lights (very outside corner) are only on when the DRL are on _and_ the front fog light setting is on. Do your lights look different when front fog light setting is on/off? I see on your Instagram there are some pictures of your care with the OEM lights that show DRL without the fogs on so you know what I mean. Does the beam pattern of your lights provide wider coverage like fog lights would or is this basically remove fog function and replace with DRL/sequential signals only? Thanks!
Hmmm I’ll take a long, also, check my CZcams community section for the night time fog lights output comparison
Take a look*
@@TeslaDIY thanks for the quick reply and pointing me to the post on the community tab, good visual on the differences of the lighting pattern. New light cutoff isn't as sharp as OEM but looks nice and bright and still has wide throw. Still curious on difference with fog light setting on and off.
Great video ! Do you know of anyone that have video instructions on how to install the harness?
Thanks Shawn, I don’t, but it does look plug and play by looking at the sockets that’s on the harness, I believe one socket goes on the control box that’s on the car. Then a ground and then simply route both wires to each side of the fogs and connect them
Very sweet what color and brand is your wrap?
Hello Shawn, thank you, it is chalk white from KPMF, if you’re bored or interested, you can watch my wrap video on my channel 🙂cost me 520$ with lots of extra material left, ordered from metrorestyling.com
Where did you get the front splitter?
Is there anyway to tap these fog lights directly into the DRLs so they are always on with the DRLs without needing to have the headlights or parking lights on in the controls setting.
unfortunately, i have no idea about that, my self along with all other folks who had installed this, is doing it this way thru the side camera turn signal power source
hey hi! i have a question if i dont have originaly the fog light do i have to make the complete harnest by my self ?
Some kits provides the hardness, however your software doesn’t have the fog light options, so I would imagine to turn on the lights as fog lights, you would have to tap it into your headlight or wherever, for turn signal it should work
Thank you for the in-depth detail and how to install this thing, the only thing I disagree with is the "safe Jack".... I would never trust my ridiculously expensive car to a jack sold by harbor freight tools....ever
Thanks! I had no idea harbor freight sells safe jacks
Great video! Do I need to get the T Type 2 Pin? Or 1pin?
Thank you my friend, 1 pin is fine as we are only joining 1 wire to the existing single wire
Are these brighter than the projector foglights? I’m looking for something that’s bright because when I tint my headlights it decreases visibility. So I’m looking to get brighter fogs
Check my channel community post, I posted side by side comparison, but the aftermarket lights do seem to spread out more which result in not as “focus” or “direct” so it does loses some brightness
So what happens if you don't use the yellow wire? Just lights up white all the time like the OEM ones?
i believe so, since the yellow is just a signal which gets trigger by the oem turn signal wire to make it blink in amber. but i could be wrong, i did not do any experiment as i only did the install the way it was intended and thats how i want it
I bought these lights, but don't think I have fog light option so I need to use the extra harness. I know you didn't need it, but I can't find wiring diagram or instruction anywhere on where/how to plug the extra harness to make the lights work. Can you or anyone else on here help? TIA......BTW.....REALLY appreciate your vids.
Thanks a lot for your support on my videos!
I have not done an install on a car without factory fog lights but I have friends on my Instagram who told me how they went about installing. This is what he said.
He did not remove wheels, nor out the car up on jack stands, he removed front bumper instead.
At first, He tried to tap power from the headlight but the fog lights stayed on even after he locked the car so that was a no go. Then he used the cable and tap plug it at the rear deck speakers...that was a PITA to work in that area.
Good luck 😅
Hi, this is amazing job. Where are you based? Do you provide installation service and what's the cost of the job? Thanks.
Thanks I’m in the Bay Area but I don’t do install for others, too much reliability and ain’t worth my time
Why is your brake polished on the inner half and dull on the outer half? My Model 3’s rotor is pretty uniform.
hmmm, i am not sure, i never paid attention, i will have to take a look next time.
@@TeslaDIY Check out the Model Y’s rotors, maybe I am just having a brain fart!
Great video, the T connector link is broken, can you update with another?
Thanks, this is what i used in this video because thats what i had at the moment, it worked well for me
amzn.to/41PYO6n
you can also use these as they are more so recommended by "experts"

Do they effect the car warranty from Tesla?
Any pics or video on how much light it produces. Is it brighter than the factory set up?
Hello Andrew, yes, check my youtube community tab, i showed comparison there
@@TeslaDIY oh ok. I was being lazy and didn't check everything. I'll check in a bit.
@@andrewsilva6713 Nah man, it was posted a while back and the youtube channel community tab is not what most people would look for unless it shows in your feed. you're good my friend!
I was told the side cameras can never be unplugged as they are a 1 time use only???
Link to the safe jack please?
Not sure about that, I’ve unplugged my camera several times in the past, wrapping car, clear bra…etc

@@TeslaDIY that what the body shop told me when they had to repair a scratched fender at least. Maybe they milking the insurance maybe? Wow, the jack is $180 each? $360 for a full set
Maybe a stupid question but where can I get these installed? A regular body shop or a mechanic? Cause I'm not trying to do this myself.
Not a stupid question, but i am not sure what kind of shops would be up for the job either, maybe better off trying a audio or alarm installation shop unless there are any "tesla" specialize in your area like @AYcustomsautomotive or if you know guys that are handy
@@TeslaDIY thanks. ok I'll ask around. If anyone in the Phoenix area that can do this let me know. 👍
Don’t think these are legal in the US. The OEM has the yellow side marker lights integrated into the fog light housing.
what kind of t splicers do you need i see 3 options on the link?
T type 1 Pin my friend, you just need to split the single wire, so the 1 pin will do
I got the same flip flops😂🔥
Bro! Are you in the Bay Area flip flip member group? Let’s meet up! 🤣
Can u show me how wire fog light harness? My Tesla 3 doesn’t come with fog light?
i didnt have to do it for my car, but i did studied the harness, i believe its pretty straight forward as far as the connection, routing maybe trick with the tight spacing however.
I have no idea how to connect the harness in my SR +, did you installed the harness?
Did you see the kit from China that replaces all four parts of the taillights? It gives more light and turn signal animations. This is not the replacement for the bottom reflectors.
I did, but i am not sure if thats too much, i like my tail lights to be simple, only wish they have amber turn signals
@@TeslaDIY Don’t the latest models have amber turn signals? I wish that they would unlock the software to give us a rear red fog light, too! Amber rear turn signals and flashers are much easier to see.
I don't understand the need to remove the side cameras and hook up a wire to them for just installation of fog led lights.
What does the side cameras have to do with fog led lights??
These aftermarket fog lights also work as sequential turn signals, so the wire to side camera is to get signal from the turn signal indicator on the side camera
How’s the brightness on the road compared to the oem fogs?
I’ll do a comparison later, check back later on my CZcams community or my IG story. I’ll post side by side with my Model Y (or with my friends model 3) and my Model 3. But looking at the new fog, they have the same size (and look the same too) LED, but 5 times as much, so my guess is either it is same or even brighter
Sounds good, thanks bro!
So you have no fog light anymore ? You turned it into left and right signal light?
They stay on when turn signals are not triggered, so they do work as driving/fog, do they help when driving in the fog? Maybe not? But I don’t drive in the fog nor do I recall the last time I did. And I don’t need fog lights to help me drive in the fog
What specs are your wheels and do you have any arms in the fronts?
These Rotiform NEK are 19x10 +18 19x11+30
OEM arms in the front, SPL Parts camber and toe arms on the rear
@@TeslaDIY crazy that you can fit a 10 up front
@@anthonychan3 My Work Meister S1R is also 10" +22
Does this void the warranty on the vehicle
If whatever went wrong on your car is directly related to your fog lights … sure
Does this void the warranty?
If you're going in for service on faulty fog lights, yes, but if you have suspension issue, they won't void your warranty for having aftermarket fog lights
Very nice FRONT Tesla Model 3 / Y LED Fog Lights / Turn Signals indeed !!
Hey friend how much you spend $$ total for the Air kit all together ??? I mean If I will do it in pro shop somewhere because too much hassle to install them.
Also How heavy whole thing / kit with tanks and 2 compressors and everything else ???
Thanks buddy, I spent around 3600 for airdemand struts/bags and airlift 3H, plus 800 for SPL parts camber and toe arms. Then maybe $200 in misc parts like fitting, mounting platform…etc
Self install saved about 1500 at least
Weight of the kit…. Maybe 10-15lbs? Not sure tbh
Will this light work on a 2021 sr+?
Hello, I can’t really speak for other models, but I have a 2018 long range with premium upgrade (mandatory upgrade from back in the days) and it works for mine. It does however comes with a wiring harness for those who don’t have factory hardness connected to their fog lights, but I checked with my friend who has a standard or standard plus, he doesn’t have the fog light button in his screen, so not sure how that would work
Thanks for the reply. i bought this and didn’t realize it doesn’t work for me. So now I have to either mess with the wires or go back to stock.
@@NewEraNErd Hello, were you able to install them? on your SR+?
@@nefilopez8761 yes the connector that it comes with didn’t work so you have splice the wires. Black to black and red to the other outer wire. I recorded some video that’ll post soon. Just finished the installation yesterday
Your car looks bad ass bro, you have IG?
Thanks Edwin, peekaystudio
Can you turn off fog light but with headlights still on?
Yeah using the on screen fog light button
@@TeslaDIY what if I don’t have fog light enabled?
@@kelvpoon then my guess is you need to hardwire the fog lights to your headlight or accent light, however you want your fog lights to come on
@@TeslaDIY :( so sad I got no fog lights

Can you run them with the headlights of?

Wrapped
@@TeslaDIYI enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing
@@cyprianskiba8768 Thanks buddy! appreciate it!
Cant get my side cameras off. Watched 3 videos and they all seem sus and sounds like people are breaking the camera holder. Sucks.
Its only held on by 3 "hooks", reach in from the back with one hand to try to pull them pass the metal cutout, and try to pull the camera downward at the same time...you can also try to carefully use a flat head, but maybe tape all round it, even tape the flat head screw driver to prevent any scratching or damage, but do it at your own risk
@@TeslaDIY lol yeah went for the flatheat, broke and popped off the camera casing lol... just ordered a new one on ebay.... glued my camera casing back on until the new one arrives, used the T splitter on the yellow wire on the first connector and it works fml... Im going to do the otherside as well without removing the camera..... fml lol
