You just splice the new lights in with the existing ones on your current lights kit...

You get three light kits, and remove the headlights from the 2 extras, and one of the tail light sets. Next you just splice the wires for 3 headlights together. Be sure to splice the wires with the white line to each other, and the ones without it to each other. Do this for both sides. Next do the same with the 2 tail lights on each side.

You should end up with a mess like this...

Right now, I just have them taped in, because I have to pull them out to paint the body, but I will hot glue them in once I'm done.

No not really, it's just a matter of splicing the same wires together from 2 or 3 light kits. The next time I do one, I will put together a tutorial with pics (if someone else doesn't first....hint..hint).

you'll probably need to drill the holes yourself. for the clear plastic pieces, take a hobby knife and take out the excess plastic. i believe the factory partially melts the plastic to hold it in.

i too did this mod to my red supra, but not 6 headlights, i have only 4 headlights, shoved the 2nd set of lights into the space where the clear plastic piece in the stock bumper is. i'm thinking of splicing in yellow lights so i get two white headlights up top and yellow foglights below.

for soem screwy reason, my taillights stopped working. not sure if it's the light kit's wiring or the wiring in my car

*edit*
btw, anyone else's lights kinda flicker when idling?

Some of mine flicker too. For the extra holes, I used a hand drill (like an x-acto blade, but with changeable bits) to drill out the holes the same diameter as the LED's. Like TypeZer0 said, I used a Dremel to remove the excess plastic (or glue) on the inside, and used a screwdriver tip to push the lenses out from the inside.

Is there any space to but some leds like underneath your car but above the skid Plate?

And when your put the extra lights on do u have to soder the wires to the mother that the command logic lights came with.

Howmuch do extra leds cost

No soldering. You just cut the wires going out to the LED's in half, and splice them with the new LED's. Just twist them together and wrap with electrical tape. You could shrink wrap them if you want to get fancy. The Light Kits are $5.99.
