Will send thanks in advance. Wasn't sure if I should have sent you a PM or not.

If you want it to do multiple things you'll have to isolate the inputs using relays. And add a flasher unit for the blinking reverse light. Either that or you'll have to install a dual filament harness. Do you have experience wiring relays? I have a schematic in my album that you can use for a reference. If you need a schematic for your specific application PM me and Ill try to help.

As far as fitment the JDM lamp bolts right into place. Not sure about the Evo-r.

I know this thread is long but all the info you need is in here.

I thought I had read that if you use the LED variety, some of these features are already integrated within unit.
This has been the reasoning for me to post the original question. That being, if you use the Evo-R unit from the Z-Store, do you have to do anything differently to mount, along with using or not using the wiring kit they sell with the console switch.
No, i've not had a lot of electrical experience especially with wiring in relays and such. This is why I'm asking the questions "before" i decide to purchase.
Appreciate the comments. Probably just need to email the Z-Store with my questions..

Sorry. I didn't notice that you were specifically asking about the evo r light.
