Its very easy!

It all depends on how you want it to look. On the 04-05 tail lights there are three sockets/bulbs. Some have dual filament some don't (I forgot which ones) Just move the socket and kinda stretch the wire to the other bulbs to light up.

On my WRX I think I switched one bulb on each tail lamp from the dual fill, to the single. Moved the socket/harness so the circle lights up all the time, and all the lights light up when the brake is applied

**WESTI** · 04-15-2008, 10:39 PM

oh do the wires have a hard time reaching or whats the deal with that?

JDM Rear Light Look (04+ Model) - Interior & Exterior Modification - NASIOC

Yes there is some stress on the wires. Some people have extended them, but I did not and never had a problem (when I had the car)

EDIT:

Seventy, you have a bad ass car

**Seventy STi** · 04-15-2008, 11:08 PM

It will take me 5 mins if I dont have to take out the subwoofer box. :/

All you have to do is unplug all 3 out , take out the #1 bulb and plug all back in like the picture is showing. The wire for me are really tight and just enought.

13onesti is saying to do it some what different than what I did. Mine is pretty simple. When you turn on the light on the circle will be on. When you step on the brake both of them or the side one will be on, not really sure haha.

Oh thanks gosu.

**WESTI** · 04-15-2008, 11:13 PM

why do u have to take the number 1 bulb out? can u take pics of your car when u push the brakes with the lights on?

**Seventy STi** · 04-15-2008, 11:36 PM

Haha sure.. give me a chance to whore out pictures!? I'm always down with that haha. Give me some time.

Done in total darkness. Sorry pictures kind of big lol....

This one is when the light is on or parking light is on.

This one is when you step on the brake.

So if you dont take out the middle bulb than it wront give you the effect. If you have the middle bulb than when is on parking light. Both the middle and the circle will be on. If you step on the brake all 3 lights will be on. I mean just take a picture of your 04 tails brake and no brake than you can see what is different.

Not sure if you can see this clearly but....... is cold out side lol... and i need a new camera

One more cause I like this picture. :P

Oh and the plate light is PIAA white LED 168. Any white bulbs will do really. Mine came out a little blue lol... I want it white tho..

**WESTI** · 04-16-2008, 08:06 AM

cool thanks for the pics. Did you have to cut anything to make it work?

Ballistic1350 · 04-16-2008, 09:21 AM

Nice car man, but I'm gonna agree that wingless looks kinda odd on your car. Try looking at the syms wing or something along those lines

No cutting. Just switching them. Is really easy.

I got way too much stuff going on at the rear haha. You might like it more if you see it in person hehe. Anyway not totally happy with the exterior part yet. Still got stuff coming in.

**Seventy STi** · 04-18-2008, 03:19 PM

Done with the headlight also. JDM style yo! haha...

I got the APR GT3 mirror but one side is defected so I have to return them. Didnt know APR have fittment issue on those so just so you guys know. Those mirror are for test fit again and might keep or not keep. So prepare for a slick deal on those!
