Do the tailights from an 02/03 fit on to a 2004 RS? I assume they do since the trunk is the same but I want to confirm.

the shape of the 02/03 lights are different than the shape of the 04's, you got it right that it has to do w/ the half circle that extends down. I'm sure they would fit well with some custom body work but are not a direct swap.

and i have to ask, what is wrong with the regular 02/03 tails?

yeah, you would have to modify your body work a lil bit to get them to fit. i like how they are a lil clearer than the 02/03 lights, but the shape of the 02/03 are a little better.

just so you know ryan, it's definitely not a direct fit. i've already done the 2004 tail lights on my 2003 wrx. my friend at the body shop had to order me an 04 bumper and brackets and they had to do some mediocre body work. not minor stuff.

04s are better looking IMO...just the tail lights...the rest of the body SUCKS!
