i am really thinkin about picking up a set of used JDM STI lights for my 04 wrx,
For those of you who have or have knowledge of an install such as this, what kind of problems would i run into, if any on an install.
I have seen a Pnp unit at ChaioFangimports.com would this work.
Also i realize that the JDM are RHD so it would not be aimed totally correct.

Please any informatuion would help me make a BIG purchase.
thanks in advance

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the USDM STi have HIDs also? Why not go with them, since they should be a bolt in? No aiming issues also.

because i can pick up a set of used JDM for alot cheaper AND they come clear so i dont have to bust them open to get out those nasty reflectors

you need a harness to connect the lights and a leveling switch (you control the height of the beam pattern). its really easy to adjust the beam pattern on the 04's theres a gear type mechanism that you can use with a flat head to adjust the beam.

now if i adjust with the beam pattern with the flat head method is their a need for the leveling switch??

ive decided to keep the stocker and get a JDM bumper w/fogs...it just seems like too much getting a harness and correct the beam pattern..ugh
thanks for the replies though
