For all you folks that were just wanting this swap - too late

Markie's black wrx looks really good
My cgm sti is now ricey by Markie and matches my wife's new Fxtr

Thus everyone is happy

 

Ive got an 05 STi, im lookin to swap tailights with an 06
let me know

 

Dude we met and did our swap in a parking lot back on Nov 2d (old thread)

It takes no time but I would not want to wait for the mail. Check your local area.

What color is your car? Markie's is black and it looked great with the 05 lights. Mine is cgm and it too looks better but with the 06 lights - Win Win

 

i got 05's too looking to trade someone 06's local would be best.

Did this. Some quick facts. The swap is NOT plug and play. The '05 you will have to cut off each socket (leave enough wire to splice for the next guy) and ship with the bulbs. The '06 you can just unplug the harness and ship all as a complete lamp. BOTH parties will have to cut wires and 'hard wire' together. They do NOT share the same harness.

Also, after packing, bubbles and p-nuts then shipping, $107 next AM or $67 next afternoon (remember you both will not have tails during the swap) it is by no means free. Also, the mounting of the '05 lights to the '06 is rock solid. The '06 to the '05 will take some clear silicon to set the leading edge (that's the edge with the snap in mount) or they will rattle!

I have photos posted in the "wanted-o6 trunk badge" thread of my car after the conversion!

 

Worked for me - ok, I have not stood behind my car, but, I have checked it from within my garage
