Hi guys,
A few of the led's on my rear 3rd brake light, on my 330S have failed. Looks like a block of 4 bulbs, second from the left.
After googling, I'm having trouble finding a replacement light.
I spoke to the dealer and they said it's a full new spoiler as the light doesn't come sepeartely! Surely not?
It's a 58 plate 330S hatch. Anyone know the part number or where to source a replacement?
Thanks.

Now its been a while since I had a hatch and maybe a bit of a longshot but I recall that on my old Hawkeye the clear brake light in the standard low level WRX spoiler was the same as that in the high level STI spoiler, now you can buy a OE used WRX spoiler on ebay for about a tenner, I wonder if Subaru carried on using the same light through to the hatch?
As said longshot but maybe worth a try.

Picked this up a couple of weeks ago.
330s standard engine wise but a fair bit done externally in little bits and bobs. AP 6 pot cosworth brakes. DAMD flat bottom steering wheel daytime running lights etc etc
I started off subaru life with a 54 plate STI
Sold that for 330d BMW coupe e92 that bored the life out of me!!
So tried to satisfy my love of Subaru's by buying this RB5
but classics just aren't me!!
very happy with the hatch I should have went straight to hatch and saved some money!!
I'm on the look out for a Hayward and Scott or Cobra cat back if anyone spot one

Hi Neil,
Not sure if these are any good but worth a look. http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/pr...amp-extensions

I am after one of those DAMD steering wheels myself to be fitted with the quick rack and bushing kit. Expensive owning one of these cars, modding is so much a part of STi ownership that has to be factored into the maintenance budget
Whatever you do next do not put those stupid shoe stickers on your new car

Just picked up my Decat and going to see andy for mapping next month, do i fit the decat the day b4 and drive up at 50mph off boost in I mode, or find a local garage up there, go up early and get them to fit it? Would it be safe to drive up?

Looks good Don, I'll see if the joiner at work can knock up a couple ... I think I'll go for 4 or 5 boards each overlapping 2 feet, with 1.5 / 2 inch rise each .. long boards but low, slow rise and safe!

Here's what I was doing last night:
Removed (my car's original PPP exhaust [that I de-resonated])...
...going on (Invidia N1 Race Ti tip)...
...installed
And I couldn't be happier with it. The quality of construction and materials is great! The flanges are the cast, finned type - the Blitz NUR Spec R that I bought for the old Blobeye WRX I used to have didn't even have those - they were just cut plates! It came with removeable silencer bung that I dare say I may need on long journeys as this thing is simply nothing short of brutal!
A big thanks to Chris at tarmacsportz for importing this from Invidia for me!

No worries Paul, I tried the extensions, they were too short, hey ho! I didn't ask them how long they were!
Should have some low rising wooden ramps by tomorrow.
It was just to get some height to get under the front, how ever achieved!

Sorry Neil, did think you were looking for something to get you started on ramps. I use some bits of wood which do the same job as the ramp extenders to get me started but I don't have lower springs.
