Rear Tail light halo rings
hi all,
in need of some help, rear tail lights on my 2007 hawk sti (2005 conversion) have red halo rings instead of the standard bulbs when the lights are on. Looks great and haven't had a problem since Iv owned the car. One has finally given up and now Iv got the task of swapping them out. Only problem is I can't seem to find anywhere to source them, i have found the oracle ones for a 2005 wrx but they only specify headlights not tail lights. not sure if there is a difference in sizes etc or if id be able to use them in the rear lights. not a believer in eBay car parts but is this something I should be considering. On the back of them it's got the site www.angeleyesweb.co.uk which unFortunately no longer works. I didn't do the original instal so am flying blind here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Lighting and wiring etc not really something Iv delved into with the car so am a novice to all this side. Hope someone has a better idea than I do
thanks again

Not surprising you're having no luck.
Where are the piccies??, what diameter are they??
What type are they, smd or cold cathode (have they got a starter attached) ??
What colour light does the halo actually emit - MY05 lenses are red??
and yes ebay is the place to find them.

bit of hunting on Ebay it is then, there 90mm diameter, I didn't instal the originals so have no idea what they are or any other details and as for the way he's resealed the actual unit itself it's going to take some work to get back into them haha think it's going to be a case of just buying two new ones and replacing both tail lights.
Appreciate the reply bud 👍
