Does anyone know where I can purchase a set of such lovelies for my Impreza??
...I've seen Lexus style clears and Twin tailight kits available for other motors, and I think they would look the dogs baws on a scooby.

Having just fitted Clear front & side indicators (which look top notch)in addition to twin headlights, I feel now that I really need to do something about those boring standard jobs at the back.

If anyone knows whether such objects of desire are actually available for the impreza I'd much appreciate it if they let me know.

Cheers !

You can get them from ScoobyMania -

Ive seen the sti rear lights Andy (quite smart), but I don't think they make a great difference .I was really looking for fully clear lenses or similar which would make bigger impact. I've been phoning round everywhere but haven't seen any and so was settled on the idea of just going for the sti's.

As luck would have it though, I contacted a place this morning and the guy that owns it told me he had been trying to push one of these companies which manufacture the clear lights to start producing them for scoobies. Interestingly enough he received a phonecall the other day to inform him that due to the demand, they were in the process of producing them and an exclusive launch may happen in the next couple of weeks with a probable cost in region of £200 odd.

If this guy is being straight-up about it then I reckon it would be worth holding out for these ones. I'll let u know how it goes anyway.

wacko

I have the STI's and if you have the full clear treatment then they look real nice. But depends on your preference for full clears or partial.....

I think these new ones I was on about may be slightly different, was told they are supposed to appear to have a clear glass effect which you can see right into as opposed to a diffusing lense...does this make sense ? (Then again I haven't actually seen them so they may be same as pic.)

Anyway, these ones look the business. where can you get them and how much? I've never seen them on a scooby before. They aren't the sti ones you were talking about before was it ? I checked the website and thought it was just half red/clear lights they offered.

It might be worth holding out a couple of weeks to see what happens about the other ones though if they are any different. What do you think?

By fully clear lenses, do you mean the jewel type with no diffusing lenses? Or a lens with both indicators and brakes clear like this:

The picture above looks like a black and white photo of rear lenses
grafted onto a colour picture of the rest of the car.....

I'd like some "Lexus" type rears (I currently have the STi ones) - why does no-one make them ?

Thanks

Andy, where did you get those clusters?

Gavin: you've got the right idea. Unfortunately the lights came from the same place as the wheels - Photoshop

My car actually still has the original coloured rear lights (and wheels ), although I've got a picture on my desk showing the clear STI type which I think work really well.

BEL: I know what you mean about the clear lenses now; sadly I don't think my artistic skills are up to drawing them to see whether they might work. Please do post a pic if you manage to find some, though - I'd like to try them on my car!

Cheers

Andy.

Any more news about these? Who's the manufacturer?

I phoned the place at the weekend but no joy. He says there's some delay but no idea why or when due now.

(It's an absolute bummer cos I can't wait to replace these standard taillights)

I'll let you know anyway if anything happens in the near future.

....Meanwhile, does anyone know of anywhere else you can buy a set of these?

Lexus style rears would look the business
I thought of this when I saw an Integra type R with some, so I got surfing but theres nothing like it for the scoob other than STi rears.

Keep us posted on whats happening
