Default 2005 JDM sti Rear lights. Which is Which?

Hi All

Most JDMs utilise one of lights as a fog light., some have external Fogs and use just one for both tail and brake light.

There are 3 Red light in the bottom of the cluster.

Inside projector, middle reflector and outerside standard clear

What is the standard lens designated on a UK Car?

i assumed inside Projection FOG middle brake and outer side light.

Ive seen three cars all different.

If you look at my listing for JDM try changing your inner and outer bulbs around. You may find the outer is a 5W tail light to give you a double.

If all else fails, speak to Floz he likes mixing and matching rear lights
