Default Bugeye Rear Lights!! Opinions Please!!

Hi Guys. Can I have some opinions on these lights please. Ive got an 02 WRX and these are the nearest I can find to looking like the Blobeye lights. Thanks.

They are different mate, never seen lights like that before, however IMHO i really like the lights on the back of my 02 wrx, and rather than try to make your bug eye look like a blob eye it might be better in the long run to trade it in!!!!

Yes the original ones do look good but I was thinking of a cheap alternative rather than getting myself into debt buying the blobeye. I've only had mine 6 months.

look quite good, the only thing that might put me off is the chrome/Silver trim around the edge.

Those lights are quite unique, as i said.
I've only ever realy seen the lexus light pacck, but everyone seem to have it, and the other light pack from Subaru looks pants!!!

If you really want to change the back of your car this might be good, as there are few of these around and at least you're not turning it into a clone Scooby!
If you decide to go for it post some pics up so we can see how it looks...

Totally agree about the chrome but I've already thought about that. I'll be getting the masking tape out and blowing them over with some matt black spray

Yeah will do. I'm just waiting on some shipping costs from the US but as soon as they are fitted I will pose some pics

I really like them,

the chrome bit might be covered once fitted.

Compared to the rear lights you can buy for the 'classic' the selection for the bugeyes are pants . I really like the LED afterburner style lights but I've not seen any for the bugeye. The Morette rear light conversions are very nice IMHO but there £325!!! Enjoy which ever ones you choose though and post pics if possible.

Cheers Wolfie.
