JDM Rear Light Look (04+ Model)
�
�
So, in my quest to make my car have a more authentic JDM appearance in the rear, I decided to remodify my tail lights.
The USDM tail lights for the 04-05 models light up on outside and the center circle lights up when the brakes are depressed. On the JDM model, (I was watching an Option Video and the JDM STi & JDM Spec C both had rear lights that lit up this way) the center circle is always on and only the very outside light comes on when the brakes are depressed.

Notice how the circle is only lit when your head lights are on. That's the way it's supposed to light up; and only the outside portion will light up during braking w/ your 3rd center mounted high brake light.
Note: Tutorial coming soon as I have time.

I heard that all you have to do to make your lights like this is switch the bulbs with the wiring harnesses still attached to them. I thnk that there is enough slack in the harness to just switch them if I am not mistaken. I have to try iit soon - looks hot!

Close but not quite.
Just to make it clear, here's a brief write up of what I did:
1. Remove both rear lights
2. Unplug both harnesses
3. Swap harnesses on each side
4. Wire new grounds, there isn't enough slack to do it simply like that.
5. Cut portions of the bulb cup to make them fit correctly and so you can take them back out when you need to replace a bulb.
6. Test one side, if it works, move on to next one and use same procedure.
7. Put it all back together, stand back with the parking lights on, and admire your work.
8. Bonus: if you got someone around, ask them to press your brake pedal. It's a nice change :)

i'm sorry, i can't quite tell from the pic. do the cricles get brighter with the brakes depressed???
| SupraToWRX | 09-08-2005 12:47 PM |
I did this to my wrx about a year ago. I didn't swap harnesses or anything, just cut and rewired the outside light to the circle part and the circle part to the outside light. And I think you have to take out the middle light, too.
| outferno | 09-08-2005 01:15 PM |
Ghost Rider: Absolutely. The mod changes the most outside bulb (dual filament) to the inside circle, so when the lights are on, it's already on the first filament, when the brakes are depressed, the second filament makes it brighter. The original single filament in the circle will now be on the most outside lights of the brakes, making the original dual filament a single filament bulb.

it's cool I suppose...
I'd make sure you still pass inspection though. They can be strict at times, I failed when i did a similar thing to my hondas tail lights.

question for outferno:
when i moved the carpet away to check out the tails in my 04 STi,
i saw a number of 'wire taps' (plastic splices).
i suspect this must be the handiwork of the prior owner.
my lights operate in the USDM fashion.
can you tell me if the normal Subaru wiring is just 'straight' wire w/ no taps, etc?
thanks.

| franke3c | 09-18-2005 01:30 AM |
I just did this today,
A bit differently though, I extended the harness for each side so that it can reach opposing side, cut the bulb cups a bit.
Although I realized that the middle lights are dual filaments, but the second filament doesnt light up with the brakes depressed. Is this normal?

I'm not quite sure what you mean by taps. My stock harness was put together with electrical tape and a few crimped copper pieces from the factory *shrugs* I figure it was just easier for them to get it all to fit in that way. Perhaps a picture would help?

The way it looks is: the outside bulbs will become a single filament, only comes on when brakes are depressed. The middle bulb will be removed, and the circular portion should only come on when the lights or parking lights are on.

1.5 hours sounds about right to take out the assemblies on both sides, to rewire/put back together.

check out this [URL=http://www.i-club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=112557]thread[/URL] also - a little easier than totally rewiring the whole thing.
For the JDM look, you can do the WRXBABY switch.
If you still want the round lights to light up with the brake while maintaining somewhat of a "hybrid" USDM-JDM look, then you can do the blinker light extension posted at the end of the thread.

Honestly on the best motoring video's I think they used the lower filament (not the bright one like the first post) if you look closely at the video they aren't brighter or as bright as the outside lights.. I did the mod from i-club and it worked well, might just cut the wire that makes it light the auxilary, and bam JDM tails.

Yo charlie! I met you at that one meet near the automall. Those taillights are quite awesome in person. Very unique. It gives the rear end a better and more aggressive look IMO. Much, much better than usdm lighting style. Sweetness.
| scoobdude | 09-25-2005 05:48 PM |
quick question. isn't the outside light supposed to light up with the parking lights as a side marker? i believe the 04s may have a seperate bulb, but not sure on this.

I just did the mod this morning! Thanks for the idea.
I just exchanged the two outside bulbs. I had to cut out the black ground wires and add extensions. I removed the center bulb. I still wanted a set of brake lights on each side in case I lose one.
For reference, the two harnesses are exactly the same, just flipped over.

Hi Joe,
I believe you are right. The stock USDM outside bulb (which is now located in the round taillight) will light up with the parking lights. I will have to check to see if the round taillight will be visible from the side. Good point.

outferno,
i mean taps like a plastic crimp connector that 'splices' in a new wire.
it almost looks like someone (previous owner) was pulling a U-Haul and needed to tap into the rear lights & brakes.
looks like there are 2 variations going on this now?
i will have to look into the parking light potion, tho i never drive w/ just my parking lights. headlights or nothing for me.

Thanks runwrxrun, as for a write up, Cannibal did a pretty good write up on how to do the mod. Though it's not truly the JDM look, it's very close. That's the way I had it before, but for my own personal liking, I chose to make it look exactly like the JDM ones.
Joe: to answer your question, when the auxillary/parking lights are on for the USDM model, both the center light and the outside light are on. The circular light on the USDM model only lights up when brakes are engaged. The outside lights will also become brighter on the USDM model when the brakes are engaged (dual filament).

Charlie

okay, so here's what i want to know-
is JDM for 2002-2003 any different? i seem to remember that only the inside lights light up during braking... does anyone have some option/best motoring videos they can look at to find out?
i did this-
switch the outside light with the middle light on each side... this way the running lights are the same, but when you press the brakes it looks like this-
[img]http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/9692/tailmod8xv.jpg[/img]
so does anyone know how JDM 02 lights work?
in bestmotoring Factory Fighters the STI v-limited (04) has brake lights that are only the outside position, not the middle or circle.
running lights(headlights on) are the same, here's proof- [url]http://www.performancecardvds.com/products/bmi/vol5/photos/019.jpg[/url]

Well, I finally got around to modding my tail lights last Friday night.
I took a slightly different approach then what i have seen so far.
Swapped the outside bulbs & sockets like most of the others i have seen on here. For the center light, i cut the tail light wire, so it only functions as a brake light.
So, I have single round tail lights, and all three red lights for maximum brake light visibility.
I know this is not proper "JDM".
Just my own little variation on the theme.
As a side note, who ever owned the car before me had definitely been up to something in there! there were 4 wire taps (brake, back up, tail light & both turn signals) so maybe they had a U-haul or something.
More interesting, when I went to cut the tail light wire on the center socket, I unwound the electrical tape and discovered someone had cut the brake light wire to the center light on both sides. so they had stock tail lights, but no brake light in the center position.
So I had to repair that & cut the other wire. I wanted to just switch the tail light wire into the brake light 'hole' on the connector, but it did not want to come out w/o a fuss, and I did not want to force it.
the lack of rear 'side marker' light w/ outside position as brake light only is a small concern. but i like the way the lights came out.

if you are worried about not having rear sidemarkers you could probably get some sidemarkers off ebay and put red bulbs in them. or source them from another car...

JPaul,
i am looking at some kind of side marker,
but have not decided yet.
don't know if there is some piece from an older Sube that might suit me.
i saw the JDM stuff is spendy.
i have to check out car in dark from side & see if it has some lind of reflector effect on side of tail light at least.

[QUOTE=kokob]did it lat night hella easy, no soldering, no cutting just moving around. HELLA TIGHT!!![/QUOTE]
Tried this today on our WRX and it was impossible to get the right bulb and socket to the left (round bump out placement) space without having to add additional wiring.
Can you explain what process you took?
Thanks!

Actually ended up doing this and we swapped the outside socket with the inside one, bulbs as well, and extended the black/ground wire to make the inside one fit. We pulled the middle one out.
Braking with no lights on now causes the round and outside to come on.....not sure what happened there.
