How To: WRC Tail Light Mod.

[R3V]

This is my first "How-to". This is a very simple mod that IMO looks far superior to the JDM tail mod.


Just did the conversion and it was incredibly easy. You'll need:


04/05 Tail lights
Socket Wrench
Several minutes. Probably around 6.


This is what I wanted it to look like:







This is how it turned out:









To do this:

1. Pull out tail by peeling back the trunk liner and loosening the bolts.
2. On the outermost bulb, cut the red wire.
3. Put it back in, only the center will light now when the lights are on, and all lights come on when the brake pedal is applied.
4. Done.

The bottom strip is lit too its just all about angle with these. They dont look exactly like it because the lights are actually different on the WRC car. Damn close and great looking though. More unique then the JDM mod. Pic!:
