seems as though i'm having one of those days.
drove to my carpooling buddy's house and hit a pothole and punched a hole in the sidewall of my tyre :angry2: , so parked and hitched a ride to uni only to find my stock rear tail light cracked when I returned :angry2:
The crack isn't too bad and iv sealed it with a bit of silicone as a temporary measure, and have been trawling through threads looking for replacement options.

undecided weather to try and find another stock tail light as a replacement or buy a new different/tinted set as i cant seem to find any pics of white wagons with tinted/non stock tail lights. Advice/pics would be much appreciated

IMO the all chrome look too ricey.

I like the red/chrome (I have them) and they look almost factory just better. (You need window tint too. :P )

Theyre Hanabi's and I got them from Japan for $360 via Import Monster.

The ones on Ebay look identical, but pretty sure theyre not Hanabi's. Dont think it would really matter though.

I just posted a thread about MARS lights as well and sent the makers a PM because ive heard the MARS lights are a bit dodgy in the fitment.. They responded by avioding all my questions so ill keep drilling them a bit and find out for us..

This is the ebay listing for the mars ones: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LED-Tail-Lights-SUBARU-Liberty-Legacy-OutBack-03-09-CR-/130491734868?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e61e9db54

Also found a new zealand company that just started making these lights as well. Ebay listing: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SUBARU-LIBERTY-WAGON-2003-EURO-CRYSTAL-RED-TAIL-LIGHTS-/220729657079?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item33648346f7

I originally wanted the Valenti lights which are the ones shown on the silver wagon but there very hard to come by.. Theres only one ebay listing which is in america and they only stock the full chromes ones.

Try and PM this guy....viewtopic.php?f=25&t=7253........twpanson

I also got a set of full clears from MARS they did fit OK but did'nt like the look on a silver car might look good on a dark car tho :)
