0Tyrael0 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Alright still pretty new to Subaru so got a couple of questions for ya. 1. Alright my side markers are really fogged up and what not. Where can I get new ones? I searched some oem part sites like subaruparts.com and couldn't find any. Maybe I am looking under the wrong tab... suggestions? 2. I have a 99 2.5 GT so I have a wing with a 3rd brake light mounted on it and its cracked open. Still works just broken. I have found that part quoted by a dealership at like $250+ for the part?! So any suggestions here? Thanks for the help. I searched around a bit on the forum but nothing popped up right away. If there is a thread feel free to just point me to it.

0Tyrael0 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Got ya. There just isnt a lot of junk yards in my area... as far as the side markers go will the impreza ones fit? I found quite a few of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 no go on those, they have a small curve near the corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Tyrael0 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Ah too bad... What about this? http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/search/?N=0&Nr=AND%28wpn_tl_name:Headlights+%26+Lighting,wpn_cat_name:Turn+Signals\%2C+Side+Markers+%26+Other+Lights,wpn_scat_name:Side+Markers+%26+Components%29 Ordering this like this has worked for me in the past. Surprisingly a lot of the parts from them for some of my other cars fit perfectly. But sometimes its garbage. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 just so im not selling you wrong info.. you mean headlight sidemarkers and not the jdm sidemarkers on the fender right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Tyrael0 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 No I mean side markers. Like the ones on the fender. No not worried about the turn signal/sidemarker combo next to the headlights. Sorry should have been more specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0Tyrael0 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Alright I know this is like a 00 or somthing but it has what I am talking about. Its the yellow thing on the fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 yeah dude, those had to be installed by the PO because those arent stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Tyrael0 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Really?! well thats interesting. Maybe I will just take them off. To be honest im not sure if they light up or just reflect light. I haven had the car but a couple of weeks and most of that it spent in the shop getting fixed up. Perhaps I will just take them off... well I will post an actual picture of the car tomorrow and im sure you will be able to tell for sure then.

Zues Marine Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 well hopefully they didn't drill holes into the fender to keep them there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Tyrael0 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 :sigh: Indeed that would be annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaz98gt Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 You could always just put up a reflector piece without a bulb if they did actually drill holes. But that sucks, this sounds pretty obnoxious dude. Pics please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Tyrael0 Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 Alright picture taken outside, in the dark, under weird parkinglot lighting, by a cellphone, of a dirty car so... here you go lol. Also a little background on the car. My friend works at my local subaru dealer and owns 4 subies himself. He recommened the car to me. 1999 Legacy GT limitied. Has 130K miles. 5 speed. Interior is in perfect condition. Outside has a few scratches on the front and rear bumper but no dents or dings. Has some weird markers on the fenders as you can see. But anyway love it so far and picked it up for $3600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
