Are these side signal lights available?

Is there a source where I can get a pair of the signal lights for the front fenders that were on JDM and I expect some European market SVXs?

Thanks,
Rod.

Thanks! I'd checked eBay tonight but didn't find anything.

Don't you have them on your car, do you have any side lamps?

Only on the corners-- North American cars don't usually get the side markers that are between the front wheels and the doors.

Re: Are these side signal lights available?

So are you looking to get OEM front wings or just going to cut out some holes?

They say JDM Alcyone, but they look an awful lot like the sidemarkers about 50% of the USDM Imprezas got. I've bought those for as little as $8 shipped. Those shown might be a bit longer than the USDM Impreza ones, but the shape is identical, as is the mounting tabs.

Just going to drill out the holes. Did the same thing once to a 911. Kind of a sick feeling doing it, but I got over it...

Thanks -- I had the same idea after googling a bit last night. I'll try the dealer to see what they've got.

They're silly expensive from the dealership- just try a junkyard, eBay, nasioc.com, or rs25.com. If I had a set lying around I'd send them for the cost of shipping.

Re: Are these side signal lights available?

If I am not mistaken, SVXi that come with those lights have grooves specially pushed in the metal (fenders) for them. Dunno how those will look like if you only drill your fenders for this.

I used to have them in my fenders... installed smaller Peugeot ones instead.
I would recommend you use a nice set from a Nissan Versa.

Yes, the Impreza fender is stepped in to accommodate the sidemarker. I imagine from the looks of them the JDM SVX fenders would need to be as well.
