I am yet to find or see headlights thast look like mine. If you think you can help I can mail you a picture, but the origional owner ordered the cart with replacement headlights and tail lights. The headlights are carbon fiber (to fit the per igsisting light) with two (one large and one small, high and low beam) round lights that are so bright and so hot that they get me oulled over, and burn holes in people pants that get to close when they are on. My problem is that the low beam lens covers for the light cracked in a drift race. I am looking for replacements. Just send your email addy with your responce and I will send a pic of the car. Thanx, and good luck

Either morettes or knockoff ebay morettes. the STi ones wrap around to the corner light.

$100/pair on ebay, but the carbon fiber might make them slightly more difficult to find.

Thanx. I have been checking on ebay for a few mths now, Im just looking for the temp. resistant glass lenses. I will keep my eyes out, closer then before. The Dealership told me the origional owner ordered them that way, (Im not one to beleave a dealership). thanks tooocool.

LevisImpreza · 01-08-2006, 10:59 PM

I FOUND MY HEADLIGHTS!!!!!!!!! And yah, like everything else they are expensive. They are from the manufacturer. I found this on line:
2001 was really a carryover year for the RS, with only minor interior and exterior upgrades, such as carbon fiber dash accents offered as standard, special edition carbon fiber headlights and no major mechanical changes. Having manufactured less than 1,000 units in 2001 with this package, Subaru decided to add some boy-racer looks to the RS.......

LevisImpreza · 01-08-2006, 11:05 PM

Thanks tooocool for the info, to be honest with ya, I never knew what a morette was till I got on here. It helped with the search for my lights. Thanks again, later bro,

Haha well... I ordered the H4 Narva +50 bulbs and some H3 yellow fogs for my Piaa's. I installed the H4's tonight and was comparing them to what I had before. They didn't look really different at all.. Sure enough the previous owner had the same exact bulbs so I just wasted $34.. Oh well

Yesitsdrew5310 · 01-21-2006, 12:33 PM

HAHA oh man, that stinks. Well put the old bulbs back in and use em till one of them burns out. Then throw the others in.
