Default Help please led brake light problem

Hi all....

Any help would be greatfully received...

About 6 years ago I purchased a High level STI spoiler for my 02 STI Impreza, I got it from a company called DR Motorsport - back in the day this was the spoiler to get - was made of very good material and had a clear brake light with red led's in it.. the led brake light is held in with 2 screws so is easy to take out if needed...

This was the best non oem spoiler available and thats why I got it but the led's in the light have now started to fail, I have contacted DR Motorsport but there are no replacements available now as designs of spoilers change from year to year..

Can anyone help me out where I could possibly get a replacement led lamp from or if anyone has a spare lamp from one of these spoilers they would sell me?

many thanks all...

Andy

You MIGHT pick one up on e-bay, but being as how those spoilers are rare, maybe not

Can you get the brake-light to bits? If so, it wouldn't be that hard to solder in a whole new set of LEDs.

If it looks glued, try a heat gun or hairdryer to melt the glue.

Thanks for the reply, I might try and see if it will open up... there are some numbers on the lense of the light as follows...

1M
20136
S8
E9
7R02577

12-14V

If this means anything to anyone??

cheers

Hi Andy,
I'm having this exact same issue, did you find where to get a new unit from?

Cheers
