Overview
The OLM NB+R F1 Rear Brake Light is a stylish and functional upgrade designed specifically for the 2015-2021 Subaru WRX and WRX STI, with compatibility extending to the 2013+ Crosstrek (harness sold separately). This rear lamp combines a rear brake light, rear fog light, and a unique F1-style blinking reverse light into one integrated unit. It enhances both the aesthetics and safety of your Subaru by improving rear visibility and adding a distinctive visual signature that stands out on the road and at meets.
Engineered with precision, this OLM lamp features a clear lens with a gloss black base and a vibrant red bar that mimics the iconic Formula 1 rear light design. The included plug-and-play harness simplifies installation, allowing Subaru enthusiasts to upgrade without cutting or tapping into factory wiring.

Beyond its striking appearance, the NB+R F1 Rear Brake Light delivers real-world benefits by increasing rear visibility in adverse conditions with its integrated rear fog light. The blinking reverse light function adds an extra layer of safety by alerting others when you are backing up, a feature that can be toggled off for a standard reverse light operation. This combination of form and function makes it a smart upgrade for Subaru owners who want to enhance their vehicle’s presence and safety without compromising factory aesthetics.
