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 multiple functions including a rear brake light, rear fog light, and a unique F1-style blinking reverse light, enhancing both safety and aesthetics. It’s ideal for Subaru enthusiasts looking to improve rear visibility while adding a distinctive OEM+ style element to their vehicle’s exterior lighting.
Engineered with precision, the OLM NB+R lamp features a clear lens with a gloss black base and a white bar design that mimics the iconic Formula 1 rear light style.
