Who needs advice?!
He could've just walked in, pulled up the book or the little computer thing.. got the part number for the Sylvania bulb he needed, and he's done.
But no, he calls a dealership because if he doesn't get a subaru bulb he's going to feel less complete.

Yea, I'll probably do that next time. When he gave me the price of 1.44 I questioned and asked again "2003 wrx driver side tail light for a sedan, the inner, single filament bulb is that cheap?" He said yep. When I got a 6.50ish price from Capitol + LICMotorsports sayin around 7 bux, that to me sounds like the same part i'm speaking about =P.

Just look up the bulbs here next time:

(make sure you bookmark it)
It's much easier that way. Or you can take the bulb out and find a match at any local automotive parts store.

How many forum members does it take to replace a light bulb...
...I am seeing quite a few boneheads, none of which seem to be from the Stevens Creek Parts dept

Tail light bulb just stays lit with the light switch on the on position and stop light bulbs are the dual filament ones that light up when the brake is depressed or light switch is on.
