Styling rear light confusion

[kenneth smith]

Ive got a 5dr mk2b active 8v

I was told (by another fiat forum) that the active sport rear lights would fit. But they dont.
Are the 5dr different to the 3dr.
I really like the lights.

Yes, the 5D rear lights differ from the 3D rear lights, sorry mate

3 door has different lights, different tailgate, different parcel shelf, different bumper. none of which will fit 5 door

Glad you mentioned the bumpers being different, i was going to get one on the advice of the 'other' fiat forum.
sounds like your are best guys to ask.

Both different. I agree 3Dr rear light is better looking than 5Dr.

One thing i have noticed (having had both a 5door & 3 door)...
My 3 door active sport seems to suck a hell of a lot more muck up from the road onto the rear window when it's raining.
Not sure if it's to do with the sporting bumper, the rear spoiler or the fact that the Tailgate flows straight down from the window unlike the 5 door which is stepped just below the glass

I can see what you mean looking at a grey car but my car is bright red so I have never noticed it so far anyway!
