Hi Guys! Looking for some guidance here, can a 5 door 2016 I30 be fitted with the same rear light clusters that are fitted to the 3 door, LED looking? If so where can you buy them at a decent price.....???

Perhaps you should visit the dealership armed with a tape measure.  I can't recall that question being asked here before.

The alternative might be to browse scrapyards looking for an i30 that had been written off due to frontal damage.

Lights are the same for 3 and 5 door models, best bet is to search on eBay like I did for new ones or try to find some from a scrapyard like Alan mentioned.

I purchased mine through one of the Korean websites :link: 2012-2017 i30-Elantra GT Factory OEM LED Tail Lights - Shark Racing

Replaced my own with led too! They are AWESOME. I purchased them from ebay and this is a plug and play retrofit!

After being gouged £550 - $940 for the super vision cluster I can only imagine the hit you took for LED tail lights :eek: :undecided: I think my LED's were about $550 or $600 AU if my memory serves me right :undecided: it's mentioned on the forum somewhere when I did the change over.

Yes, that was roughly the price of the tail lights I bought! I was looking for used ones but there was nothing!
