W444AJD Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Hi all - hoping to get myself an Impreza wagon shortly, will likely be a hawkeye wagon NA 2.0 - I know the turbos are much more fun! - but just a couple questions for you experts... Parcel shelf cover - it's missing! does the same part from the bug eye and blob eye fit the hawkeye wagon? These seem to fetch as much as £50 on eBay...bit of a bummer that it's missing. I'm looking at this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2006-BLACK-SUBARU-IMPREZA-R-SPORT-2-0-PETROL-MANUAL-4X4-2-KEYS-XENONS-FULL-HIST-/272274217861?hash=item3f64cedb85:g:OwAAAOSwGIRXYEbK The price looks really good? So I'm thinking it must have some possible issues - maybe clutch needing doing? It all checks out with HPI etc, 1 owner since new. Headunit - the factory fit one looks crap, so would want to fit an aftermarket single DIN one with Bluetooth, USB etc. Think I read it's not standard size? So do you guys know the best fascia adaptor kit to go for? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CT24SU06-Subaru-Impreza-2002-2007-Car-Stereo-Single-Double-Din-Fascia-Panel-/261975581880?hash=item3cfef624b8:g:~zQAAOSwgQ9VrkMO maybe something like that? Thanks very much for any advice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJP02 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 The sterio on my wrx was factory double din I fitted a single and used the existing brackets and used one of the tray fillers, bit of fiddling and it looked good, on my sti i just got a double din kenwood, dab Bluetooth all the bits for under £200, looks better fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W444AJD Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 @Piggysniffer - I fitted a Sony MEX-N5100BT head unit to replace the stock single DIN one. It was an easy swap, just followed a handy youtube video - just a few screws to remove and use the existing bracket. Had to buy wiring loom adaptop from eBay at £3.50 and also ISO to DIN adaptor for the radio aerial cable at £1.60. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W444AJD Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 https://youtu.be/Uj9lzb3dcCM thats the video I used - OK its a double DIN but same principal. I didn't bother completely unscrewing the gearstick btw as it wasnt necessary. eBay bits needed: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/250413926808?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252218630012?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT and the final result...
