February 6, 20169 yr Taking the light out is a bumper off job so not that easy. Shall see what I can sort out in the morning.
February 7, 20169 yr Yay, It's car insurance time... managed to find 452 from "quotemehappy.com" on Compare the market. I'm reasonably happy with that.
February 7, 20169 yr Yer thought I would look in local shop before driving out to you. They had the graber thing for £1 so worth every penny. I did it before in the mondeo but the headlights come out very easy so that was simple to fix.
February 7, 20169 yr Changed n/s headlight bulb and now practically need a skin graft on my knuckles..... And polished the lenses with toothpaste as they were starting to yellow and haze a bit. Another small job jobbed, next to plan replacement rear tyres and another oil change..... 400miles a week means these things are coming round far too quickly! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 7, 20169 yr I think Subaru do lights as an after thought. On the hatch you have to take the air box system out on one side and the battery out on the other. Also leds only work one way round so it's a pain having to disconnect the battery then connect it up just to check you have the bulb the right way round.
February 7, 20169 yr Glad you've sorted it and a magnet on a stick is a must for any tool box when you're working on scoobies ☺ Can you not remove the !Removed! guard from under the front arch to get to them ? If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊

February 8, 20169 yr Exhaust is done at last. Been a long slog to get it done but now have a full 3 inch turbo back with bell mouth and 100 cel cat. Need the remap next to get the power out of it.
February 8, 20169 yr @Xander how does it drive now without a remap,i want to change rest my exhaust but wouldnt be able to remap it for a couple months after,just wondering if it would still drive ok without problems.
February 8, 20169 yr Been a while since I posted as I tried to resist upgrading anything for a year but gotten myself hooked again after I had to do a bit of general servicing replacing the wheel bearing on nsf of my blob wrx and done the alternator/power steering belt and aircon belt which was a doddle then got thinking about smartening her up for the summer and ended up ordering fog light covers, sti front splitter, new vinyl's and paints to smarten up the calipers, engine bay, change hella horns colour and taking a few parts for dipping too then a few performance mods will be done over the spring/summer!

Only just ran it home with the bell mouth but it has been running fine with the sports cat and 3 inch for a few weeks. A lad local to me ran a full decat 3inch for a few months without problems. I also don't boot it that much but have felt the boost cut at times. I will be doing remap soon as I can but wouldn't say it feels like it needs one.

I blame the credit card it's too easy to spend money that 'I can pay back later'

Gambit that picture is 100% true haha I might be sacrificing a holiday abroad for my car at this rate! Haha a new lady friend distracted and slowed down my lust for new parts, rest assured I'm back and got lots of plans! After I'm satisfied with the visual look inside and out planning on a new turbo (vf34/35) custom made turbo back exhaust with a high flow sports cat, pink sti injectors, walbro fuel pump, short air k&n or cosworth style ram intake or cold intake system, uprated turbo to intercooler 'Y' pipe and maybe sti larger intercooler, NGK PFR 7B uprated spark plugs and a remap by andy forest to finish it off fingers crossed none of it goes wrong then it's on to getting a nice set of brembo stoppers, coilovers and uprated anti-rollbars and few other small handling perks! Had some lovely drives so far and loving the car as it is but lusting for more adrenaline speed and noise!
February 9, 20169 yr Failed at fitting speakers in my front doors... the adapters no where near line up with the original holes... which kinda defeats the purpose... :/
February 9, 20169 yr Author Moved house so no garage at the mo treated her to this http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=361273160243&alt=web So at least i won't have to sit on drive warming up for long now And ordered some fuel/oil hose and a couple of blanking plugs to be able to install the catch can

Slightly confused about how this would work day to day in terms of resticking it? Looks hard wired. I may be thinking all wrong though?
February 9, 20169 yr Got there in the end.,.. had to drill new holes in the adapters so they would fit in the original mounting holes
