Dis-carnect Battery Isolator
as the alarm is supposed to be a low current current drain it should not affect the working of the alarm itself - it may affect the siren on activation as this will draw more current

UK v5 Wagon
That will make a difference - used to run mintex pads years ago with Tarox discs - great stopping power, I just seemed to wear them out very quickly :P

Central lock help
Could be an issue with the signal from the key fob not being recieved - or because the setup procedure hasnt worked correctly you could have an issue with the unit itself

you can get a fully carbon piece as a replacement which gives a similar effect not since they changed the rules and I de mobbed - had to give the toys back at the gate :( although to be fair Matelots and firearms are not really a good combination - we are not really safe, more of a danger to ourselves than any impending threat, Marines and Army are far more qualified (safer) than we ever were :D

06 Forester STi front lip spoiler?
If you are on a budget go for the option Gambit suggested if not look at JDM options or something like this from AU http://www.ultrex.com.au/subaru-forester-front-lip-my06my07-p-241.html?zenid=2cda1d915021e3d3929a96fb30aba1c2

HID's
I dont know if what you say is true but you can run a wire / wires protected by an appropriately rated fuse to have a 12v supply which would bypass anything within the loom and have the light switch circuit connected via a relay which would be activated the existing lighting circuit to power the HID. Be aware for MOT purposes HID's need to be self levelling and have a power spray wash linked to windscreen wiper wash to pass

cluster swap
The GX's can look a little basic in areas but most of the pieces in Subarus can change within the year range and as we have seen with a little tinkering can be changed across different models even ;)

Turbo rebuild
£25 is not a lot to know where you stand and then make an informed decision

live in UK
we have decent food and coffee over here now so its way better than it used to be, we still import a lot of wine and Grappa can be got quite easily, your wife could feel right at home - oh apart from the weather of course :) and we dont do fresh urchins either - which is a shame
-
Central lock help
Wotcha and welcome - did the interior light flash and did you get the sound when you connected the wires? Does your alarm work ok from the remote?
-
HID light upgrade
A little early for my experience unfortunatly but hopefully someone who is familiar with that year can help
