  1. Black zx10r, also struggling to keep that clean for long!
  2. I do have tweeters in the doors, next to the mirrors infact in a little plastic moulding - my plan was to swap like for like, just better quality materials etc so the sound is better! Haven't had anything out yet to check the makes and models, I'm waiting for a day off work with enough free time to give me an hour to look at it ☺
  3. Ah ok, I'll get the tape measure out and check the fronts, yes you're right the rears don't go all the way down so should be fine with those ☺ the sat nav is indeed the built in one in the plastic pod thingy on the top of the dash, above the stereo unit. I've been searching for iso leads relating to this model Forester, i think the grom device that has bluetooth and usb uses the same port as the sat nav plugs into which may cause a problem! Its listed as compatible with my year model but again getting info on it is difficult....short of dropping £100 on it and trying it out i guess?
  4. I think the speakers are the easy bit, i can make up some spacers with mdf and push them out a little so as to permit the windows opening fully, i just don't want to start spending money on a new head unit and then not have all the parts i need when i take it apart - i only use sat nav when i get stuck in traffic and try to nip around it using side streets, but I'd like to keep it working if i change out the head unit. Asking in Halfords just ends up with blank looks.....
  5. Yeah I've been looking at mudguards but as yet haven't really found anything i like the look of.....plenty of generic ones on ebay, some Forester specific ones but they seem to be in the USA so postage is often as much as the flaps!
  6. I am looking to replace the factory fitted 6 disc stereo system and speakers with something a little more meaty. Not interested in going down the route of subs and amps, just a good quality head unit and speakers, ideally with a usb port so I can run music off a memory stick or my android phone. From reading around there seems to be an issue with the sat nav being connected to the stereo, is it possible to install an aftermarket stereo and still retain the function of the built in sat nav? Would i be better off going for something like one of those 'grom' bluetooth usb devices that connects into the back of the stereo (about £100) and sticking with the standard system to retain the sat nav facility?
  7. Thanks, she is a beauty! Black cars are an !Removed! to keep clean though, should have known better with having a black bike!
  8. Newbie Subaru owner here, got myself a lovely black 2005 plate 2.5xt, done 140k but can only be described as immaculate! Already addicted to the noise and turbo shove, coming from a Volvo t5 that didn't hang about that's saying something.....not so sure the dogs are too keen though?
