Excellent news, would have been a crying shame not to be able to use the newly retrimmed wheel!!

Okay chaps, after 3 nights of airbag nightmares tonight i finally had some success

Cracked the airbag problem tonight, i ended up splicing the new connector to the old loom

So im sorry these aint the best pics but i fired up the defis tonight and checked everything worked perfectly.. which it all does

And may i say it all looks and feels funking gorgeous

Only need to wire up the gauges on the steering column and fit the cowling when my ACT gauge comes back..

Enjoy, were nearly there guys......... nearly there

Frayz, it has come to my attention that you are a pervert!

Good on yer!

Keep up the good work

Alot of people have asked me why didnt i doo the glovebox etc.. Basically because IMO it would be overkill and would spoil the look, i also think it would not stay nice as the glovebox gets touched alot and may not stay in nice condition. For now mate the & seats are staaying as they are the best subaru seats ive ever sat in.. like the black spec c ones but theyre too wide and useless

Its not fully complete yet.. just waiting on my replacement ACT and EGT gauges and then the last of the wiring can be done and the steering cowlings put back on.

Glad you all seem to like it.. I will post proper pics once shes complete

Anything you guys dont like or future ides that you think may work well or complement the interior?

been following the thread Frayz and all I can say is DAMNNNN!!!!!

I've just done my gauges, pods and colour coded dash, but nothing to this extreme, real nice quality job.

I was wondering about the lower dash myself but I understand what you mean about constantly being touched (ooer), however, it all seems to fit really nice the way it's been done

Mike
