Can anyone help regarding the fog lights, I'm looking for a "white" light replacement for the fog light so they match the LED sidelights.
Also what size are they (H1) etc ??
Cheers Ian

I'll look into this as I'm sure the glass of a forrester would fit in the housing of the hatch as they are the same, you'd just need to follow Don's guide and fit the 2 extra wires each side

Can't help on size but it will be in the handbook anyways, what I can say though is that 'white light' is not very good for fogs being used correctly and what you have or yellow are better, unless that is you just want to drive round with them on looking cool, which I'm sure we have all done in the past!

The 2011 WRX STi comes with heated mirrors - I assume they are the same as the early Hatches

I'd love to know this also.
I'm sure someone on the hatch forum fitted the rather expensive Subaru offering.
I once found details on the nasioc site, but i wouldn't be brave enough to attempt it.
