Thought you meant std sti wheel. Both will fit but Don's is aftermarket
The type with the Flat bottom isnt actually a subaru Part. Its an aftermarket steering wheel made my DAMD if I recall. available through Japan Parts £378.50 + shipping & import duty.

Anything other than what is fitted as standard or yellow will be useless in the fog, white light reflects off of fog and does not go through it like yellow light.

Guys,
Needing your help. Could one of you please take me some detail photos of your headlining in the area of where a roof vent may be fitted.
I need to have a first hand look inside the hatch at this area but im pretty sure i can get the Spec C flap in there. I just need to know if i can make it look OEM on the inside.
Any help with images would be greatly apprecaited.

Yes been done already, there was a post about a year ago of a red STI from Sweden I think, the poster said it was a Spec C, it certainly had a flap.

Hmmh.
How long since the front brake pads were out of the caliper ?? once the discs and brakes warm through they have been known to bind on the disc causing either a grind or a squeel. Whip the pads out and clean the edges up were they sit on the tin slides and lubricate with alloy grease. Job sorted.
Its a build up of brake dust which sticks to the old grease which makes them sticky.

Drive home (car parked in sun) - silent.....
Hmmh. I'm guessing something's wearing out - or low on lube ?
Gearbox oil ?
Any other possibilities guys.
