Well, did a quick test fit this morning, the good news is the port in the back on the HU isn't occupied so its a straight plug in. The iPod sees the HU and shows the Subaru logo to say its connected. The bad news is the HU does not see the ipod and there is no way to switch the HU to play it.

I'm going to contact my local dealer to see if the HU needs to be reprogrammed or something.

 

That's partially good news...not sure if it's like the old Dension connectors where you need to select a particular tray the CD changer?
When I did my LED reflectors this weekend, I noticed what looks like a connector for a multi-changer in the boot..wonder if it would plug in there? Its on the left hand side underneath the foam tray that the jack handle sits on...
Keep me posted please

 

Anyone recognise this reg? VK58 HCU. It was the previous plate on my STi 330S and I just wanted to know if it used to belong to anyone here, and if it has any history I should know about!

 

looks familiar, post a pick of your car, front, back and side.

 

The plug in question is for towbar wiring.

 

Does anybody know if the xenon light are suppose to do a startup check, like raise up and down like my previous car.

Baz

 

the system does a check to make sure the system is reading correctly, But does not raise & lower the lights

 

Didn't know we had pop up lights!

 

self leveling system mate. both lamps are equipt with motors

 

Thanks for that Rob, my Beemer use to do a startup check by moving the motor up and down.

 

yes i know what you mean mate. they do have motors in the lamps but they do very small movements depending on what the tilt sensors feedback to the BCM

 

Ordered a front bumper lip today from Mark at HT Autos. Got it coming tomorrow so nice day for me saturday fitting Rob's foglight kit, the lip and my new sti centre caps!

 

TNT collected this morning just before lunch, so should be with you tomorrow. Everything is in the box. switch assy & relay. 2 lamps with fittings on them & two covers, all individually bubble wrapped inside a box & the grille in there too

 

Excellent thanks Rob. I'm gonna be like a kid at Christmas tomorrow!

 

I returned the iPod kit and used the money to buy an STI front lip spoiler pick it up on Saturday morning.

 

Fitted a new front lip the other day but its far to low fitted as my cars on the deck , just had to take it off.

 

Thats like £300+?

 

Nope, £248inc Vat about the same price as the iPod adaptor kit so doing a straight swap.

 

Picked the lip spoiler up this morning, fitted this afternoon

 

Very nice. Me too!

 

God that looks good!

 

Thanks matey. Have already scraped the underside on a steep driveway. No visible damage but just reminded me to be careful!

I quite fancy the side skirt extensions next

 

get some more pix of your car up.

 

Don't forget the rear spats.

 

They look good. Ill get those as well then!

 

That lip is so much neater than the current offering from H T Autos. Nice clean lines.

 

is that the OE STi front lip?

 

Yeah fitment is brilliant

 

What's this mean?


Ohhh

 

could fancy a OE sti front lip but not paying silly money
