Possibly but I'm not sure how much work is involved with wiring etc, I'd be interested to know.

The black ones were approved by Subaru for the earlier hatches. the blue ones will fit although meant for a later car, just they've not been tested on the later cars for approval

Comes as an accessory kit.

wiring is already there and multi-plugs

all the kit has is a new headlamp stalk a relay, two fog surrounds and two fog lamps. Plug and play really

Rob are you running a HRC fuel pump?

If so how difficult was it to change?
I watched a youtube video from the states for changing to walbro and it looks complicated compared to the one i done on my classic
They talk about trimming bits of plastic of the pump cradle and also off the pump?

I have a Deatshwerkx pump and new filter housing sat here to fit but never done it yet.

But I do have a Walbro GS342 mounted in mine at the moment in a modified housing.

Not difficult to be fair you cant go wrong, just make sure you plug all the holes up when Cutting and trimming the housing.

If you have the 330s nav unit then you need to buy new discs from the dealer or online source

Benji, I think it's almost £200.
don't waste your money on it. not enough road changes to warrant that money.

Thanks, I am popping into my local dealer tomorrow and I will see if I can screw them down on price, I can usually get 15-20% discount on accessories perhaps even more if I can get them to believe the prices I tell them they are online.

I will try them but as I am going to my local dealer Keith Price tomorrow anyway I will see how cheap they are, I have noticed that every accessory part from ICP is more than you would pay from the dealer or even japanparts.com.

I know they have probably bought at the wrong time but they are never going to move them on when they are already selling higher than the dealer network is.

Thanks for the quick delivery, they will be fitted very soon when all the modifications are under way.
