Takes a bit of getting used to having a flat base.

No warning light came on then?

Lined up on it did it need tracking?

Flat bottom felt odd pulling off the drive, but after a few more turns it felt good.

Most performance cars coming with flat bottom wheels these days, so modernises the interior a bit.

No warning lights.

It's lined up ok, not perfect, but wasn't beforehand either. Motorway will be the real test.

Motorway was the killer for me lol
Took it back to the dealer and they tracked it up lovely, why ever they couldn't have done it when they had it in.. but to be fair town driving it wasn't that noticable when you get various cambers on roads and pot holes lol

Question Hatchback fog light kit H4510FG040

Hi
Anyone know the cheapest place to get the front fog light kit from, for my sti Impreza hatchback. Think it finishes off the front end with the Subaru sports stainless grill set.


Any help or advice is appreciated

Adam

Subaru stealers want £285 all in delivered. Which includes plastic bezels/fog lights/relays and replacement stalk.

Seeing the foglights are £90+ a piece it's not a bad price for what you get.

my thoughts exactly - £285 for everything is a bargain all things considered!
