Great work chaps.

If anyone wants this done in Essex, i know a man who can.

Heres a guide for newage cars

Scoobypedia | Trusted knowledge for everything Subaru | Projects / Installing a Spec C Roof Vent

 

whats he charge for that

 

Great job guys,looks the dogs. Where did you get the roof vents from as i think im going to do mine now.


Cheers Dougie

 

You can get the full kits new from japanparts but beware you will probably pay duty on them when they come in the country , other than that a breakers or ebay

 

Fantastic, that DBM classic is ****ing lovely. Wouldnt mind a roof vent myself, I do go to Llandudno quite often

 

Could someone tell me the benefits of a roof flap? I've seen these on a spec c and I think a classic type r? what purpose do they serve?

 

hmmm sort of tempted

 

Keep you cool well on track

 

Id do your wagon Granby if you got worried.

 

Thats what i wanted to hear , i will have to think about it

 

Haha, wuss

No worries mate, keep me posted.

Merv and i are either side of the country... so between us, we have the South of the UK cover for roof vent intallation/help/guidance.

 

 

Yup, we've got it pretty much covered Tin opener anyone?

 

This is not a mod to think about Granby just buy it and do it the more you think about cutting a hole in the roof the less you will want to do it

We both picked ours up from jap performance parts... we did originally look at new ones from japan from japanparts which was viable until the exchange rate went pop and the prices shot up then got second hand kits for the same price as we would have had the new ones for originally.

 

Right here we go these are Kev's pics.....























Scarey stuff

 

Spot on I think you will agree

 

Thanks for uploading my pic's Si

At this point I thought Oh well no going back now.




Merv and Ellis did a great job

 

Franchise anyone

 

As Si said we picked the flaps up secondhand, both of them were in great condition but sonic blue so they had to be painted. Even new the flaps only come painted in a few basic colours so budget for that if your colour is not available from the factory.
As they were being painted we decided to loose the OE sticker on the underside of the vent and glad we did, I'm so pleased, the cool grey works very well with the grey trim

 

dropped mine off at the sprayers today, along with a couple of little gems I picked up for bargin, took me about 20 minutes to swap them over, have the white one at the moment to keep the rain out

 

Looking good

Did mine on my classic... but not sure if i have the bollox to do one on my new-age

 

Cracking job!

If only I didn't have a bloody sunroof

 

I'm sure myself or Frayz could cater for you

 

Yep, either Merv or I can fit for you.

 

At least you've got a spare one Danny Get some pics up when it's clea.... fitted

 

You know you want to

I have been out for a little run tonight after changing the top mount over to make sure all was sealed well and when getting near home and dropping speed I thought flaps up and from a practical point of view they certianly let some air into the cabin ! this is going to be great in the warmer weather with no air con fitted it has to be one of the best mods I've done for a long time.

Yes lets see a few pics there Danny

 

looking great guys

 

looks great guys its on my list of jobs to do, think i would need a trip down to Essex tho, it would scare the S*** out of me.

 

what are they like when shut at speed??? do they leak any air in?? more noise??

 

well done lads!!!
put one on my newage few months back and think it looks great!!!
