Ive been quoted a grand to fit Defi gauges into my classic (i dont think so), and wondered if anyone else knows another company who can perhaps supply and fit the Prosports? id have a go myself by i have a very low temper threshold. On motorbikes things are more accessable which is more my bag..
I stopped and chatted to a fellow Scoobie owner today when i noticed he had a triple console of Defis..they looked fantastic but they were already fitted when he bought the car...
Any help would be great.

Don't know whether they stock Defi or Prosport gauges but...

I've had various electrical work done by Subaru specialists/engine builders/tuners/mappers ZEN Performance, and can't fault their competence in sparky work as well!

They're in Wellingborough, middle-England lol -- hopefully you're not a million miles away...?

a grand!!!! jog on!!! lol

try here for the gauges 52mm and 60 mm

Stepper Motor/Peak Series : RSpec.co.uk, Performance products for performance cars

these are identical in every single way to prosports, but cheaper.

I had a prosport oil pressure gauge and one of the rspec boost gauge, and they daisy chain to each other!!! so if that isnt proof enough I dont know what is!! lol

They are really easy to fit mate honest, the only tool that you MUST have is a multi meter, obviously.

Remember the pound is still low against the yen. My defi's cost me about £600 fitted three years ago, from the same dealer they are now about £1000 and they haven't increased there fitting charge its just defi's (like most Jap stuff at the moment) are expensive because of the low pound.

Have you tried a few places i.e. Scoobyclinic, Revolution. Not sure where your based but most tuners supply/fit defi's.

The quality/look of the defi's is second to none, IMO .

too far from me, other wise I would have fitted them for you. (for a small fee)

I bought mine from Scoobyworld and fitted myself, but they do offer a fitting service.
Impreza Gauges, Gauge Pods, Boost Gauges and Packs, Sandwich fitting kits and gauge holders :

This is where I would go.

fit them yourself it really is a doddle and you dont need any specialist tools (not even a multi meter) you can have it done in less than 3 hours

I have the R-Spec gauges, cost about £150 for the boost, Oil Temp and Oil Pressure gauges, and £60 for the Pillar Pod.

Take a look at the guide on here, really isn`t that hard to fit them. So far I`ve managed to fit the gauges into the Pod, feed all the wiring into the engine bay (gromet already in place), connected the boost gauge (works fine) and made a adaptor lead to get power to the gauges. Just need to connect up the oil senders.

I`m sure someone on here will help you out if you get stuck.

ive already got a pillar mounted boost gauge, and i havent seen volts, or fuel/air gauges offered by them...still not sure about fitting myself as i have been known to get seriously violent when thinks snap, dont work, bend etc hehe..im talking hammer through bonnet angry!! honest..

Fitting them yourself is easy enough 'IF' you're handy with a spanner and basic wiring etc..

I did my own and from what I've seem of a lot of 'pro' fits mine are OE spec..!

If you do them yourself get a few meters of spiral wrap off eBay, finishes the whole job off, keeping wiring safe and tidy..

FWIW, I've mounted my three defi's on top of the dash, above the clock, using the stand alone pods. IMHO looks very nice..

Here's a pic of two, before I later fitted a third, which now looks aesthetically better:
