Yep ! They fit no probs and take about 15 mins to swap. A couple things to consider are:

My WRX does not have a rear diff temp sensor so the instrument warning light stays on all of the time.

Also the mileage of your car is stored within the clocks themselves so you will need to get the mileage adjusted. This cost me £50 and was done by a mobile fitter.

Just for info the clocks I put in my 2004 WRX were out of a WR1. Got to say though the change was one of the best mods I have made to my car. The shift light and buzzer are fine ! Hope this helps mate !

Wilky.

yes, you'll need to mess about though, i believe there is a howto or a thread on this in North American Subaru Impreza Owners Club you'll have to do a search though.

I need to fit a new set of clocks as mine does not read my speed but the revs work fine so have you got a number for these people who can adjust the millage as i would want mine to read the millage it has done

the diff temp sensor warning light is only on dccd clocks as far as I am aware, and a wr1 has dccd, so these would have this warning light as well, easiest swap is pre 2004 sti uk clocks as these are plug and play on wrx's upto 2005, after 2005 wrx's and sti's have reverse circuits on the abs lights, hence they don't work properly although it is easily fixed with a small relay and a bit of soldering. I did all changes required on mine inside the cluster so my 06 clocks were then a straight swap with my 03 wrx ones.
