STi aluminium gear surround
Just won one of these on the bay......how easy to fit?
Anyone fitted one to their WRX? It's off the same model year car as mine (2003).

I fitted one on the the wife's 2003 WRX, it's hard work as you have to trim the panel to fit as the WRX is the wrong shape. I used a dremel and you have to be really careful, if you trim too far it knackers the panel and a new one is £110!!!
Good Luck

Hi mate....
did you get any instructions with it....
i fitted a genuine Subaru surround to my UK300
and it was quite straight forward...(mine been the bug-eye shape)
will have a look as i might still have the fitting instructions if you
want them...

Yeah Richie's correct!
Subaru make an accessory for the WRX that's almost rectangular shape and bolts straight on (apart from a wee bit of drilling)
The STI surround is curved at the bottom so needs the trimming I mentioned.
Why not go back to the breaker and see if he has the trim that the surround is normally attached to, then just unclip the old trim and clip the new trim with the surround attached
