hey. just got myself first impreza. its a 98 type-r. im tryin to fit my double din headunit but when i take the centre console fascia off and put the stereo cage in theres nothin to hold it. the space inside console is good bit bigger than cage. is there ment to be some kind of bracket inside the console thats missing? ive tried searching this on net but cant find anythin on it. only getting single din pockets when searching. any1 no if i need a fitting or where to get one?

cheers

Not sure on the Classic but my Newage had two L-Shaped brackets that bolted into the bash and the sides of the stereo.

As far as I know the classic was not designed i the days of double DIN hence why its such a pain to get one to stay in place.
They is a little metal lip/bracket type thing just under the ashtray, Its a good enough point to fix a bracket to I would have thought, but out of the box a double DIN wont just plug and play.
I might be proven wrong about this, but as far as I know thats the case.

I've gotta 97 Type r with a double din. Fitted a new shape UK speck radio the other day.

When you've taken the surrond off(goes all the way round the gear stick) there should be 4 screws holding a cage inplace 2 near the top and 2 near the bottom!! Quite obviouse. Then ALL of the dash inc the ash tray below will slide out then there is 2 screws on each side! Just unplug and do in reverse to fit!!

Hope this helps was quite stieght forward
