Default 2006 console/dash swap done
A few pics. of the finished dash and console swap......from 2003 STi to 2006 style
Along with a 2006 Black STi Spec-C Type RA interior, inc. steering wheel, door trims etc
I went with the black s204 console panels and S204 style STi trim.
Handbrake lever is import special Momo.
Dash clocks are the Defi style and work perfectly.









Hope you like 'em

I want to do that to mine, but have the silver style. How hard was it? And where did you source the console? Cheers.


Looking good btw, job well done.

Centre console looks sooooo much better like that, as opposed to tacky silver!

i am after putting in my alpine cd player, but obviously the standard stereo is twice the size... so would need a blanking plate/storage box similar to what you have here...

just wondered where you got it from?

The black pocket with lid is from a Legacy.

Glad you all like it

That's an excellent job you've done there.Well done!!!!
Just out of interest,what price was the handbrake cover and where did you get it from? (Been after a nice one for mine for some time)

Cheers

The STi Spec-D comes with a single-din radio, and uses this pocket converter. Not sure if its a forester one or a special one.
