Looks spot on!!
How did you mount your screen inside the dash like that? I've seen it done in a few peoples Scoobies it looks
Also how have you bolted you sub box in the boot to stop it flying around? have you clamped it to the top of the boot some how?

Strut Brace was from Revolution

Carbon Door Sill Covers were from some Japaneese firm that I can't remember now, I'll have a look around for you and let you know if I find out. Best part about them is even when the doors are shut, you can see a nice slab of carbon from inside the cabin, I really like them too, payed a fair whack for them mind.

Alright mate,

I mounted the screen by taking the brackets off the OE stereo then attached them to my screen, then simply bolted it back into place, not sure if every unit has the facility but most Kenwoods offer a tilt function with around 7 settings of different angles, select the right angle on the Kenwood and the screen sits perfectly flush, which makes it look like it should have always been there.

As for the sub, I didn't want any bolts/screws involved so I bought loads of 3M double sided adhesive strips, placed some under the sub to secure to the carpet, then placed some under the carpet on the boot floor and some on the underside of the carpet and simply stuck the strips together, does the job nicely instead of getting the drill out and ruining your Scooby!

The seat cover fits perfectly mate, got a nice little Subaru emblem on the front as well in yellow.

Got the cover for £18, think I got it from Scoobyworld who also advertise on eBay:

Subaru Impreza STI style Seat Cover / Protector 1993-07 on eBay, also Seats Seat Customisation, Interior Styling, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 06-Mar-08 23:02:41 GMT)

Looking good mate, although I aint feeling the carbon things or the stickers on the spoiler. Horses for courses that though...

Really like the head unit and may get one of those fitted in mine.

Gorgeous motor m8 were did you get the head unit?
Do all of your mods not affect the warranty on the car? i have an 06 wrx and not sure wether doing anything to it will void the warranty.
Again lovely car.

Aye, some like the more subtle look, some like the in your face style of things, I'm a long way of getting the car fully stickered up with decals galore mind.

The headunit is an amazing piece of kit mate, reads your iPod faster than any other headunit I've seen, literally immediate responses, the bluetooth facility is the best I've ever used as well, crystal clear and again immediate connection to your mobile.

Changed my background now as well, got a nice picture of a WRC Hawkeye STi on it now, another great facility that can be utilised - USB connection.

I got it from an I.C.E store that I know of online - DALCO

Competitive prices and spot on service, he comes highly rated on CTRO which is where I came from car wise.

Anything that is not Subaru verified will void your warranty mate, with safe mods installed professionally to your car these motors are pretty much bullet proof.

For the minimal risk its worth the joy that such mods can bring mate! Plus a lot of mods can be removed if a warranty issue crops up

I'd go for it if I were you.
