Can't see any point in front fog lights,the money would of been better spent on the 'Sports grille' I think:)

I think it’s fantastic to drive. Best of the test drives I had by far. You’ll have to go for a test drive and make your own mind up. There are a lot of people on this forum that absolutely detest the car (and with a passion), but I very much doubt if most of them even own a car. Most of the comments come from people more worried about spots on their face than 300BHP under their right foot.:lol1:

At the end of the day it is up to you.:thumb:

I think it is a lovely motor and if i could afford one i would buy one.

Personally i like the saloon and the new one but can only afford a saloon.

Very nice though mate...

Looking good John!

Looks much better with the fogs IMHO.... but then again, I may be biased ;)

Would love a driving light option though, then they might actually get switched on ;) Lets see what Prodrive come up with!

mickp 07 April 2008 08:08 PM

Looks great John. Did you fit and what did the kit cost and consist of ??

Cheers

Mike

Part No. H4510FG040 (FRT Fog lamp kit STi)

Total including VAT and labour: £384.85

That seems a fair amount for something that I'd use only sparingly - are they any good for blinding the tw*ts coming the other way that won't turn theirs off and is the button in a quickly accessible place? ;)

dunx 07 April 2008 08:53 PM

Not on as standard !

Shock LOL !

DunxC

P.S. I tried it but didn't buy it, too little money....

Its not just about having something to use, its also about improving the looks of the car!

The same can be said for a lip spoiler, window tints or graphics - at least the fog light do something ;)

Personally, I'm not keen on the sports grille - looks like there is something missing! The STi grill is a big improvement over the standard Impreza/WRX grille and the best option IMHO!

would look even more betterer with the splitter too;)

Scooby Wagon 07 April 2008 10:48 PM

Want the fogs for ours as well, but told they were on back order, may rarly use them, but they do improve the look of the front end :D

Shark 08 April 2008 08:07 PM

John

Can you let me know where the switch goes? (For the fogs)

Is it above the mirror controls to the right of the dimmer?

I looking at phone kit options and don't want to get in the way of the switch should I decide to fit fog or driving lights if Prodrive come up with them.

Thanks

David

ballsie 08 April 2008 08:10 PM

I hadn't realised that these were a dealer fit option. I thought you'd have to get them installed at the factory.

That's almost pornography! :notworthy

codie247 08 April 2008 08:37 PM

New fog light switch is part of the new indicator stalk supplied with the lights.

It is on the light stalk. No new button required.:)

renny 09 April 2008 04:57 PM

HHhhmm,not a great lover of front foglights myself and at £380 as well :eek:

Driving lights would be interesting i suppose but i doubt we'll be seeing them from Prodrive but you never know.

Shark 09 April 2008 08:11 PM

Thanks Lee & John
