Default Upgrading classic TMIC to newage WRX TMIC

quick question

If you upgrade the TMIC from classic to larger WRX TMIC, do you need to replace the classic undertray as well ?

okay mickey so in which case how do the holes line up in the bonnet for the under tray. It is just I need to order some bits off ebay and was going to chuck in the under tray but just wanted to check how it all fits.

BTW the front number plate is awesome mate
Zoe never noticed that the plate is actually backed in girly glitter (thank god auto correct didn't change that to Gary Glitter )

No idea how the holes line up. Drill new ones?

Glad Zoe's happy with it.

The WRX Newage one is a totally different size, shape, holes are different etc etc.

I tried this on my old STi but ended up fitting a Classic Zerosport under tray as it was bigger and the fit was better out to the edges of the WRX IC.

Thanks for that. I thought the new age under trays may be a real PITA to fit. So although the Zero sports are expensive at around £90 I might see if they are more suitable
