Hi lads, bit of an odd sign up here as its not an impreza but my dad has recently bought a Forester SF5(i think) on a V reg(1999/2000) and its basically my job to get it into shape.
I was just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction of a few parts like window switch unit clips and the overhead clock unit, and a front grille badge as some **** has nicked it, maybe some breakers near west yorkshire or anyone know of any breakers(tried the ones on eBay) or if the impreza parts are the same
I've already started to refurb them standard wheels for him as he's impressed with the work on my car
Hpe you don't mind me being on here as the forester isn't really seen as a scooby....especially as he didn't opt for the turbo
Cheers

Doesn't matter that you don't have an Impreza, loads of people on here don't have one and there are lots with foresters too I think. I may be wrong but I thought Foresters are fairly similar to Impreza's under the skin anyway so there should be loads of help here anyway.
Hope you enjoy the forums

p.s. Forgot to say, might be worth popping across to General as well for Forster info etc.

cheers mate....I did join at subaruforester.org but they seemed to be a bunch of retards......didn't even get a welcome
will get pics of the car if anyone is interested....its only a basics GL model with the low box but its actually really comfy and nice to drive....got some pics of the wheels i been doing and my car for now though
wheels with almost new snow tyres all round :
and my Mazda(keeping with the jap theme):
(not sure if you're interested in that lol)
hoping to get the forester to a similar condition with colour coded bumpers and such

EDIT: and yeah i know my typing is crap lol....so try to decipher it as best as possible
anyways...what happened to the first post parts enquiry....is it evident i go off-topic a lot?
