Get rid of them, looks much better without! Also, they can damage the paint when you remove them, so do it before the paint shop visit.

Subaru do them for half that price. Ask the nice man in the parts department for the old catalogues.

forgot to press the control button for the pound symbol. It is revolution that i found them for £160, but tbh that to me is rediculas. I will try subaru tomorrow see what they have to offer. They do leave a horrible line where the double sided tape is used, but they do look good i think, everyone to their own i suppose

If someone does speak to Subaru could you post up the part No. please. My local branch is next to useless but with a part No. might stand a chance. Driving around with just a passenger side one on at the moment.

It also depends if you have a A pilar mounted arial or not, as there are two different part numbers.
