i just wondered if anyone knew the option list for a the v5/6 type r as i had some bloke come out yesterday to sort a bumper scuff he asked if i could remove the fog covers to which i found fog lights behind them is this a optional extra or std fit?

as every other bumper i have bought before either had one or the other.

both the fogs and the covers are genuine subaru so i dont think one has been added later

 

Hi mate i have a typeR v4 and behind the fog light covers i also have fog light but my mate doesnt have anything so im confused it could well be an extra.

 

any one else shed any light on this i also have the air bag on the passenger side to

 

type-rs didnt come with foglights just the covers as std (weight saving)they where prob added when car was purchased or someone added them later

i have airbag on passengers side aswell think the rs with chubby instead of airbag could be due to later v4s as eariler ones may have chubbys instead?
could be wrong though

WRX flavoured Type R's came with visible foglights, Sti versions of Type R's came with fog covers.

Ok but does anyone know if they was a options list?

 

Don't know to be sure Chris, but my V5 Type R Ltd has 'Subaru' part numbered Bilstein Coilovers so they could have been an option when new> you might be better of askingf on the Type-ra site. Lots of info on there for them including sales brochures etc

 

..........but there was never a "Race Altered" Type R

Or wander around the Type R and Type RA forum

I had a late V4 STI type r with no fog lights behind covers and it came with passenger side airbag no cubby box.

 

Sure there was an option for digital climate control

 

Your right mate

this got me thinking so i found this

does anybody know if it would be a straight swap??

thanks ian

 

Be a nice mod if it did/does fit easily

I don't think there could have been that many options for the Type R to be honest

 

gonna look into this hopefully will be a straight swap but i doubt it
