Default S203 or s204

I am trying to buy the black heater dials from a dealer, however I need a chassis number to order parts, has anyone a chassis number I can use to order parts, or know of a dealer that can source them without this hassle, I only want the black dial faces and silver trims for the ***** as I am having my console carbon dipped in gloss black, if anyone can help it would be appreciated,

I think black ***** will be best part of £150 but need to confirm, the carbon dipping I have been quoted at about £50 for gloss black finish, I just fancy something different to the normal satin black and as I am fitting a black double din head unit want it to match a little better.

I only want the black dial faces and silver trims, as going for carbon dipped panels, looking at prices on Japan parts I aren't expecting any change from £150 for these bits, but the whole kit is £280 on Japan parts but then you have shipping and any Import taxes so £450 is not unrealistic to get them to your door, we all know how much our government want our money. I can order dials from Japan parts but was hoping to save hassle of import duty and get an overall price from a dealer, they are willing to help but I don't have the part numbers and they can't get on system to check without a chassis number.

Would Subaru IM have the Chassis number of a JDM car on the system or are you using someone outside the dealer franchise?

Just a thought.

Plastidip is best sourced from the Plastidip website - I have a small can of matt black and blaze red on order but they won't be able to deliver until early May

I'm going to have a go at spraying the hazard switch red rather than trying to source a JDM one!

The hazard switch illuminates so will be difficult to do it good, they can be ordered from subaru uk and aren't that expensive, think I paid about £30 for one about 4 years ago
I like this one I have found on line , needs the silver outer dial trims from s204 though to finish it off

Yeh I spoke to them a couple of weeks ago, waiting for stock to come in.

Got my jdm hazard switch already, got it from import car parts last week 30 odd quid.

There are plasti dip suppliers in the uk now with it always in stock don't need to wait for it to come in from the USA anymore.

It's not always in stock, black regularly runs out and I have had to wait on two occasions for it to come back in stock
