Default GC8 roof vent kit part numbers

Howdy,
I only found out 5 minutes ago that apparently the GDB and GC8 roof vent kits are not interchangeable.....darn!
As I'm am trying to find the complete vent for a GC8 version, I am stuck on the part numbers.
Can anyone help me out on the part numbers of the various components, maybe the complete kit has a unique part number as well?

Thanks!

Depends what you are replacing, you can use the Spec C roof vent parts.

Have a look at a thread I posted some time ago

As the parts diagrams have gone awol in that thread here they are for the GC8 fitment (The "DD" at the end of the part number refers to paint code)

Sorry mate didn't realise that you were looking at the whole kit, though you were looking for replacement parts instead. If you have a classic then get a classic vent, wasn't suggesting you use the newage kit instead lol.

Are you looking at ordering directly from Subaru?

Hi, I am looking at ordering from anyone at this moment, as long as it is complete and (nearly) mint.
You think Subaru will still supply therm?

Amayama still have it listed so should be available (if not available it's usually marked as"permanently out of stock* )
As far as the paint colour suffixes for the LID assembly goes they translate as
DD - Sonic blue mica
DE - Sport Blue
HG - Cashmere Yellow
WG - Pure White ?
WI - Feather White

It seems that this is just the lid, not the trim, seals, latch and screws??
Used to hacve a GDB, for which I ordered the vent as well but that came as a complete kit.
Guess I need to source the parts individually for the Classic!

Yes the GDB did come as a kit.

The latch is included with the lid (observe the links on the diagram re: part codes)


All the parts for the classic version are listed above (including qty's required) in my previous post # 3.
