Default Blobeye to hawkeye

Does anyone have a guide on changing a blobeye front to a hawkeye front at all?

Are the wires in the harness a different colour? I assumed you would just be able to chop the plug off and match and solder the wires lol.

Hawk STI's are cheap is not cost effective to sell yours and buy a new one?

Depends what you want. You can recoup most of your money selling the blob front end.

The hawk front panel is about £70 from subaru.

The headlight panels and inner glitch are different but if your skimping they can be chopped.

Yours is WR blue?

What's the condition of your front end? Might be buying a WR Blue hawk and would want do to the exact opposite so may be able to swap most parts with you
