Cheers for the reply , do you know for sure they will fit straight on a 2005 wrx ? Ive been reading up about people having trouble with this year wrx 2.0 , people saying kyb dont do a direct fit because of some deal with subaru ?

Isn't Matty at Pole Position breaking a Blobeye at the moment that had a set or rear KYB's on?

I went for a set of KYB replacements about 12 months ago. Fitted straight on with no issues at all.
