My '04 WRX...some new toys

Civ2Sub311 · 10-07-2009, 03:59 PM

I will add more exterior pics after I get my Evo2 this weekend (just did debadging, STi splitters, grille pillar delete), but I wanted to post up some pics of my new STi 5-speed shift knob and silver DIN radio pocket that I installed recently. I suggest anyone go out and buy both of these if applicable! No complaints about any of them...

STi shift knob - freakin' love it. It's heavy and quality is superb (albeit expensive). And the STi logo is pink, not red:

Silver DIN radio pocket - having to drill holes in the CD player bracket was a PITA, but it was worth it. Very convenient!:

Will update again soon!

I installed the din pocket on my friend 2.5i, it wasn't that bad. Double and triple checking always makes things move way smoother.

I like the shift knob! How much?

Yeah the pocket wasn't really that bad except that my drill bits were crap and it took forever to get all 4 holes big enough (got titanium coated bits today because of that lol).

The shift knob is from Subarugenuineparts.com - Impreza "STi" 5 Speed Shift Knob MT and unfortunately was about $135, but I've had my eye in it since before i got a WRX so I knew I was going to buy it eventually lol.

Oh and now that I think a little more, the only complaint I do have about the pocket is that it is slightly lighter in color than the stock WRX silver trim, but it's not bad.
