I managed to get 30 LED bulb in mine, with modification. The thing is almost blinding, but it certainly helps with the night time visibility.

I can't seem to find any other way to change that bulb aside from removing the entire headlight (unscrew it, and replace the bulb the hard way). |

If not, they might not have done it, or it was covered under the 27-point inspection if that was done. All you need to do is bring it in and have them connect their computer to it, and they can tell you whether it's up to date or not. Call ahead though |

I've more or less replaced all halogen bulbs with LEDs and HIDs in my car. eBay seems to be a good place to buy the bulbs.

Voice commands seem to have done the trick. Thanks all!

While we are on the topic of bluetooth, is there a way to get the head unit to display caller names as opposed to the phone number? This is the HU I have.

PKL, on the LED swap did you require a resistor for the turn signal bulbs? Otherwise all other LED bulbs worked fine?

Does anyone else find themself yelling while using hands free? After a conversation im out of breath from how much effort is involved yelling for an entire conversation. lol if i dont speak up loud enough the people on the line say they cant hear me.
is it a crappy mic? or is it just common for hands free in general? |

No experience with the BT mic on the car but I find myself yelling and giving the handful Bird to people that cut me off (from behind the tint...lol). Those stock horns are horrible.

Out of curiousity I copared the 12 to the 13 Impreza.
These facts arent correct are they? The 13's have better gas millage? Whats the deal with the 265hp? WRX/STI? Comparison by jmaiden91184, on Flickr |

19/25 seems to be the WRX fuel economy numbers. Fuel economy isnt any different between '12/'13 Impreza models (save the XV)

WRX wheels
For the folks putting 16" WRX wheels on their 2012+ Imprezas, how do you figure the 1/2" narrower wheels? Most of the WRX oem feet are 16"x6.5" while the sport alloys are 17x7" wide.
It'd be nice to have more tire in the winter and for crappy fire roads, but giving up a combined 2" of contact on the road seems like a deal breaker. |
