Default Looking for someone with a 02-04 WRX in the Lowell area

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to see how well the '05-'07 STiPad bezel fits in older generation ('02-'04) WRX/STi's.

Basically trying to see how this:

fits in this:


I'm in Westford, near Lowell. If someone's around and willing to help, I'd really appreciate it.

Just from the looks of the pictures, I'm assuming it doesn't fit at all. The bottom corners don't line up at all, and I know from experience that they are completely different heights.

I've never seen that bezel before. pretty cool.

Yeah I know it won't be a direct fit, but I'm looking to see how much modification needs to be done. If the tabs line up inside, I've got hope. If they don't, it's just not worth it.

The bezel is from my STiPad project.

The dash was changed in 05 to the one you did the STiPad bezel for. The components dont match up and youd have to put the 05+ dash into the 02-04 model to make it fit.

Yes yes, I know this. What I'm trying to see is, short of doing the full swap, how much work is needed to modify this to fit the '04s?

I got a few PMs and will be in touch. Thanks guys!

Yeah it's what I do. I posted about it in the Audio/Video section when it was just a concept. It got a lot of response (not all good, lol!) and enough people said they were interested in it where I went down this path. Formed a company, prototyped it (4 times), and have had molds built. Full-blown production starts soon.

I'm trying to get it in the hands of many resellers, a lot of them are vendors on here. Of course, I sell it directly as well, but I don't expect a lot of traffic when all I do is 1 thing (so far). I'm working on a 2008+ model, but things are slightly on hold as my day job is taking up a lot of time.

If you know someone with an iPad and a '05-'07, definitely point this out to them. It absolutely rocks to have an iPad as your in-car entertainment solution. Jailbreak it and you've got voice control, great gesture control, not to mention the rest of the goodies associated with an iPad (OBD-II interface w the car, Pandora, etc etc) and you don't even lose your radio, really. I use TuneIn radio and it has ALL of my local stations (boston area) not to mention every other market out there. I was driving and trying to listen to the Pats when WEEI stopped broadcasting for some reason. Hit a few buttons, I'm listening on a CT based station.

Wow that is a great idea, I hope it all works out for you. It seems like a big undertaking but a perfect idea, especially with the rise of the iPad. I will keep an eye out for people at college and let them know about you.
