outback_97 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Welcome cyclinboy, glad to have you aboard. If you specified the year of the car you'd have better luck with good responses... the answers for some things will vary depnding on the year. BTW it's Impreza, with one "z" I'm assuming it's an '05... but you know what they say about that RS's first came in coupes and sedans... then 02/03/04 as sedans only... now they're either a wagon or sedan. Confusing, yes. I have info on foglights for 02/03 and speakers for 02/03/04... there's also a good link in another very recent thread about installing a head unit into an '02 RS... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=35952 Also a good site for mods is http://www.scoobymods.com.

cyclinboy Posted May 11, 2005 Author Share Posted May 11, 2005 steve thanks for the reply. i've corrected as suggested, it's a 2005 wagon, and now 1 Z what i would like is a suggestion of a better speaker system [incl tweeter] than the stocks...but i don't need show quality or anything near it... i couldn't find the post on scoobymods, i think the server move goofed things up, so any info on the fog light mod would be cool... btw, can the drl function be deactivated? thanks again. jeffrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outback_97 Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Good choice on the wagon... This link has tons of info on audio stuff: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=170844 Nearly anything that costs more than $5 will be better than the stock speakers, unless they've dramatically improved them since '03. We put in Infinity 6.5's in the front... they're not components but rather two ways. You can find a very detailed set of instructions for speaker install if you follow the link above. Also the forum that that FAQ belongs too is a good place to search for information. Please search before posting there... almost any question you have will have been asked there before about 50 times. My fog light info won't apply to your car... it's only for 02/03 where they had the big fog lights... but just for fun here it is: http://users.sisna.com/ignatius/subaru/mods/fogs/ You may be able to find some aftermarket ones that fit your car... check out Hella for fog or driving lights. Enjoy the RS! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
