It's all good brotha!!! @Bolksey85 - Take the plunge!!! He does great work

Get a set from IDRVSLO. You won't be disappointed, and I've had a few sets of HIDs and TRS is BY FAR the best quality. IDRVSLO/Illuminous Designs FTW!!!

Hmmmm....I'm trying to decide if I should go this route or not. I've got a StopTech BBK, TechnaFit lines and GS MBC brace right now. Plus I only saw one 08 LGT do the swap. Definitely interested to hear how that's working out....

Bump for pics of my install

Car: -2008 Legacy GT Limited 5MT (Bang the link in my sig block!!!) Factory electronics: -All removed, but had the OEM 6 Disc Changer integrated with HVAC (Subaru = t3h fail for that crap) and stock speakers. Parts used: - 07+ JDM Twin HVAC Double Din adapter and JDM hazard switch (JDM part #H6217AG912 from avoJDM Parts) *Color matched to shifter surround at local body shop - SVX.dc adapters - Pioneer AVIC-X930BT Comments: First I want to give a HUGE shoutout to SVX.dc and Dwolson2. This can be a rather daunting undertaking and with the information they've both provided the install has gone much smoother. The biggest issue my friend and I had was finding the time to do everything. Running the cables was a breeze since I removed all the seats. I ran power through the opening right behind the glove box, which was actually a nice clean run. Sound deadening was only applied to the trunk, but I may go back eventually and do the doors. I'm not sure if the controller module is different (Kenwood) in the JDM kit I have, but the HVAC display was the same brightness as all the other items in my car. It also dimmed correctly so I'm wondering if the dimming issue is fixed in the 07+ version. PICS!!! JDM double din (still working out some of the gaps, but this is as good as it's going to get for now) Amp/cap/distro block mount

Lots of good info at http://www.the12volt.com

gb?

Nice!!! What kind of coils? Mine are showing up tomorrow

Look at this thread: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/official-dual-hvac-double-din-jdm-kit-thread-113589.html And then go to http://www.ae64.com and it lays out what harnesses you need.

That would be the one Drew888's Spec.B!

I've seen it in person....sweet Spec.B goodness right there

Agreed. That picture pretty much convinced me to get the same setup

Well I do know several shops in the area (Manassas, VA) were roughly in the same ballpark pricewise so I didn't really question it.

20% is a no-no in VA so I likely got charged more because of that.

Well I ordered the Legacy one, but there wasn't anywhere for me to put the second bolt (the lower one). I didn't have time to mess with it so I'm rolling without at the moment.

I'll post more after I get done with some training I have to attend, but I wanted to get one up to show my progress. Here's what's installed so far: Enkei GTC01 17x7.5 with 225/45/R17 Kuhmo Ecsta ASX Whiteline Front/Rear sway bars with Kartboy endlinks Rallitek Springs (squeaky as hell) ERZ Downpipe Magnaflow Exhaust Blitz Air Filter Kartboy Short Shifter with front/rear bushings Spirit of Xenon HIDs (6000k, 35w) (from SubiMods.com) Cobb AP Stage 2 Map Of course there's the miscellaneous stuff: Momo shift knob Billet aluminum pedals Subaru OEM Dimming rearview w/ compass Redline hood struts (will be installed later) 20% tint Debadged De pinstriped DRLs disabled (foglights inadvertently disabled too) On the to-do list: New struts (probably KYB AGX) Alignment Disable god-awful seatbelt chime (read several DIYs, but haven't decided which way to go about doing it) Heat shield (ordered the SPT one, but it didn't fit....grrrrrrrrr)
