  1. I like your tupperware route! I actually intended to do that myself based on yours at first but the way I had cut mine didn't quite support it the way yours did. I also have a Bluetooth dongle attached to my aux-in cable that I use with my phone right now but I ran it through the shifter area to the cupholder slot and that way I can pause/play/skip music without having to reach up to the cubby. Must be nice in Vancouver, I can't wait to get mine into my car.
  2. If you are a professional fiberglasser maybe, but I thought about doing it that way and for me at least it wasn't really worth the effort of fiberglass or body filler. The amount of times you have to mark, remove and sand it to get the right fit will takes hours of extra work that will give marginal benefit. After all that work you still have to paint it and you probably won't be able to find a paint match with the other vent bezels which will mean your cubby bezel is going to be a different colour than the rest of your dash, or if you just paint the interior part then the interior part will be a different colour anyway and you might as well have just done what I did. You're better off taking the extra few minutes to dremel the bezel properly and then use some type of precisely cut ABS plastic or other material to fill in the gaps and it will look perfect. Check out the software in that video if you don't like the Timur approach, You get split screen functionality, a lot more customizability and I've been able to get the battery down to 0.2%/hour on deep sleep. That's almost 21 days of staying on without power. It also works with Cyanogen 13.0..
  3. Hey guys I have some solutions for you folks that are having some troubles with this. I made a couple of videos of how I'm doing mine that you might want to check out. They should solve your Timur ROM problems as well as save you a lot of $$$ having to buy the JDM bezel. I originally had started with the Timur's ROM route and was going to buy a JDM bezel but I rethought the whole process and found my own combination of software and made my own bezel. Here's the finished product. The first video covers the software side of things using a combination of Cyanogenmod 13.0 and ElementalX kernel, both of which are free and far more customizable than Timur's ROM. The second video shows how to start with an OEM bezel and turn it into a Nexus 7 holder. I'm still waiting to install it into my car and will report back when it's warm enough to do so. The picture below is the final product of my modified OEM bezel.
  4. So every vehicle is equipped with an auto-dimming mirror connector even if it didn't come from factory with that feature? I have an 05 LGT Limited Wagon, would this have that connector in there already and I'd just need the harness to get the power source? Knowing it's this easy it might be the push I need to go out and get a dashcam.
  5. Winter mode engage! I washed it last week and then undid that work today
  6. Thanks - looks pretty nice but not as nice as the JDM Spec B front in my opinion.. I think I'll wait and save for one of those or a Reiz
  7. I posted this in another thread but didn't get any replies. Does anyone know what bumper this is? http://www.kijiji.ca/v-auto-body-parts/calgary/jdm-subaru-legacy-gt-wrx-wagon-bl5-front-end-nosecut-04-09/1072457966?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true
  8. I don't care about mud I care about protecting the paint on my doors
  9. OEM mudguards don't protect as much and are definitely not $47 for the set.
  10. Why is the downpipe removed during this install? I see it in all the instruction videos
  11. I should also mention these are just generic flaps that cost me $30
  12. Freshly washed with my mudflaps just installed. I think they look great but I might bump the rears up an inch or 2 - looking rather Outbacky like this. I also bought some spats but decided I like this look better. http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=214308&stc=1&d=1439065797
  13. Subscribing. Once I get my mudflaps on I'll throw a picture up
  14. XXR 530 Chromium Black 18x8.75 +33 Falken Ziex ZE950 225/40/18 Stock height No fender roll I know about No rubbing at all These wheels look great but I installed them the day before I put my lip on and it desperately needed the lip or else it looked super high. Now with the lip I think it doesn't need the drop immediately and I can definitely take my time with that one.
