Well, I think I broke the record for longest-ever install today, no thanks to a stripped screw on one of the metal radio mount-brackets. Holy Sh*t, those screws are buttery-soft.

This particular screw had a grounding bracket on it from the dealership-installed subwoofer and the installation guy must have wrenched it down TIGHT. I tried everything and finallly went to the local hardware store and picked up a screw extractor drill bit...did the job.

My setup: I ran my stereo to rca patch cable from the jazzy around the shifter, under the cup holder, through a coupler and into an rca to stereo patch cable which I brought up through a hole drilled adjacent to the cig lighter in the storage cubby. I'm using the Belkin car kit and noticed with the Sh*t-Shack brand GLI I had issues with sound cutting in-and-out so I ditched the GLI and problem solved. No noticable issues with background noise (very slight but not noticable).

Subaru can learn a lot from "pioneers" like Jazzy. Great job!!

two thumbs-up for hog-zaust Stage One

And, I love the new Cusco Swaybars

Thanks Hog

I'm totally doing the hog-haust this weekend when I install my F/RSBs. I think I'll go Stage 1 to start.

It'll be like a whole different car!!

Like the first day I brought her home (sniff sniff).
