  1. I spend quite a bit of time in the bay area for work. Going to be down here for 3 weeks this time so I decided to drive down (830 miles in 12 hours... thank goodness for my Escort!). Have noticed I get a lot more waves from subies (all WRX's so far)down here than in WA. IMO people down here are just more friendly in general. So if you see a QSM Spec. B w/ WA plates... Howdy!

     

    Hope to see you around. From my experiance, the people are about the same in friendlyness. May be a santa cruz thing, where all the green is, but get about the same amount of waves.

     

    But I really miss the PNW at times and relesh every moment I get to go back.

  2. Spotted silver LGT with aftermarket grille and sti-badge, lowered, wheels, exhaust, turning left onto Hanover from Page Mill ~lunchtime.

     

    yay, my first spotting :D

     

    The grill is a custom one that I made and had the STI badge so I put it on. Not lowered, currently on OEM suspension. Will be putting USDM 08 SpecB suspension on this summer. OEM wheels; use them in the winter, have 08 SpecB wheels I use in the summer and they should be going back on in about a month or 2. Hawgzaust FTW :p.

     

     

    Your OBXT looks awsome.

  3. Keep meaning to post this:

    - Have seen a white LGT wagon with STI stickers on the sides outside Plantronics and Costco in Sana Cruz. Saw you last night. Was right behind you.

     

    - Have seen a Red LGT Sedan with black wheels, debadged parked ouside a house on Highway 9 across from the orthadox chruch in Ben Lomend.

     

    Both great looking cars ;)

  4. The Stock 05/06 HU were not designed for any type of input outside of the HU it self. So they just don't work.

     

    The i-pod kit uses the the Sat input on the HU instead of the aux input. The closest thing out there would be a CD-Changer interface. So you get control, power, and level audio from the i-pod to the HU though the ipod interface, not the 3.5mm headphone jack (which is not line level).

     

    The Aux-in is only a 3.5mm jack (stock) so you would only get line non-level input from that.

     

    If you only want the i-pod, just get the 07HU + the i-pod kit and you are all set.

  5. I am not clear which parts exactly to get the Aux-in to work, but the car is not wired for it, so you would need to make some connections from the HU to the Aux in that you decide to use. I jsut went to radio shack and made a connector for the HU and wires to go to a 3.5mm jack that I mounted into the cup holder area. It cost me ~$15 for the parts and took me about an hour to make the cables and install them. This will not likely be what the dealiership would be willing to do for you. The iPod kit is plug-n-play so that is self explanitory.
  6. No soldering to my knowledge unless you want to get the Aux-in wired up, you may need to solder some wires together. If you only want the I-Pod kit, then you wouldn't need to worry about the aux-in.

     

    And you can try and get the dealership install it, but they would charge you a lot. My dealership would charge me $99/hr and this would likely be a 2hr+ job if you are able to talk them into it. Everything should be plug/n/play so if you take your time, you should be able to figure it out.

  7. I believe that if you got the following you would get what you want:

     

    2007 HU

    I-Pod kit (as long as you don't want XM)

     

    And then you are set.

     

    I have a zune, so there isn't an integration kit for me, but I have the 07 HU in my 06 GT. I have the XM Sat radio and the Zune plugged into the aux in and love this setup.

     

    From what I understand, if you get the I-Pod kit, you would use the sat button to control the i-pod.

  8. ABP 05+ LGT Sedan at a parking lot behind the Santa Cruz PD. Went to see woodies on the warf, had a good time with some friends of ours and when getting back, found that we accidently parked in a private parking lot (with just about everyone else that was parked there).
