DoctorDaveLGT Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 @SoobyDoobyDoo Here's a visual for reference. I can't remember where exactly off the top of my head but they tap in so they also illuminate with your courtesy lights when you open the doors. @Fenrir1 The LED bulbs can be changed without soldering if you're interested in changing up the color. I'm doing red on my set to match the rest of the interior. Always found it funky that they did did the red and blue interior light combo. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gonna get a red set as backup for when these go out. Its actually blue and soft white colors which is interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoobyDoobyDoo Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Thanks for the info @Fenrir1 and @DoctorDaveLGT! I was wondering about that myself…I thought about swapping for red or even just natural/white. Good to know these can be swapped without soldering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xt2005bonbon Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Are your seat covers still original? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoobyDoobyDoo Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Uh….yeah. Might be swapping those. I think it’s not as clear since that photo was taken when it was still light out, but that spread seems thin. I’m sure you could swap the bulbs for more light spread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorDaveLGT Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I don't think the position for the fronts is a bad idea. Would imagine that would lead to less wear/tear and accidental kicks from both driver and passenger compared to dead center. The rears I would definitely prefer the lower B pillar vs. where you have them for that same reasoning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorDaveLGT Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Alright, have to report back with a correction. I was misinformed on the footwell lights. The blue bulbs are soldered in and the white incandescent bulbs are the ones that can be easily replaced. Got a little hands on with it at the shop. Putting in the red LEDs makes an interesting light but I may cut the blue bulb connector to just run white lights only or maybe work up the muster to try and solder in a different color bulb, but that's not a priority at the moment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoobyDoobyDoo Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Are the housings blue? They kinda look blue from the pics the way the light is going through them. Either way, I’ll have to fool around with them when they come in. Appreciate the info from both of you! This is good stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenrir1 Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 (edited) I waited over a friggin year for this due to vendor saying it kept getting pushed back and forgot about it to they dont know when its coming but since i didnt mind waiting, i kept my order and they proceeded with it. Today, it finally came. This was inspired by gears&gasoline Ben's evo9, when i saw he had one on, i went searching to see if they made it for the legacy and voila they did.. i will probably put this on whenever i feel like it or when i swap the front end to the jdm bumper. An example of what it will look like with it on, unfortunately i couldnt find one without the beam in the way. Edited March 5 by Fenrir1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenrir1 Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 (edited) Got the sti flexible lower arm bar that goes underneath the car and got the jdm tail lids as well. I think i like em and might stick them on once i get them paint matched. What do yall think? Edited March 13 by Fenrir1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorDaveLGT Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Agree with @Febreze Mee, never liked these. Although I will say the combo of the titanium silver and your cleared tails...I don't hate the rears as much as I typically do. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apalileo Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 @Fenrir1 what is the purpose of the Cusco front bar? Is it somehow attached to the chassis differently from the crash beam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infosecdad Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I think that bar links together the front control arms to try to stiffen the front end a bit. There are a couple of variants of that idea, I have a different STi bar in that location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
