bryanf Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 and a quick update-- I drove to the mountains this weekend and it was unseasonably hot (92deg-ish) in the central valley. The A/C worked just fine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckman Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Here is what I ordered according to the invoice: 2005 - 2005 Subaru A/C Condenser Price: $149.40 Qty: 1 Part #: P40414M Bryan Sweet thanks! They seemed to stop carrying that part. They do have the P40414P which i assume is parallel, and not yours, which i'm taking is the multi-flow type. Hmm off to research what other brands work. Thanks! **Edit: turns out our condenser is parallel after all incase anyone was wondering** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I just installed gutter guard down on the bottom. http://i32.tinypic.com/2nbhvf5.jpg catches cigarettes and all kinds of crap. I have to clean it out every wash because its picked up so much crap... Looks nice! Can you give some more details? I guess that's something available in a hardware store. How did you mount it to the bumper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I'll take the bumper off today and take some pics. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I'll take the bumper off today and take some pics. That would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy05 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 That would be awesome. Looks like gutter guard from Homedepot or somewhere and I see blue zip-ties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Ok so here's some pics. Note you'll want black zip-ties instead of the pretty color'd ones I have if your picky about stuff. Materials Gutter Guard from home-depot 8 zipties atleast http://i27.tinypic.com/2w74ft3.jpg http://i25.tinypic.com/ae2lxt.jpg http://i32.tinypic.com/1zwccrc.jpg http://i31.tinypic.com/aytvrp.jpg It doesn't cover the top but you don't need to worry because nothing will swoop inside. Rocks aren't ninja's! http://i32.tinypic.com/f6xwy.jpg looking straight at the bumper http://i28.tinypic.com/2eztda9.jpg Notice that it overhangs over the top plenty. http://i28.tinypic.com/10paxr5.jpg you can see my pretty zip-ties but only if you were to bend down and look directly into the bottom. http://i29.tinypic.com/29lo6y9.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/1182kxi.jpg OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 its just the same home depot grill guard that I used on the grill. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 What would be an alternative to zip ties... epoxy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 umm thats up to you to be creative. I just did it because I had the bumper off anyways one time so I figured why not put something down there while its off. I got bored today so I made a video of me taking the bumper off... its not the best quality but it just shows you can get it off in under 3 minutes while taking your time. http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=343hr10&s=3 OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
