Klooless69 Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 does anyone know how much it would be to put the 2009 legacy sound system into a 2008 legacy? my wife got the 09 and i have the 08 and what a difference with the Harmin Karden with my 08 i also bought the sub and that doesnt do any justice
Prime Power Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I would like to know too for my 07. Maybe king of parts could do a great deal.
MiniStiGuy Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I have been meaning to stop by a dealership and listen to the 09 system but keep forgetting. Next oil change I'll have to take a listen. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro
dammitjim Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 FWIW the car HK system I had was not that great. Not a Subaru but I doubt I'd pay for that again.

movadovzo Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 got the 2009..the hk systems is actually not bad..i was impressed. when i had my 2005 sti, the dealer add the upgraded system (tweets and a sub under the passenger seat). maybe from factory...but not that great. the hk systems is mos def.
SuperCleanLGT Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 You would be better buying aftermarket.
Backlash Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 as far as cost goes, yeah i'd say it will cost too much. you could go down to the local Cartoys (or equivalent) and get something better for the same price. and probably still keep the factory head unit.

Try must keep the same head unit if you have a GT. Unfortunately divorcing the A/C controls is not that easy.... and I think the one person on here that did it, doesn't anymore I too would be at least interested to see how much the HK Amp and Sub are.... especially if they are direct plugins, IMO it's worth a little more to get a factory designed and fit option.... I understand others prefer aftermarket... to each their own
Backlash Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 IMO it's worth a little more to get a factory designed and fit option.... I understand others prefer aftermarket... to each their own I used to be the guy: first thing to do in a new car, $1000+ stereo system now: leave it stock, but maybe upgrade the speakers. a few years back, i'm in my office at 3am. i had the lights off playing a game and i hear something outside. idiot punk kid breaking into my blazer... to steal a cheap ass $79 walmart radio I ran outside with my .45 in hand... he broke my window and had half my dash ripped apart yanking the radio out. thats the last aftermarket install i will do. i'll stay stock and keep the drug addict thieves out of my vehicles. 2nd time one of my vehicles have been broken into. it just pisses me off that these thieves can't learn to break into a car without breaking glass... and use a damn crowbar to pull a stereo out. sure it's quick, but it makes unnecessary noise. seeing the HK system being stock in a LGT, just made me decide to get the 2009 instead of a leftover 2008. Maybe i'm getting older, but a stock stereo just seems more appealing to me anymore.
