Turning your Premium into a Limited
So I've convinced a friend of mine to buy a BRZ as well and we drove 3 hours to check one out, man, all I really care about is the gauges in the limited.
How can I get these in my premium!? http://www.ft86club.com/forums/attac...3&d=1360349867 |
Step 1: Go to Subaru dealer
Step 2: trade your BRZ Premium in for a BRZ Limited, hopefully at minimal loss of car's original value Step 3: ??? Step 4: Profit!!! Erm, I mean, Enjoy!!! Unless someone can prove otherwise, (from what I've read so far) it would be a major PITA and major expense to get all of the components swapped into a car without dual zone automatic climate control. The panel alone (without hinting as to whether or not it even comes with everything you need) is over $500 from Subaru. Unless you can find a wrecked Limited to swap everything out of, of course... |
Those aren't gauges...they're HVAC.
1. Sell car 2. Buy Limited. |
Sign up for VIP, sell car, buy a limited.

Yeah, it was definitely one of the selling points. Amazing how much cheaper the premium knobs can make the interior look.
|
Japanparts.com has it for $389.88. Not sure if that's all you need though. Here is the link http://www.japanparts.com/db/partsli...maker=&VOLKEY=

but the keyless entry!! lol

Like other's have said, those aren't gauges, they are automatic/dual zone HVAC controls. Out of the 25+ cars we've owned, my wife's Fusion is the first one with dual-zone HVAC controls. About only time we use it on is on really long trips (10+ hours). I'm actually glad my limited doesn't have it, and wouldn't want it even if it was a no cost option.
|
Starting to wonder if the premiums will become a rarity.. maybe the collectible car? I don't know the numbers but the limited must be selling alot more than the premium..
|
Its probably cheaper to buy a limited and sell or trade all the parts excepts for center console. I have keyless on one of my car and other one doesnt. And sometimes it confuses the shit out of me, im just so used to using key.
|
It seems like far more work then what it's worth. I had it with a couple of my other Subaru's and I didn't really use it. I like my manual setup more then my wife's automatic setup too for some odd reason.

I really dislike the Toyota design of the area...really hated Toyota's car I think it's the reason why most of the top toyota selling car has problem. poor subaru tho use to be so nice! but now with a lemon car. 2-3 years 2 major recall for toyota.!!! and it's pretty life threatening problems. hopefully brz doesn't have those!!
|
I like the auto climate we have.... But the dual zones have come in handy. Never thought I would use it, but my wife and my sister like it warmer than I do. I don't use the heated seats, but they do when they ride with me.
As for converting... Seems too much trouble to do a complete swap, but just the HVAC may be doable. Might be better to invest money elsewhere though.... |
