Greetings all.

I'm hoping that someone here can possibly help me with some information. I'm trying to get underneath the cup holders console. I have something in there that is rolling about and the sound is frustrating the hell out of me! it sounds like a screw rolling on bare metal every time i accelerate, brake, turn etc etc.

I've found a post on removing the silver trim around the shifter but does anyone know how to remove the full length center console that the cupholder fits into? I'm desperate!

Thanks in advance
B

Could someone either do another HID kit DIY or fix the pics in this one?

D.I.Y. on installation of all of the various spoilers/lips/skirts , because on pro installations screws are crooked , overspray everywhere and the car is thrashed and trashed and also the prices are from another planet.
Has anyone changed the fake cooling vents on the guards into functional cooling vents?

I can make you a video for all of these except the painted calipers if you would like.

Do you or anyone else still need this? I'm quite a pro at it now. Probably takes about 3-4 minutes max. Getting them back in is actually a wee bit harder.


Anyone planning to a DIY for the stainless steel clutch line? If no one else does I may end up having to do it but I am certainly not the best person for this. Not even top 100.

08+ WRX swap will be the same EXCEPT for the portion about swapping bleeders from bottom to top of the caliper (which is only for our cars). You should be able to find one on 3GWRX, NASIOC, ClubWRX, or IWSTI.

Thought the bolt pattern on the rotors were different, i.e not 5x100. I think you need 04 STI fronts and re-drill or buy aftermarket DBA rear rotors with dual pattern.


...and swap the bleeders...
