I just noticed there seems to be a fog light switch on the GT. Anyone know what it does? Does it turn the DRL's to fog lights, or is it for the rear triangle?

JiB · 08-09-2012, 09:07 PM

lol, maybe i should wash the car and go over it with a fine tooth comb to see if there is any more cool things i havnt noticed!
It feels like im driving a new car again with the change in the steering, it feels strange.

So, going to the World time attack @ eastern creek tomorrow

looking forward to seeing some 86 goodies

on the 'ring' of the headlights on/off stick, one click up is front foggies, and rotate further to toggle the rear 'triangle' on/off

The GT only has a single switch on the ring, so it must be fort he rear triangle. I'll have a look when I get home.

Same on the GTS - the 'rotate further' stage isn't an actual switch its just a toggle, just rotate the ring up as far clockwise as possible, and watch for another light come up on your cluster - should be the rear foggies...

Do you recon the Subaru head unit is better than the Toyota one on the GT?

I like the way it looks slightly better - even if it still very oldschool!

JiB · 08-09-2012, 10:55 PM

it works pretty well. just a head unit tho. nothing special

Gir · 08-09-2012, 11:25 PM

I really like the standard head unit. Look suits the GT really well. Just sounds terrible compared to the system in my Legend

JiB · 08-09-2012, 11:51 PM

yeah, the sound is rubbish. speakers will probably get upgraded in the future, but that is pretty low down my list

Just checked it. GT only has one toggle, that lights up the triangle foggy at the rear.

I saw some where on this forum where they converted the rear triangle fog light to act both as the rear fog light and in sync with the brake light which is pretty cool. @WTF86 comes to mind doing such a mod.. but may have been the yanks..

It's nice to hear about a fellow GT owner!...and I'm sitting in my car right as we speak and I only just realised aswell that the rear triangle lives!!! I feel like a bit of a noob now lol

JiB · 08-10-2012, 08:53 AM
