Pics of rear passenger area with plastic removed - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hi Guys,
I haven't seen anyone else post these pics yet. We've been pulling our project BRZ apart. I thought these pics may be useful to someone doing interior work or audio parts
on these cars. The rear speakers are uber-easy to remove...two bolts and unclip them. They have fairly puny magnets on them, and i think they weighed something like 1.2 lbs. including the bracket.
FYI...the plastic piece lying above the screwdriver is the B-pillar piece that covers the top seat belt attachment point. That's why it looks out of place in the first pic below.

Have you guys taken apart the dash or center console area yet?

No, and we do not have any plans to do so at this time. Sorry!

Thanks for the photos. Always nice to see what lies beneath the panels.

Lil Abner · 06-07-2012, 08:23 AM

I'll be pulling my center console apart again tonight. Any area you need a picture of?

Draco-REX · 06-07-2012, 08:36 AM

Hmm.. Going to be a PITA to install a Schroth harness.

Which reminds me I should order a pair...

EDIT: Looking at this more I think the Rallye 3 harnesses are best for this rather than the Rallye 4s I usually get.

Not really a specfic area I was just wondering how it's all put together. I'll be installing a new radio and wrapping some of my trim in cf so just wanted to get an idea of how to take it all apart. If you forget to take pics it's cool I'll just figure it out as I go along.

The radio itself comes out very easy. But the climate controls takes some work. It's not hard once you know the order and basic techniques. I'm hoping to post a DIY this weekend of removing those panels to access the climate controls and clock. That should help you.

Yeah I was just wondering so I could get a basic idea of what I have to do. Are you talking about the auto HVAC or the manual?

The manual. Getting to that panel requires taking several panels out first. I'm guessing the auto HVAC would be the same process.

This would be awesome! Are you going to be taking apart the gauge cluster as well?

Not, just the HVAC controls. I actually already took them apart a few days ago, but will be doing it again to change some stuff. I'll post what I did this weekend.

Longhorn248 · 06-08-2012, 06:28 PM

Cool, I'll keep an eye out in the DIY section then.

Ok well i'm interested to see what the steps are. I'm hoping it's similar to the 2013 imprezas and you just have to unhook the cables for the vents and temp then just pull it out.
