Found a thread on nasioc about it, but to no avail.... (and bean searching on both for the last couple days with no results)


Any way to mod the passenger seat to drop its height to equal that of the driver's seat at it's lowest setting? ]]> Interior Mods rory_a http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134335278-06-07-passenger-seat-height.html http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134335276-infinity-perfect-6-1-component.html Fri, 03 Sep 2010 22:31:46 GMT anyone install these in their impreza/wrx. just looking to reassure myself when installing them. there 6.5inches round and i already bought the speaker spacers from iaperfrormance. i searched on nasioc and a few people did it with no problem. i just rather get some input from clubwrx. anyone install these in their impreza/wrx. just looking to reassure myself when installing them. there 6.5inches round and i already bought the speaker spacers from iaperfrormance. i searched on nasioc and a few people did it with no problem. i just rather get some input from clubwrx. ]]> Interior Mods silverautorex http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134335276-infinity-perfect-6-1-component.html http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134335240-impreza-51-plate-antenna.html Fri, 03 Sep 2010 10:21:17 GMT Hi my antenna is slightly bent and wont retract, it doesnt upset my signal but looks crappy, are these antennas supposed to retract ? its the one mounted on the a-post, anyone have any ideas on the best place to get one ?

The install was pretty easy. I used a Metra dash kit and wire harness. I also ordered the PTR7 bypass module for the e-brake/foot brake sequence. I don't watch dvds while I drive, but to access other settings and some nav features the car needs to be "parked".

I just removed the bezel around the radio. I didn't have to remove panels from the glove box to make my way over. Install was pretty easy other than cramming all the wires and BT module behind the dash.

The sound has greatly improved, but the speakers need to be replaced. I'll probably swap them with some Kicker QS components later on. I don't plan on doing a subwoofer or amplifier. I may do the mini alpine amp that does 45w per channel and fits behind the dash.

Here are some pics.

BT microphone placement:


The mic placement was tough. I put it at the top of the pillar and roof liner, but there was too much road noise and feedback from the speaker. I tried ontop of the steering column, which was better but still not perfect. I kept my g/f on the phone for about 30 minutes playing with placement until she could not longer hear ambient noise or echo.

The navi interface is fine for me. I rarely will use it. My g/f has an Acura TL with navi and the interface and graphics are very similar. Overall I really like the unit and would recommend it. ]]> Interior Mods amill http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134335057-alpine-iwa-900-install.html http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134334982-hvac-light-red.html Sun, 29 Aug 2010 00:21:12 GMT where can i get the bulb covers to make my HVAC lights red. i cant find them online any where. where can i get the bulb covers to make my HVAC lights red. i cant find them online any where. ]]> Interior Mods 2004wrxkid http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134334982-hvac-light-red.html http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/interior-mods/134334964-2011-wrx-dvd-nav-install.html Sat, 28 Aug 2010 14:10:41 GMT Anybody have any advice on a DVD/Nav install in a 2011 WRX? I don't have much experience in car audio but would like to save a few hundred bucks by doing it myself. I'm pretty mechanical and can usually figure stuff out with a good set of instructions. But I don't want to get the whole thing apart and then realize I bit off more than I could chew.

Crutchfield doesn't have the 2011 WRXs in their "outfit your car" feature. I want to install a Pioneer AVIC-X920BT, Sirius, and the steering wheel control interface. I called and talked to them and they don't know if the audio system is different or not. Anybody have any idea?

Is that a DIY job for a novice or am I better off dishing out the cash for a professional install?

I am curious how this differs from the standard WRX (wiring diagram found here http://www.modifiedlife.com/2003-sub...ation-diagram/).
