  1. The dull lightning occured before anything was added to the car... It did have a stock boost gauge which has now been removed..

    There has been 3 gauges added but they dont run off the light switch.. they come on when the car is turned on.. Could that be the problem ?

  2. Ok to some of you this is probably a noobie question... but

    I've looked on google and in the search on here and failed to find anything (maybe im using the wrong search terms)

    Im wanting to know if a subaru wrx 2000 ver6 has a dimmer switch for the dash lights ? i cant find one anywhere..

    The lights in the dash are barely visable even with the stock bulbs / aftermarket bulbs

    and was wondering if it had a dimmer switch to try and maybe brighten them ?

    no bonnet scoop and fmic it

    /quote]

    +1

    Thats what ive done, already have the new bonnet without any scoops or vents on it,

    Just need to get it painted and shes all go..

  4. one off trademe, when i got it, it looked like a complete knockoff! the holes for the gauges were cut pretty cheaply,

    One side had more of a slope on the bottom than the other lol.. that was the main reason for not fitting, oh

    and it being too wide.. like just by a few mm, but enough for it not to fit at all... if these 2 options i have in mind

    dont work, im gonna have to try and find another lid for it as the original one was smashed :(

  5. 5"1' wowsers :o

    Did some bondoing hoping to create a mastershitpiece for my gauges to be housed in..

    I have no idea how its going to turn out.. i may not even use it.. as i brought one of those

    defi gauge pods, which was apparently for my model, tho it didnt fit at all.. so has been hacked to pieces... to

    fit, but still is too big and sticks out a bit on top of the air vents.. bloody hell lol might end up putting them onto

    the pillar and be done with it, tho i really dont want to put them there :(

  6. Pictures would be great then we could maybe turn it

    into a guide for others to use maybe.. well that's silly if

    the trim isn't actually held on by screws lol, now I have to

    remember where all the screws go I took out! :-[

    I took out the glovebox cos I'm running some gauge wires

    up into the dash where the sunglasses holder is (if that's what you call it)

    Ok (for me) i thought it was going to be a little easier than i thought, but i was wrong... :-[

    Ive searched on CS forums thoroughly... searched the internet etc finding diagrams and

    tutorials on how to take a headunit out of a WRX 04+ but for some reason its completely different for mine lol..

    So to reason why i start this thread, im looking for help or hints on how to get in behind

    the stock headunit to replace with my new Alpine iDA-X305..

    Ive tried alot of things but im guessing theres just something im missing, maybe a couple of screws or something

    i just cant get that dam dash trim off :( Any help for this noobie is muchly appreciated

    Isn't most of the colour in the board, not the bulb condom?

    Exactly! hence why you have to painstakingly (with fine sandpaper) scratch the green film off, if you want any color to show through..

    Ive heard, even if you put blue bulbs in, or even blue condoms, it will show up teal (bluey green) color.. So off with the green film i'd say!
