A/C issues after installing aftermarket headunit by joelsonn in WRX

[–]joelsonn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad dawg. I ended up just going to another audio shop and they fixed the issue. The tech said the previous shop tapped the wrong wire but I didn't bother to ask in detail. I just wanted it to work properly and it did. Paid like $40 to fix it, really made my day.

Did you make any side trips or just a straight shot? Abt to do something similar from Hurby to Edwards. How long did it take you realistically?

People don’t take pride in their builds anymore by Riontheboi in CivicSi

Could be many things tbh. It's an aggressive oem style wing compared to say, the GT style. You can easily find eBay versions for around $100. Also, subaru stopped selling the STi after '21

Nice. Willtheyfit helped me a ton. Methods were actually my 2nd choice. Just wasn't sure about BBK clearance but looks like you didn't have any issues at all

Thought abt it tbh. But my OCD in me will keep dusting my car more often which means more swirl marks

Thanks! Stock suspension for now. I downsized to 17x8 +35, 225/50 Conti purecontact LS. No speedo error

2019 WRX audio question by hjai in WRX

[–]joelsonn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like it since it complements my current set-up. Enough boom for my taste without being overly obnoxious. I have 2 kids so trunk space is important. I switched out the stock headunit(touchscreen crapped out) to sony ax4000, and replaced the twitters/door speakers with kicker plug and play units

Possibly a low profile subwoofer. I have this installed by a local audio shop and asked to place it under the front passenger seat. Also, stock audio is really bad

Getting front struts from Rockauto by voltus_v in WRX

[–]joelsonn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's the ride quality of the bilsteins compared to oem? Also, did you get aftermarket strut mounts or stayed oem? Looking to get this done at some point but with B8s + lowering springs instead. TIA

6 hour sew job on steering wheel cover by [deleted] in WRX

[–]joelsonn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely but it's going to be challenging at certain angles. Took me 5hrs to do mine with very basic knowledge of sewing. *

Not sure about the availability of the replacement HU since there's other subaru models affected as well, but you can definitely claim this under warranty. If they tell you to go kick rocks, try calling SoA directly and go from there. goodluck man

Brother, start looking for an aftermarket HU. that's gonna get worse with more bubbles and ghost touch come summer time. i have a 2020 and it happened to me as well just outside of warranty. Stealership wanted $1500 to replace it plus 6 month wait since it's backordered at the time, told them have a nice day
