Do you get cupholders if you have that big clock in the center of the dash? I want the clock but at the same time I don't want to lose my cupholders.

No, I don't have cupholders, and I've never seen cupholders.

I liked the 92 a lot.

How do you get all the great Subie rims?? I spotted BC Turbo wheels, BP LGT rims, and Impreza RS rims too!!

OMG! I have the same clock that I got imported from the UK and I need wiring diagrams. do you happen to know what the wiring on the back of that clock is? It's definitely the same unit!

sorry to jack the thread, can you PM me Matthijs?

I can PM you, but i don't have an answer. I have never detached the console, and my Haynes book doesn't support the clock. I can try to ask this on our Dutch Subaru Forum

Mark, make new thread about this and I'll try to find it :)

I don't know , we just have a lot of wheels in the Netherlands :)
Especially the Impreza RS- wheels ( we call them GTT's) are very easily to get and relativily cheap.

BTW I don't know wich wheel you mean by BP Legacy GT rims, I think you are mistaken by the Mangel Amazons (see previous page)

Really nice car Matthijs!


We never had Cupholders in europe. It's a shame that you have to lose the clock when you want to install cupholders :(

And those sideskirts are strange, they came with a front and rear bumperlip, but this ones seem to be different :? I do like them though :shock:

With lots of help of SP-Boxer and SubOnno, we've done some work on switching the struts and wheels.
