Couple questions, and all about interior!
Posted: Tue Jan 15, 2013 4:00 pm
What's up guys? I recently bought a 93 legacy sw and I have a couple questions regarding the interior and roof rack.
First off: the rear passenger side seat has a broken pull latch/switch (whatever you want to call it) and i'm unable to put it down, is there a way to fix this without ripping the seat open? I tried to use a flat head to push the mechanism up but no luck, it's in a very tight spot, and the problem is that the metal wire inside the seat that would pull up the mechanism is missing. Anyone care to shine some light on this?
Second thing: I had some 6.5 inch jvc 2 way speakers left over from my last project car and I decided to throw them on the leggy, the rear speakers went in like a dream, as for the fronts, I didn't want to drill any holes on the door itself so what I did was separate the oem speaker from it's original base and screwed it down kind of like a plate to hold the new speakers in place (if you think that's too ghetto trust me i've seen worse) I tried looking on ebay to see if there would be any custom mounts that would bolt right up but no luck, I assume most of you have resolved this one way or another, so how did you?
Third: dash kit, all I found was a single din dash kit in a catalogue from an auto sound shop, they said it would be impossible to get a double din face plate bezel thing (or whatever the proper name is, you know what i'm talking about) that bolts right behind the cup holder and on the ashtray track. Temporarily I just went and broke certain parts off so the head unit would fit through but I can't stand the way it looks, what have you guys done about this?
And last! Roof racks, my roof is plain, I don't even have tracks or anything just an average joe plain roof, how would I go about installing a roof rack on this baby? I work at autozone and I started searching in the system and all I could find were the ones that pretty much clamp to the sides of the roof, but I feel skeptical about it. I still haven't had a chance to swing by a big bicycle shop, but my guess is that they wouldn't know much, hence I ask you guys.
New to this forum and subaru so don't flame me too much please lol. Cheers
