Because Box told me to, I decided to make a project thread for my new daily, an 07 Impreza hatch. It's pretty much a stock base model with cruise, and unfortunately automatic, but I got it for a good price and it's in really good shape so I'm happy with it. Don't plan to do much with it other than regular maintenance and a new radio which I already have. I'll probably throw on a set of mudflaps before the winter to preserve it a little better.
Here's what it looked like when I picked it up...a little dirty lol. ![]() After a quick wash and rain

Glad that site worked out. Also curious as to how long the HID kit will last haha.
How's the cutoff while driving? Just as good as an HID projector? -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

I don't really have anything to compare them to but the cutoff doesn't seem too bad. Took the car up to the lake last weekend and didn't seem to blind anybody And I'm curious too. When I got them my friend said he bought the same kit for his civic years ago and one ballast and one bulb died within a month lmao so let's hope for the best. -------------------- 2007 Impreza 2.5i - Daily

I opted for their ballasts which I probably shouldn't have lol. The kit came with a relay though which in not using but I might add it in. -------------------- 2007 Impreza 2.5i - Daily
