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.

It's really not that bad when you consider how much better it is and how much longer it will last. Most OEM ballasts rarely die. OEM bulbs last upto twice as long and carry their color and lumens level much longer. With OEM things just work 99% of the time, no shimming no fiddling, no worrying if the lights are going to work every time.
