Pointless changing the stereo the speakers are f**kin shite aswell, all you'll get is a better headunit to the same shite speakers !

I changed my head unit for this one:
Was about £300 at the time, got a free iso connector with it. I went away from flashy screens/dvd, etc and went for pure sound quality etc - this one had very good reviews. But as soon as you plug it in you realise how crap the speakers are. I spend a further £1000 on speakers after. Sounds great now. BUt you need new speakers. I'd actually go as far as saying stick with the head unit and get new speakers if you're on a tight budget.
Kinda get the idea from these pics of mine, Kenwood Touch screen DVD:
Admittedly they're not the best Going round corners just got a whole lot faster...
I do love the guages...
Am I right in thinking that there was an option to have subaru guages in the same place... like an added extra?

Here are the ones in my car:
DEFI's 1 Subaru 0
The WR1 be safe in the knowledge that, short of strapping yourself to an Acme rocket, there's no quicker way to get from A to B.
I like them both to be honest. The Subaru one's are subtle and blend in perfectly with the rest of the dash which I like. The defi's are almost at the other extreme being fairly brash and in your face- I like that as well
I think prefer the way the subaru ones blend in - does anyone know if these ever turn up second-hand or can you still buy them new?
DEFI's match the standard instrument cluster a little better too IMVHO athough a little less discreet than the Subaru ones of course

I have to agree with this!! UK TURBO...SOLD

i have a set in my garage Boost/Temp/oil presure just had defis fitted so am open to an offer Regs
Geoff
yes they was in the car when i bought it Regs
Geoff
Azyman if your selling some defis I've been after some for a while. Let me know what you want for them via pm. I'm on holiday until 24th December so will get online when I can to check pm's
Cheers Mega
The Lamco / Subaru cluster and surround are fairly easy and cheap to obtain, its the Lamco connection switches, Lamco Boost T-piece restrictor and Lamco Oil pressure switch that are rare, originally the full Kit would have set you back £1600 as an upgrade when new complete Love the stereo upgrades BTW
Azyman...
Do you have the above parts? Might consider taking it off your hands if you're willing. I actually have a Lamco boost gauge already installed, will this just fit into the cluster? Or does it need to be a different gauge?
hi mate i have the lot it was all removed by RCM when i had all the defis done will get some pictures up in the next couple of days
as far as i know it is all there as i would not of thought they would leave stuff in the car that was not supposed to be there open to a reasonable offer Regs
Geoff
Is yours the same as this...
