  1. Hey guys, please forgive me if this is a repost. I came across this thread when reserarching how to replace my CV axle and wanted to add where I found replacement shafts for cheap. Can be ordered from O'Reilly Auto Parts (or picked up if you have one local) in the folllowing: (my specifics were for a MY06 Legacy) 2.5i, LGT, spec.B -- Front NEW: PN SB8047 $74.99, reman: PN 60-7355 $64.99, rear reman: PN 60-7372 $89.99 all with limited lifetime warranty. MUCH cheaper than OEM and from a professional mechanic friend of mine, very good parts. He said in fact that these parts were probably made in the same place that makes the OEM ones. And at these prices, it doesn't make sense AT ALL to try and rebuild a busted boot. Just for your information though, there is a list of 47 compatible vehicles that match that CV shaft... so it seems to be a widely available shaft for subys. Again, sorry if this is a repost, I didn't read all 24 pages, but this write up is invaluable to this project and I want to thank the OP for his contribution. I look forward to fixing my car and cleaning up the grease off my downpipe to get rid of the smoking and burning smell.
  2. Well, I don't know how it is for you guys, but in the GT model, the instrument display is a "black out" style. Without illumination, you coulnd't see how fast you were going or how much gas you had.
  3. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! These things suck. You will NOT notice any appreciable difference in your headlights. Save your money, they are a scam. I paid $40 for a pair of H7s from Wally World and installed one. Side by side, you can't even tell the difference. Same yellow halogen light. Trust me, you will be sorry you got them. Matt edit: forgot to mention, they burn out fast as crap and Sylvania admits that they don't expect them to last longer than a year. Get regular bulbs, or pony up and get RPM's HID kit.
  4. Well, think about it. DRL's are supposed to be so that other drivers can see you. Well, as we all know, the LGT has projection lamps. This makes it pretty ineffective to have low level DRL's. If they can't see you coming at them, then that's their insurance company's problem. DRL + Projection style headlight = pointless
