Edvig Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Since CC-B completely dropped the ball on getting European parts for me, I contacted Cheam Motors, [url]www.cheammotors.co.uk[/url], in England last week. Their super store website doesn't have any Legacy parts on it but I emailed them the part numbers that I pulled from the subaru.co.uk site and then called them with my CC #. One week late I received my parts. I picked up a set of mudflaps, rain visors and an arm rest extension that gives you an additional storage compartment (instead of the stupid folding one that we get here)!

LandShark Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 OK Edvig, Obvious questions: 1. Can you list the part no.s and pricing you paid (itemize shipping costs)? 2. Can you post pics of the "Euro" arm rest extension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edvig Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 Arm rest extension or the Dual Console Box as they call it.

It cost 55 Pounds to overnight all my parts to NY from England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattz Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Edvig, Can you provide more details about the armrest? How about some real life pics? Also, does it extend up and out like the USDM one? That pic from the UK site makes it look light gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edvig Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 It's similar to the one that I have in my WRX. It's a storage cubby with a hinge on it. I received it today so there are no pics yet. I'll post pics as soon as I have a chance to put it in the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edvig Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 With due respect to the vendors of this site (except for CC-B, who has been completely unhelpful), I'd rather not post the prices that I paid for the parts. I'm sure if you send an email to Cheam Motors, they will get back to you with a price. King of Imports is also carrying them as well. I'll have pics of the parts as soon as I can get them on the car :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim1969 Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 The armrest looks like a light grey. Did you swap the lid with your USDM model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edvig Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 jim1969: the dual console box/arm rest is designed to use the stock lid. Unilat: for some reason the Cheam site doesn't have any Legacy parts on the store site. The 05 Legacy accessory parts are listed on the Subaru UK site as "Legacy 2004MY onward" The new body style came out as a 2004 model in the UK.

Does the EDM one lift up and outward like the USDM one? Is the only difference that the EDM one provides for extra storage? Can't wait to see some pics... Thanks!

Edvig Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 The EDM one doesn't fold up and down like the USDM does. It comes as a storage box and uses the factory cover. It sits on top of the center console and screws into the factory cover/cushion location. I have pretty much the same deal in my WRX, except at the time they called it the armrest extension. The Subaru UK site calls it the dual console box. Pics will be up shortly. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennjay Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Does the EDM move the rest forward as well as elevating it? If it does not, I think we might be better off with the USDM extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
