that scoop is a big waste of money if you ask me. 245 brand new... the 04-05 sti scoop is 130$ brand new and bigger, with more material. makes no sense to me. will be the last thing i buy for my car unless it is given to me...

Picked these up on craigslist friday for 50$
so I went over to vegasjetta's today and we wired up and installed two of my hellas behind my grill. love the look and can't wait to see the visability once it gets dark and I adjust the lights.
At some point I may fabricate a bar that mounts across behind the grill, but you have to work with what you have, so I removed two of the clips that hold the bumper on, and its the perfect size for the mounting bolt on the 500's.
Plan on picking up some nylon spacers slide over the studs to keep it down in the center of the grill, but for now I used the nut and washer that came with the lights to space it down.
mounted in upside down.
The temporary switch that I ran through the fire wall and came out where the stock fog switch should be on any other forester. Soon I will be visiting a junk yard to grab a stock forester fog switch to wire it to so it looks all stock.

Nice thought with the mounting holes! Looks great!
If you ever go on NES, talk with Canonshooter. He built a custom fabbed bar for behind the grill on his Fozzy. It's very well done.

I've seen his thread for that, such a nice bar and they sit perfect behind there. that's my plan for the winter I think. It will make them easier to adjust and everything.
