Impreza 2.5i 2006 Single Din Dash Kit

**Shailoche** · 07-30-2007, 06:11 PM

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I can purchase the single din adapter for my Subaru. There is a kit out there that will allow me to install my head unit in place of the clock/airbag monitor. I need to place a 7" LCD in the main double din hole and then place my standard single din Eclipse 5000 in the dash single din spot. That way I get the Eclipse quality audio and still have the LCD in dash for my GPS in car computer.

Isnt it that the impreza is just an ISO-mount where the radio should go?

he's using the normal spot for the display, and wants to install the HU in the space above the vents, where the clock and airbag monitor light goes now:
Right?

I want to use the area circled in the previous post for my standard 1 din head unit. I am using the area where the head unit would normally go for the Carputer and 8" LCD touch screen.

Anyone know where I can get the 1 din mount for that area?

Yeah thats what I gather. But I was under the impression that the OP was wanted to place the single din 7" LCD in place of the factory stereo, which uses ISO-mounts to hold it in place.

Nope, just looking to put my 1 DIN in the upperdash...and then the car computer with touch lcd in the spot where the stock radio goes. So, do you know if there is a 1DIN kit for that spot circled in the post?

Oh, from your original post, I was under the impression that you already knew of the DIN adapter for the clock replacement. Hey, everybody is entiltle to make mistakes now and again. I thought I was wrong once a while back also, but I was mistaken.
So you're saying you've seen this done before? If so, where? I dont believe that is something you can purchase, but something that requires custom modification. Doing something like that is very specific and I don't believe many people would opt for that sort of thing. I wasnt able to find anything when I searched for it.

Actually, most Subaru owners use that spot for their stereo or for extra gauges for their turbo setup. So, I am assuming that there must exist a kit of some sort that allows for a 1DIN stereo or 3 65mm gauges to be mounted there.
Anyone know what I am talking about? I have seen it before...just can't remember where.

Well that answers that. I just did a search on google for impreza gauge pod and I came up with more than an hand full of places that has that. And that works for the 2004+ impreza cars. I saw it on scoobytuner.com and it goes for $80 before shipping. Not to sound like an a$$ but did you bother to search for yourself?

**Shailoche** · 07-30-2007, 10:12 PM

Yes, I did some searching on my own....however, I did not come up with the exact model for the 2006 Impreza 2.5.
So, I thought I would ask those people here...for a second opinion and any other sites where the kit was less expensive.
I could only find this kit for $120....so, your help is greatly appreciated.
