Hey audiophiles if you're out there!
Just wandering if anyone else on here is also a bit of a bass lover?
I've always done something with my cars sound system.
Just wandering if anyone else here has done an install on their scoob and whether you have any pics.
I'm part way through mine at the moment but was thinking of doing a thread somewhere showing the work that's gone into it.
Just not sure it'd interest anyone 😂
Seeing as I couldn't find any relative threads

Granny is your man for installs but his in in a UTE now!

My old Bugeye had a reasonable install in it for a while not sure if there’s any pictures about but I did some when I moved the system over to the Forester now it’s only the Legacy bits that’s really only a heady it install but that was a proper pita with the sourcing of new panels and A/C controls along with an interface for the steering wheel remote but worth every scraped knuckle!
I’ll be going for a set of front components and rear coaxials running add an external amp at some point and would love a sub again but don’t want a box on the boot as I often have quiet a bit in the boot.

Ah a little interest then. Ok cool I'll start putting something together.
I did phase 1 last year. Just bought the next few components to finish it over the Christmas break hopefully.
May well start the thread then too.

Imprezas need a lot of sound deadening to ever sound good, or they just rattle there tits off

Did the front doors in phase 1 and they sound great.
Not doing the boot as would be visible but you'll only hear those rattles outside.
Don't care what it sounds like to people on the pavement 😂

Not going crazy anyway as the post might suggest.

I did a speaker and head unit upgrade but pointless as can’t hear it over the induction and exhaust now...

Sound deadening was terrible idea as weighs loads and does nothing for me now hahaha..

Agreed that Granby (Ian) is your man for quality sound installs - check out his Holden thread

Quick link to the door speaker install on the forester - same method for the Impreza only point left out was the off cuts of sound deadening I put on the outer skin to dampen vibration.

That would kind of defeat the point to be fair!
