I'll 1 up you all and go 0% //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

I think there might be a reason you got it for 18k less than Blue Book value...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Should turn out okay though. Good luck with the build.

Flat black spray paint would run you cheaper then

double 5% tint is 2.5% //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
2% is the darkest it goes I think

The FBI surveillance cars do their ish with 2%

If I remember physics correctly, it would be alot darker than 2.5%, more like 5% of 5%.

Double tint can make it hard or slow to roll the windows up and down. And anything lower than 15 or 10% and you generally have to roll the windows down to turn.

nice car when it is done. I almost bought one a few years back. Going to use the stock headunit and run a external processor? I know you can't swap the factory deck out in these. And don't go less than the 5% tint. I had like 2% on the rear of the jeep I had and backed into my own fence //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

The way the shop told me is mathematics

10% tint will be twice as dark as 20%

5% twice as dark as 10%

etc....

If you go lower it's actually considered "MORE" lol

But yes you can:

oh snap...when did that come out. I was looking to buy an 05 like 3 years ago and everyone on the legacy forum said it wasn't possible.

 

[wu501 10+ year member]

and I don't think that will work on the GT anyway...I think that is for base legacy's but I could be wrong. I'll go check out of curiosity.

One step ahead of you //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It does work, I did a install on a 05 GT for my dad's business partner's nephew

Which kind of made me want to buy the new GT.

I think this dash kit was just made available 5-6 months ago

Before, people were doing custom fiberglass work to fit DIN and DDIN in there

If you have automatic climate control you cannot directly replace the stereo because the stereo and climate controls are integrated into one board.

Most guy s in the legacygt forum either run an external processor or locate a aftermarket head unit elsewhere in the car.

Our shop has been working on Subarus for over 13 years.

We should be able to figure it out

Maybe I'll just do a 3sixty.2 or something of the like.

I'd really like to have a Indash though.

Custom work will def. be getting done

just skimmed the thread, but after tear down, what was damaged?

rad support....frame bent a little it looks like?

Its a measure of the percent of light that can pass through the film. Its not simple plus/minus math.

Kinda like cone area lol 12 + 12 > 18
