Thumbs up How many are rockin' roof rail deletes on your wagon?

Just finished taking my entire 'Lego Interior' apart ~ 2 guys 3 hours... You got to WANT it. Pull the head liner, the A,B,C & D pillars, all belts, lights, visors, AND thresholds.

But ~ Dahmnn if it don't look better!!!

Found a DYI that was about 60% of the process (a lot of overlooked and ignored information) on ScoobyMods.com You use delete trim from a Canada spec Impreza wagon to replace our USDM trim.

If you are rail-less, post a shot and flaunt it ~ God knows you worked for it. After total re-assembly I only have one new rattle that I need to chase down...

I will try and post pictures here before too long (working through the Labor Day holiday)... maybe I'll sneak out before work and snap some.

Thumbs up Wagons Rule!

Mr Doo-Doo:

Very clean wagon ~ I say clear the headlights and keep it simple. I'd post a pick of mine cleared, but I'm at work selling Subies... **** controls on my internet usage, can attach da nada.

Thank God for 'Scooby's House Of Pain'... or I could see NO partially clad ladies at work ;-)

Lightbulb DIY Roof Rail Delete?

I considered it as we did it the night before last (since I made my living in the photo world of car ads) but I just wanted to get it done.

Perhaps Scooby mods would let me get in there and 'modify' and add to the current write up...

Or, I could just cut and paste and piece it together ~ and post here. You really don't need pictures... words can get 'er done. It's just a lot was left out, and you had to guess. This added another 30-45 minutes to the process.

But it was worth it. The buggy looks soooo much better now!

Cool! I bet your car looks just great with the headlights cleared. Made such a difference in my car. I had local Subies lined up at my dealership to do there's after looking at mine!

I sell at Southern Oregon Subaru in Medford, OR. A great store, with no sales pressure and a great owner. His son has one of the meanest looking Bug Eye Rex's around in black... and he sells along side me. We have the gearheads covered when they come into our store!
