Brake cooling ducts on an 04?

I know that some 02 WRXs came with brake cooling ducts, but they were phased out for the 03+ models. I was wondering if the 04 models still have the provisions for the brake ducts (I know the 03 do).

Parts that are needed for this install will run about $20-30, which isn't much considering they will keep the brakes from fading just that bit longer.

59123FE000 (passenger's side duct)
59123FE010 (driver's side duct)
46064AE000 (fastener clip)

Thanks!

Take a look at the splash guard on your car. On my 02 there is an opening just under the fogs and the splash guard has a channel just behind them. If you have these channels all you have to do is buy the parts and install them over these channels.

^Wait, so they mount onto the splash guard? That means I wouldn't be able to run a skid plate underneath, darn.

I don't think you will have them on your 04. You could do this http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/showthread.php?t=90383

Here's the setup on an 02-03 http://www.scoobymods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1664

^ Eh, I don't want to get rid of my fogs. If it doesn't have the channels then oh well.

It's an easier decision when you don't have fogs :character00231:
