Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Went to have my rear brakes done but they said I need rotors. Feared the price but somehow I think I did good? $35 each rotor (rears) and they'll be in tomorrow. Will have all new rotors with the exception of the left front, which will be handled in another month or so when I get a new caliper for the front right side as well.

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Lots of welding today, plenty of new metal were there was only rust
Also ordered a set of 4 - Rockford Fosgate Punch speakers off E-Bay - hell of a deal Hope I got it right, 6 x 9's for rear deck. 6 1/2" for the doors Matched up the Clarion CX501 (I decided I didn't need a TV screen) they should sound sensational

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
6x9 is rear. 6 3/4" for door.
Funny story. I changed out door speakers yesterday and they FELL out. The 6 1/2" that were there wernt attached at all. You could use the 6 1/2" but you won't beable to secure them properly. I installed jvc 6 1/2 that can mount in 6 3/4 too. Used self drilling screws. Worked wonderfully.

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
That adapter bracket must of been thrown away or not used for whatever reason when previous owner changed out the door speakers.

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
I want to put in some new 6X9 speakers in the rear shelf.
Can anyone enlighten me as to how to remove the speaker covers on the rear shelf ? |

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
You have to take the back shelf off. The covers are screwed in from the underside of the shelf. When I took it off I had to remove both side panels and fold the seat down to get the shelf off. I then reinstalled without the speaker covers off the shelf to make it easier for when I get around to replacing them.

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?
Bought a donut spare to replace the full size one in my claret. Now I will finally have a bit of room in the trunk .
On my way to buy it I ran into Obewon on Highway 99 driving his Black SVX he just put back on the road. Man that car looks good cruising down the highway. Incidently, we are going on a drive up the Sea to Sky highway between Vancouver and Whistler in the next few weeks. It is a fantastic drive. I will post something when we determine a date and hopefully some other SVXs will join us. Perhaps some of you guys from Washington or Portland want to come up.

It was fun driving side-by-side down that long straight on H'way 99 ... two shiny and almost-pristine SVX's sliding along in parallel for about 3 minutes. |

Drove it to the beach today, sadly it was too busy for real spirited driving.
