Considering the 2.0 premium vs the CX5 AWD and the lack of these 2 options seems to be a deal breaker for her (she will be the one using it, AVT HU replacement would cost 65K, 2.5 too expensive)

hi sir, wanted to send you a pm regarding HU replacement but your inbox was full

Had a 4eye reverse sensor installed by subaru alabang...as a freebie.

Works just fine.

sana someone who has upgraded his HU and added a backup camera for his 2.0 iL ride can guide or assist us especially if there were no wire splicing involved.

Does anyone know where to buy side mirror guards/protectors for sj forester? Para iwas manakawan. Thanks!

for HU.... either get the flyaudio (if you are not particular about sound quality) it has gps ,dvd, etc

if you want sound quality -- only practical choice now is the Kenwood DDX630 series...no cutting/splicing and exact fit sa panel.

personally, i would go for alpine or pioneer but we need to change the stereo panel...the new pioneer AVH X series also requires no cutting/splicing

i have experienced buying "OEM" stereos w gps and stuff and ended up selling it after a week

and losing P10k just to dispose it

so better save up or go for the better HU rather than palit ng palit ..

here's a comparison

1) Kenwood DDX -NO GPS P20-22K (exact fit/no cutting/splicing)

2) Pioneer / Alpine 2 din stereos P16-50k (may need pac/swi on some models and change panel)

3) FlyAudio / other china "OEM" W GPS - P25-30k (exact fit/no cutting/splicing) but sound quality is crap

HTH

OT: Sarado na ba yung Subaru Pampanga, wala na sa directory ng Subaru PH?

**jepoy22** · July 12th, 2014 01:17 PM

Sa mga naka NA diyan, may naririnig ba kayong sound na parang tumotope from time to time? sakin meron e, kinakarga ko strictly XCS or shell nitro or basta 95 octane.

and minsan pag nag aaccelerate ako parang minsan may hesitation parang sinisinok,pag diniinan yung gas pedal.

ano na mileage mo sir? One time meron akong na dinig pero nawala siya. Baka dahil sa gas talaga natin, I'm using XCS. Ang ginawa ko noon hinataw ko. Nawala na, until now okay siya. Medyo sensitive ata si Boxer sa gas talaga.
