Hi all bought a 1.6gt in November been pretty pleased with car except the head unit which I have finally changed. Fuel economy is not great 33ish mpg, but I like the car.

I decided to go with a 200x100 android head unit using a surround from a 2015 wrx and the center vents from the same car both sourced from eBay. Turned out pretty good. I didn’t like the look of the big screen just personal taste I’m sure they are good. Any way I have posted a couple of pics, best bit is CarPlay the old HU was pretty choppy.
I was able to use the DAB+ and gps antenna built into the car, took ages to find an adapter.

SBU-SMA Subaru GPS/DAB factory antenna conversion cable

Don't cut !! Use Subaru GPS or DAB antenna with aftermarket radios. Restrictions apply. Please read entire description, warning & assembly etc. prior to ordering.

This does both the gps and dab.

Welcome 33mpg is pretty good in my eyes. My vw touran does about 28mpg in city driving.

I dead to think what my levorg gets.

It’s ok. I’m happy with car and I bought it with only 11000miles on it. The best but now is the head unit I keep playing with it. The eyesight is great makes motorway driving easy.
Very happy with the car.

Welcome.

33mpg sounds good to me too. Obviously, depends a lot on how you drive and the roads. I have had more than 50mpg on a 15 mile run (admittedly I was stuck behind someone driving far too slowly!)
