About this kit

Factory-look upgrade for the 1992–2000 Subaru Impreza. An OEM-match fascia suits the double-DIN bay cleanly, keeping the dash tidy. Steering-wheel controls remain active and the factory camera is retained where fitted. The display is fast to launch, and cooling hardware keeps performance steady in Australian summers.

Supports Apple CarPlay & Android Auto via CarLink 2.0 (pre-installed).

Features you’ll use

Built for Impreza owners who want a factory look, not a universal bracket. The fascia and mounts suit the stock stack, and the loom is plug-and-play. Designed for Aussie heat and rough roads, it wakes quickly and stays responsive on long, hot drives.

Factory Look, Proper Fit

The fascia suits the Impreza's double-DIN opening for a tidy, OEM-style finish. Brackets line up with the stock points, and the loom is plug-and-play. Steering-wheel controls are retained, and the factory reverse camera remains where fitted. Trim adapters are included so gaps and rattles don't creep in after install.

Tune It Your Way

Dial in DSP/EQ tuning with a 16–31 band equaliser and per-channel time alignment. Hi-Res playback and Bluetooth aptX-HD keep detail intact. Planning amps or a sub later? The Impreza-friendly layout is amp-ready and plays nice with factory premium systems, giving you a clean upgrade path.

Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto

The DriverMods difference

Real performance — and real transparency

The current standard is still 28 nm—slower and hotter, with only the highest end units running 12 nm.
Our units start at 12 nm for smooth, lag-free performance (Core & Plus), stepping up to 6 nm in Pro/Max/Flagship for lightning-fast response.

  • spec transparency
  • modern silicon
  • fast boot
  • cool, stable runs
Displays you enjoy looking at

No dim, plasticky panels.
Our Plus / Pro / Max / Flagship use QLED QHD for razor-sharp maps, media, and text.
Our Core tier unit uses a bright, vivid HD IPS display—clear, clean, and easy on the eyes.

FAQs

Will this fit my 1994 Impreza RX?

Yes. It suits all 1992–2000 Subaru Impreza trims, including RX. The fascia finishes flush, SWC are retained, and the factory camera stays working where fitted.

Do the steering-wheel controls still work on the GC/GF?

They do. SWC are supported out of the box on 1992–2000 Impreza (GC/GF) with no extra control box required.

Can I run an 11.5″ screen in a GC/GF dash?

Use caution. Tall 11.5″ floating screens can block the upper vents or hazard button in the GC/GF layout. If you want that size, pick a shallow-mount or low-profile position.

How hard is the install and what tools do I need?

Most home installers rate it a 2/3. Allow about 60 minutes. Tools: Trim Tools, Phillips Screwdriver, and a 10mm Socket.

Will it work with my aftermarket amp and sub?

Yes. The system is amp-friendly and provides a clean signal path for external amplification while playing nice with factory premium-audio options.

Can I use offline maps and the Torque OBD2 app?

Yes. Download map areas for Australia to navigate without coverage and pair a common Bluetooth OBD2 dongle to use Torque for live data and basic diagnostics.
