A few that have been missed.

DRL Daytime Running Lights fitted to all Canadian SVX

Power Button on the JDM
180 kph speedometer
BBS wheel option on later JDM
Air Con system on JDM (with Display), nice feature is it allows heat to flow from the vents (keeps fingers nice and warm in colder climate)

Canadian SVX do not have security system

Heated seats on at least 94-97 CDN models, the 92 CDN models I have seen do not have seated seats, not sure about 93

It is OEM to the 2.5 1st gen non-USDM. = OEM Subaru, not a dealer cob job It is a direct bolt in replacement for the metal sunroof, and follows the curve of the roof.

If its Subaru, and no modification is required, I certainly think its part of the (my, which very few have helped on) list. ALSO, considering the sever lack of knowledge of it, the sunroof makes sense and stays.

Adding oil cooler to the list. Some one got a linky to info on it?

I would have to argue that what comes on a car and what can be fitted or modified are two different things. Yes, the 97 grill is OEM, but not stock on the 92 - 96 SVX. That is not the way they were sold. A glass aftermarket moon roof (clear/see through) is not stock. If the SVX is modified, it is not stock and is not the way it came from the factory. Your list shows what different OEM items came on different models and markets. (USDM, JDM, etc)
No car came with all of these things because not all of these were available to the different markets. Just a couple of things that needed to be noted. :o

As far as the Glass Moonroof goes, it may have been OEM for some car, but not for the SVX. It was not stock on any SVX, but a dealer aftermarket install. It should not be listed for an OEM Stock part.

Notice the hole for the IR in the handle. Quick question, do all SVXs have the ring around the keyhole that lights up?:confused:

Here's the key (the IR transmitter is circled).

So Zavikan, after input from me, then Sicksubie, then BoxerFanatic, then Earl, you are finally conceding there was no OEM glass sunroof for the SVX? ;) :p

BTW dood, if you know the part number for that glass sunroof, please post it up. I don't believe it has ever been published on here, and it's good work your identifying it as a fitment.

Also you might label it as a "cross fitment" in your list as Boxer suggests, that's appropriate and plenty would be interested.

I would be interested, I've never seen a picture of a glass sunroof installed on an SVX, and the mention of a non-US application was the first that I remember on that. How 'bout a new [another?] thread on the glass sunroof, and completely sort it out this time around?

It is not a key light. It is as hairy states, an IR Transmitter. It is an option on the JDM models. It may look like a light, but it is not. ;) Trust me, some of us know what we are talking about! :o

Technically speaking, everybody is right, as I/R is technically "light", as is every band of the EM spectrum. So your keylights just happen to unlock your doors, and my keylight keeps the monsters from getting me at night.

+1 for Keylights

cool - so did the Aussie cars get this - as my 95 has this key, but not my 92 and never tried it as the battery was flat and saw no need to use.....would be ideal to open the boot instead of fumbling around the keylock when arms are full.

Can't try this now as my SVX is at the mechanics getting some TLC

IR security added w/ pic.

We have alot of the options now listed, but we are missing almost all of the related threads. If there is more then 1 thread that is valuable I can list 2...

I know there are some forum searchers who can post up some linkys.

Re: unfinished oem rarities list. Help me out you svx crazy people.
 
Honestly? yes I am.

Finding posts that go into depth on these subjects has not been forthcoming. Finding threads that mention them is simple.

Everyone here comes from a different knowledge base. I'm simply hoping some one who has already looked into it in the past can simply be like "oh yea, I remember talking about these in depth" and looking up their own screen name, or certain catch words that they remember. Beats me trying to go through pages and pages of junk only to find scant mentions.

Thats why it was easy for me to find info on the INFO lines I have filled. I've already studied them in depth.

rear fogs? not so much. Yet I remember some one posting an in depth view on installing them here. I remember a wiring issue, yet cant find the posts.

Yes - mine also has the IR key / with light around the drivers-side key hole area & the morse-code door handle openers - only took me 10 years to discover all 3 (as I did not have owners manual till 4 year ago).

Mine also has rear deck de-ioniser, blower - it is wired into the fan relay (under glovebox - sort of a t-junction connector).

Thank you so much John. You put a great big dent into this project. I think it is going very well. I learned a couple new things from those posts :D


A better pic of the deionizer would be GREAT. (we have a small stock shot right now)

I dont know there is anything to take a picture OF for the morse handles (there has to be a better name for this)

If you disagree with the above statement,

post:

pictures
web site
forum discussion
supplier
price
country
part number.

Any two of the above will be fine.

In fact any one of the above would be great!

Not really expecting a positive answer on this.

Dealer installed--not factory.

Pics included--not very good ones (raining), but you can see it pretty well.

I would like to try and have a glass sunroof made if possible. (Would of course prefer a part num but i'm probably dreaming.) Could you take some closer pics of the attachments of yours? So I can get one made that attaches like that. Also I think on the normal sunroofs there is a sort of rubber gasket that goes around the sunroof. Is it moved to the outside on the glass one? Thx for the info, my sunroof has some rust and needs to be either replaced or have it cut out filled somehow. I'd rather replace with a glass one :)

BoxerFanatic 11-25-2009 11:14 AM

Re: unfinished oem rarities list. Help me out you svx crazy people.
 
lhopp's glass sunroof looks like an aftermarket unit, albeit probably professionally installed. Nothing wrong with that... but it isn't the same as the factory unit, in configuration.

Most of the time when the rubber welt is on the roof side, it is an aftermarket unit. If the roof skin is stamped with a down-turned flange into the steel of the roof, and the seal is on the moving panel, regardless of whether the moving panel is glass or steel itself, those are usually factory installed pieces.

It is hard to stamp and finish the edge of the steel roof skin of the car after the manufacturing process... so the rubber seal goes on the cut edge of the metal roof skin, when the roof is simply cut for the aftermarket unit. Maybe that has changed more recently, but most aftermarket units try to seal to the roof skin that is just cut away.

The previous rumors were of a glass alternate panel, that directly replaces the steel panel in the SVX's factory installed sunroof system. The rumor was that a 90's era Impreza coupe in Australia had a sunroof with a glass panel, the panel being identical dimensions and attachment to the SVX's factory sunroof system, and swapping the glass panel into the SVX's sunroof system works.

We are still looking for confirmation.

You will note that I said it was "dealer" installed and not factory. It was installed by the Subaru dealer when the car was new. It is not as large as the factory metal roof, but it was well done and has never leaked.

I have never claimed there was an OEM glass sunroof and I know there was not. This was a great alternative for people that wanted a sunroof on L and LE models.

Lee

svxistentialist 11-25-2009 02:26 PM

Re: unfinished oem rarities list. Help me out you svx crazy people.
 
It looks a good job to me Lee.

Also I would suspect the fact that it seals to the rubber gasket externally makes it less susceptible to leaks than the OEM one.

Joe

BoxerFanatic 11-25-2009 08:16 PM

Re: unfinished oem rarities list. Help me out you svx crazy people.
 
I am thinking I might need a new rubber welt that isn't shrunk or collapsed for mine, as it leaks pretty easily, and the roof leaves a gap at the front or the rear whenever it is closed... and floods the spare tire well...

So I would hope that a fully welted aftermarket unit that seals well would be pretty good.

I was to lazy to read the entire post, did someone mention the CD changer for the trunk? or the blank plate for the trunk mount led. or the BBS's or the shorty center console and 1 piece rear carpet.

Re: unfinished oem rarities list. Help me out you svx crazy people.
 
The above sunroof was not that of what I mentioned. I can confirm that I HAVE seen the early impreza panel in person. It went to Reading V. Unfortunately, I did not snap pics....Its on my list of things to get some day!


The short console... forgot about that one! I honestly have NEVER seen pics of that.I would think it would work in USDM cars... (havent looked at my garaged SVX in months to remember)
Also never heard of the blank plate...
CD changer pics would be appreciated. Info and links! Info and links!

I think the longer USDM console was to accommodate the seatbelts in the early models with the passive seatbelt system. The lap belt was anchored under the center console. Later years it seems they just kept the design.

The long console goes all the way to the rear seat, making a four-seater, and, as mentioned, houses the passive seatbelt spools.

The short console allows for five passengers, in Japan, the SVX has a rear center belt. Add the rear center belt to the list, if not on it.
