Subaru DiY | 1993-2001 Impreza OEM Carpet Install [RSTi Build #51]

Subaru DiY | 1993-2001 Impreza OEM Carpet Install [RSTi Build #51]

Tutorial / walk-through for the installation of a NEW OEM CARPET in a 1993-2001 Impreza. It includes a detailed look at all the OEM clips and fasteners. This video is part of a INTERIOR RESTORATION SERIES for the 1998-2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS Coupe (*most videos apply to all 1993-2001 Impreza models).

This video is part of a “Build Series” (see “Playlists” tab for all videos) for my 1998 Rally Blue Pearl RSTi Coupe (Impreza 2.5RS swapped with a EJ205 turbo engine), which is 1 of only 720 sold in the USDM for 1998. This RSTi Build has come a long way and includes a full archive of videos documenting how to: (1) Pull a EJ-series turbo engine, (2) Replace the head gaskets, (3) Add key upgrades to increase long-term reliability, and (4) Restore the interior to OEM specifications.

Luke, great videos! My son and I are doing a 2001 RS swap with a JDM V6. It's our first project of this nature. Thanks to you, the process has been great! You show stuff that the manuals don't . Keep it up!

Where did you get the carpet?

Does your car not have the plastic floor ducts for the HVAC?
