Toyota’s Camry Solara coupe is all-new for 2004. This second-generation Solara was developed by the Toyota Technical
Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan, designed by the company’s Calty center in Newport Beach, California, and is built at a
Toyota plant in Kentucky. Its new look, which is both sportier and more elegant, is reminiscent of the Lexus SC430, most
noticeably in its flowing surfaces and rounded rear.

The information below documents the procedure I used to install the Hella Micro DE fog lamps on Saab 92-X.
Disclaimer: This information is provided as a reference and the author assumes no responsibility for any damage that may result from this modification to your car.
1. Prep: I started by purchasing the stock Subaru Fog Lamp Relay and Fog Lamp Switch. Since the car is pre-wired for the factory fog lamps, this allows you to use the existing wiring for the installation of the Hella fog lamps.
The part numbers for the parts are: The Fog Lamp Relay is B48 in the diagram below and is the 3rd relay from the bottom. The location will be the only one empty. The Fog Lamp switch is connected to B160, which will be right behind the switch location. By removing the change holder, I was able to install the relay and switch, and plug the connector into the back of the switch without removing the lower dash panel, but it requires some patience.

Start by removing the factory pillar. This is done by pulling down the rubber door gasket and removing the two screws in the handle area of the pillar, tip the top towards the steering wheel to get it out. You have to use a little force to get it free of the dash.
Though the gauge pod is intended to be used as a replacement for the factory pillar, we suggest cutting the handle off of the factory pillar and using the gauge pod as a cover. This is so that the backs of the gauges will not be visible through the windshield after installation.

This document is intended to help guide you with the installation of the Mazda “Fuel Line Upgrade Kit” (part number N3A1-13-S70A – $63.25) and is in no way intended to be a complete instructional “how-to”. You should have confidence in your mechanical abilities before attempting the following procedure. If you are unsure if you can finish the installation, consult with your local Mazda dealer or mechanic. If you are not comfortable doing this maintenance by yourself, ask a friend to help and work as a team. A pizza and some drinks can go a long way. Read through this entire document in advance and have the factory service manual (FSM) available for any specific maintenance practices, procedures, and torque specifications. Having plenty of time to perform the procedure is recommended, as is a clean work environment.

This should be the same theory for all WRX’s The difference between the MY00 and the MY01 are merely the body shape and a different coloured dash, as the wiring is exactly the same as far as I can see.
1. You will need: -The Shift-I – A Screwdriver – A Multimeter – Wire Strippers – A Soldering Iron – An inline clip (only if you are like me and can’t solder very well!
2. Start by unscrewing and removing the Side Scrivet on the Dash
3. Remove the Change Drawer
4. Unscrew the screw above the Bonnet Release
5. Pull firmly on the left hand side of the bottom part of the dashboard and it should pop out
