Just got back from getting the windows tinted; went with 35% all around and it looks wonderful. The guys at Umbra Window Tinting do a great job; I'd recommend them to anyone close to Chicago. I'll post some better pictures in the sun when I get some more time.

RallySportDirect

Hardest Portion of the Install

Finding the correct ECU wiring diagram for a 2004 STI to locate the RPM and MPH (Speed) wires. We ended up using a combination of AllData, Mitchell on Demand (I believe) and the 2004 Diagram below found on the web.

Together we were able to tell the connector location (#) and where pin locations were.
