The Best Interior Modification, Flocking my 2005 Subaru STI Dashboard!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Back to flocking some goodies! Been wanting to do the dash in the 2005 Subaru WRX STI! The Main reason people flock their dash is to reduce glare off of the dash, mainly doe in rally cars BUT Looks so good to do on street cars. The dash is actually REALLY easy to remove from this model. When I did it in the 2017 STI it was am absolute nightmare to pull our of the car, so relatively glad that this was a bit easier. But wanted to show you guys how to do this as well!
Disclaimer I do not know of anyway to remove this so it would be considered a permanent modification.

I love the reflection of the clouds in the hood during the time lapse
just came down to the comments to say this😂
🔥😅🔥😅
It’s cool that both Matt and Melanie help you out with your projects...👍🏻
Gotta call in the troops whenever I can 😉🔥
You could capture it with a flockin' big plastic hopper, like for seeding. Matt is a genius 😂. Looks so much better on there thick!
Agreed! The thiccness gives much cleaner coverage 😍 and we need to make this hopper 😅😅😅
Time to redo the other sti's dash. This one definitely turned out tons better. Good stuff
Agreed, need to figure out how I can re do it 😅😅
@@Smeedia uneducated guess here, but I'd just slop it on over it lol
Pulling the dash and personalizing it!! Nothing like making a subie truly your own!! Love 'n da content!!!
Eyyy thanks my man! Love the way it turned out!
OMG i thought the car was smoking cause the clouds rolling through on the hood hahah almost had a heart attack.
Lol we would have some problems if it was 😅😅😅
that time lapse on you're moving the dash, you can see the cloud formations moving. really cool bro
The reflections always look so good 😍
B roll footage is awesome as usual! Flocked dash look great!🔥🔥
Thanks Xander! Came out so much better than the first one I did!
Since I’ve been wanting to flock my dash I had to watch this. It looks so good!
What the flock!!! Looks great man!! Shout out to small dog!!
Eyyy thanks Don! Smol dog is living life 🙌🙌
Looks soooo cheeky now!
So Cheeky! 😍
Yo love how your channel inspires me too do all this crazy stuff to my car! Can't wait to do this to my dash in the RX8, going to look so nice!!!
Lemme know how it comes out! Just make sure you've got enough flock 🔥😁
@@Smeedia oh yeah going to get all the bags lol
Did this a couple months ago and now I need to pull it again cause I missed a few spots, make sure you get it in the sunlight before you put it back it in
For sure, just checked this one and looks good!
definitely getting this done during the summer!! (🐐)
Well worth it my dude, reduces glare so much!
That flocking dash looks so good 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Another good video!!!
Eyyyy thanks Bryant!
OMG! The scruff mcgruff!!
That made my day. Me and my friends said the same quote all the time.
Lol idk what made me think of it but stuck with me for two days 🤣🤣🤣
What the flock, looks so flocking good bro.
Well done as always ✌🔥
Thanks my man! 🙏🙌
Definitely want to see how it looks in the car! Been thinking about flocking the dash in my 02 wrx
Ohhhhh it looks so good! Short video on that coming out soon!
Awesome, now I wanna flock mine.
Flock itttt 😁
@@Smeedia keep the great videos coming bro. I appreciate them.
For your 2017 can you re-flock the flocked dash? If so I would consider it. Think about it for a moment you are replacing the engine on the 05, improving it. The dash is already out. You are going to great pains in the engine bay, seems like the interior deserves the same level of love.
Ohhhh there's a way to re do it, just need to figure out... how 😅😅😅
Flocking awesome dude 🤙
🙌🙌🙌
That is like 1000 x better looking... Nice work...
Thanks Mark! 🙌😁
Love seeing the continuous improvement. You're growing so much my man!
Trying to keep expanding on what I already know and get better, always appreciate the support my friend ❤
great funnel idea,a piece of linoleum floor would make a good funnel to catch the excess flok,man that looks good brother,finally cought some time to comment again, garden fence where the main priority, you know the life stuff.😉 👍✌️👉
Oh I feel it! And the floor idea would work pretty well, might have to do this next time 😁
Make sure when you flocking use a ventilator, this stuff can really cost your lungs bad if you’re not careful !!
Good to know, did not think this stuff was that bad 🙈
That looks freaking awesome. I would definitely try if I was more comfortable removing my dash.
Depending on what you've got they're not too terrible to remove 😁
While you got the dash out, are there any tips to reduce the amount of dash rattles!? I love the look of that flocked dash 👏👏
Electrical tape around pop on clips works great!
Very nice! Just wondering tho, would the airbag still be able to pop out if anything were to happen? (Knock on wood ofc)
Yes it would, just a layer of adhesive and sueade on it 😁
@@Smeedia thanks man, I would def do this to my future car, keep up all the good work👌🏻
Was just talking about Scruff Mcgruff on Saturday, go figure.
Lol what odd timing 😅😅😅
I know you posted this video a while ago, but how much flock was in each bag you used? I’m gonna flock my dash and want to make sure I’ve got enough. Sweet vid man, keep up the work!
There was 1 lb in each bag, 1.5lbs is more than enough for most average size dash boards 🙌
Loved watching this looks so good! Considering doing this to my Bugeye, might flock the A/B/C pillars as well
Worth ittttt 😁😁😁
Hydro dip the dash panels
Ohhh that would look good! May have to give it a try 👀
@@Smeedia carbon fiber hydro dip is nice
That looks really good 👀👀 kinda wish I had space to do it
Don't need much to be able to knock it out 😁
Well I’m going to do this to my 05 now
Worth it 😁
I flocked the like button and it looks soooooooo much better
Lol yesss 🤣😅
Looks sweeet! What’s the best way to clean it in the future once it gets dusty?
Sonex makes a cleaner for it 😁
Been thinking of buying a spare dash to do the same.
Worth itttt 🙌🙌🙌
Walk it like I flock it, I walk it like I flock it
🤣🤣
Get this man more subs!!!!
❤❤❤
Painting plastic and and some 1/2” pvc pipe framing
Whatcha building? 👀
@@Smeedia a temp flock catcher. PVC frame with sagging plastic (like a rain catcher) to funnel to a catch can.
Ur really making me want to flock my dash now that this is the 2nd one u have done.
It's worth ittttt 😉😁
Tan the Man!
🙌🙌🙌🙌
That looks awesome..good job
Thanks Cody 🙌🙏
That flocking dash thou!!!! (Pun intended.)
😉😉😉
How do you clean it?(serious question) Also are you going to go into detail with the parts and why you went with them for the new motor? I was going to follow the original build with my car but now that your building yours I’d like to tag along and build mine. Cheers!
Sonex makes a cleaner for it 😁 and yes I will be. Once I have everything and we start building it I'll have a detailed breakdown 😁
@@Smeedia sweet!
Thank you for a very nice how to . Might commit on my bugeye.
Worth itttt, looks so good when done 😍
This awesome thanks for the idea!!!
Glad I could share 🙌
Wow!! Really considering doing this on my 06.....🤔
Worth ittttt, super easy to remove the dash and looks killer!
Scruff got busted true story. would a Motzerela shaker work too sprinkle that felt stuff cool effect though
Scruff got busted?!
And it might, but not sure how effective it would be
Whaaaaaa, get the flock outta here!!
😂😂
😎👍🏻👍🏻
I can't flocking stop myself!
@@Smeedia unflocking believable
😂😂
😎👍🏻👍🏻
Isnt that glue when it drys gonna glue your pass side airbag in so it cant deploy or its gonna deploy wrong?
It'll still deploy, the airbag breaks through that area, the glue won't stop it from doing so
Curious, what happened to the air intake funnel you modified to fit? Havent seen it in since you put the car back together?
Never put it back in because thr power steering lines are in the way 😅
@@Smeedia oh man... that is annoying.
You could probably soak that paint brush in some paint thinner to clean it so it is useable again and not so... rock hard.
Taking that dash out is far easier than removing the integra dash... so many screws... and you need to remove vents to be able to access screws that bolt it down.
Curious how much flock got into those vents >_> it might have been a good idea to have covered the vents. Hopefully you wont have too much flock in the vents and dont get poofed on :)
I blew the vents out with the air compressor. Supisingly not too much was in there 😅
Thanks for making this vid. I'm going to flock my entire interior 😁
So much flock! 😁
Looks like the alcantara in my moms M2 :)
Trying to make it fancier 😉
What would you use to clean your dash?
To clean the flock?
So as makes a cleaner for it 😁
The like button is black but it used to be blue like the Subaru
It keeps changing on us 👀
Damn looks so good man
Thank you! Super happy with the out come 🙌
What up dude?. Who’s sweet silver intake is that in the back ground on the chair?
🤫🤫🤫 you saw nothing lol
AMS intake manifold.!
🤫🤫🤫🤫
I don't know if anyone already asked it but..
Is it safe to use on interior parts especially those usually exposed to direct sunlight? I am talking about fumes and their toxicity.
And...hey! Chicago brother in "drive." t-shirt ;)
It'll off gas for a few days, which is why I'd suggest letting it cure but shouldent have any issues. It may fade a little over the years but not by much
@@Smeedia thanks, man.
This is actually good way to make old crappy dash look better, more functional and premium.
Doesn’t gluing the air bag cover mess up the function of the passenger air bag? Or am I overthinking it?
No, when the air bag deploys it tears through that area in the dash so the glue shouldent have any effect other than possibly making the passanger look like a chicken 😅
Think this is a good idea for a headliner replacement? 🤔 it looks so good.
If the glue would stick I could see it working 👀🔥
we need a flock counter for this video
Lol next time this happens I'll add one in 🤣
man, i need to do this but... no actual space. the wind would just blow crap all over
Lol it would make a huge mess 😅
How do you remove the stupid center dash sensor wire that attached to the dash. I got everything out beside that one..
I ended up cutting it then adding new connections that were easily assembled because that shit was impossible to get out
Anyone else waiting for the POOF when he turns on the A/C?
Flock it. Flock it real good.
So FLOCKING GOOD!
@@Smeedia I expect your next video to be "Homies, I love how the dash turned out so much that in this video, I'm flocking myself!"
🤣🤣🤣 flock my arm lol
I wanna do it but some much work
Really did not take long to do, depending on the chassis 😅
AMS goodies on show 🤭
🤫🤫🤫😉😉
How much flock can a Tanner flock flock if a Tanner could flock flock. 🤣 Can someone count how many times he said flock? 🤣
Lol 😅😆🤣
AMS. 🤙🔥
🤫🤫🤫
is your dash ruined after doing this? can you ever get it back to normal?
There's no way of going back that I'm aware of 🙏
@@Smeedia you are a brave man sir
Aye bpi
Ayeeeeee 🙏🙌
Funnel a tarp into a big Tupperware.
Ohhhhhh yes!
Question for you sir, I just recently put tgv deletes and a turbo inlet and fuel rails/lines in my car. Everything went pretty smooth but there is a line (3/8in) that seems to be coming off one of the pcv hoses or the turbo inlet, right in front of the turbo almost under the throttle body. I can't for the life of me figure out where this was supposed to go and I labeled pretty much everything, except this one hose apparently. Would you happen to know the purpose of the hose I'm talking about? It seems to be facing the fire wall and it's right under the bpv hose going to the inlet.
It's the evap hose for the evap solenoid, normally I delete it but some people retain it 🙏
How to flock the garage floor in 5 easy steps
😅😅😅
Where did you get that steering wheel?
Kami speed 🙏 it's thr DAMD Wheel 😁
Exactly how much flock did you use? Was it 3 3oz bags?
One 1 lb bag 🙏
@@Smeedia thank you
The glue should come in a spray.
I've got some that's a spray as well
How much flock was used
About 1 lb 🙏
In the unfortunate event of an accident, your passenger is gonna look tarred and feathered lol
Lmao I shluldent be laughing but I can't help it 🤣🤣🤣
are you flocking serious?! Again?!
I just can't flocking stop!
I swear to God if I have to hear another fucking bitcoin credit card advertisement..........😡😡🤬🤬
Lol that's a thing?!
@@Smeedia they're on every video. It's to the point where I know the words for each one at least 5 seconds in 😂🤣
