There is a guy on germanlook.net who had a TSR convention done to his beetle. Find him and speak to him about his conversion.
All I'll say is that you should research, research and do more research then decide if you really want to use this company.
They are famous for their loom work and have gotten themselves a reputation for their work. _________________ Think......

It's one thing having a reputation as long as it's the right reputation  |

From what I've heard.... I'd spend the money elsewhere.
Try a search on here for them _________________ The advice you receive on here is worth the paper it's written on.

Fellows speed shop. i went to there place to have a look and i was really impressed. they pay real attention to detail. i found them honest and very helpful and i ended up getting my loom redone and ordered a list of goodies
oh and they even collected me from the airport and dropped me back later after a blast in one of there splitscreen conversions,really nice guys !! |

Steer well clear!!!!! I've spent years researching, fixing, changing pretty much everything Tsr did to mine, they even managed to fcuk up the brake conversion!
Friendly guys but obviously know fcuk all about subarus or don't care.
I know there are many more like me as many of them have help me rectify the problems!
As for his lovely web site and glossy ads..... My van is on there ....

| I almost went to TSR last year but fortunately they didn't answer all my questions so I didn't take it any further. Now having it converted at Fellows. I'll let you know the outcome. |

Ermmmmm.......... This could be another Shitephone issue..... Or perhaps because I'm on the VWKD.com site but the leading Subaru specialist website advert isn't here today.
Perhaps they've been sued for the last time?? _________________ Think......

After reading this thread and what others have told me in the past I thought it best that the advert made like a tree and....
I left it there in the past as I assumed the parts they sell are ok? so useful for the discount they offered to VWKD members by having an advert on the site...
If anyone thinks I should put the ad back for discount due to the stuff they sell being ok then let me know. |
