Thanks. I was thinking of trying the wrx version. But I like the Imprezas steering wheel as it’s better looking to me lol. Even though it’s expensive, but at least I’ll know it’ll fit for sure.
I've been waiting for aftermarket options for the VB WRX, as it finally went global platform! It's no secret the VA WRX has an insane amount of OEM style steering wheel options that are fantastic... Hopefully the VB market follows suit and we can get nice alcantara, CF, and flatbottom options for our imprezas! I'll raise your 90% and say I'm 95% sure all global platform steering wheels are interchangeable, provided same button layout. (Most notably eyesight and SI drive buttons, which the 2020+ sports got)
That's sick! I wouldn't have thought that swap would work, but I suppose once you figure out the pinning for the plugs, why wouldn't it? I wouldn't do the swap, just because I've driven VA WRX's and personally never liked the button layout, and I think the buttons themselves date the interior, but it looks great in yours. Plus I bet the flat bottom is awesome.
Deffinetly had to look up a lot of pictures and videos, but it works great for me. havent been able to find a good picture with the wiring diagram so i havent been able to fix the media controlls. In total the sti steering wheel and the air bag cost me 415$.
I know the iDoing headunit for WRX's allows full customization of the steering wheel buttons' functions in it's settings. I wonder how hard a retrofit of that would be... pretty soon you'll just have a full wrx dash 😂

Anyone got $700-$900 extra just laying around for a steering wheel? 😂 😂
I’m not a fan of those steering wheels. Looks cheap and something that should be on a car from the 80’s
I mean, for a car designed in the 80s to replicate the 60's roadsters seems fitting...

Nope. Its all global platform now, so minus fitting the appropriate controls on each side, I'd be 90-99% sure they are exactly the same fitment as well.
The OEM wrx alcantara wheel would actually be a good option since it's flat-bottom... when it becomes available lol. But at a +$450 option just to get it on the VA, I have no idea what it would cost as a stand-alone unit.I mean, for a car designed in the 80s to replicate the 60's roadsters seems fitting...
I actually got an 80's Mazda Rx7 wheel for my Miata to replace the leather cracking OEM Miata wheel.
As for the Impreza, $800 still seems steep for what is effectly a copy of the OEM wheel that costs less...

Which trim has the alcantera? I selected the limited trim, but I presume the GT may have the nicer wheel.
