D3D has developed this Replacement Dashboard Cubby Lid Panel for the infamous dashboard cubby found in the first generation Subaru Forester models between 1997 and 2002. It’s shaped to increase the volume of the cubby, creating more storage space, and comes with the required hardware for installation. Designed for the SF Forester, but also fits 1997-2000 GC8 Impreza models with the same dashboard cubby.
The factory lid often forms cracks over time due to sun exposure. It can be difficult and very expensive ($300+) to source a replacement in good condition, which is why we’ve made this replacement available as a much cheaper solution. Designed in-house, you can have confidence in correct fitment. We make them from carbon-fibre reinforced Polycarbonate with a colour and surface finish that blends in very well with the surrounding dashboard. This part also includes a mini bit wrench to assist with installation, as it is a tight space to work in. We offer it in a painted finish ready for installation, as well as a raw finish for those wanting to paint the unit themselves (a textured trim/bumper paint is best).
Please note: For best results, we recommend painting the exterior side of this product. The raw material already has good UV resistance, but painting improves it and creates a more even surface finish. Painting also seals the carbon fibres in the material to make cleaning easier. Colours shown on screen may differ slightly to their appearance in person.

Update on my earlier review, it's actually the metal things that the lid screws onto that are stuffed, the lid fits perfectly now that it's not warped from the sun. I suspect the springs on those metal connector things that are stuffed.
Thanks for updating the review Clint, a bit of WD-40 should help on the hinges if they are stiff, it's a common issue
It said it would fit a 2002 Subaru forester which I have But on receiving the lid it was way to small
Hi Gordon, it sounds like you might have a 2002 model SG Forester (2nd Gen) which isn't compatible with this product. Please send us an email with a photo of your vehicle's interior so that we can assist
Fantastic work and great quality. I had to leave the underside of the lid off as per fitment. I had a picture Debossed into the lid of an old bearded man and I’m going to fill it with colour later.
I highly recommend Diverge 3D Rapid Manufacturing to anyone looking to get quality work done.
Thank you for your help in making this great product.
