I’ve been meaning to post about all the cool parts I have in storage. But truthfully though, it’s a love/hate relationship posting on social media. I’ve been going back and forth on posting but with the encouragement from the GF, I’m slowly pushing forward with this passion project of mine!
So here it is, on todays CLOSE UP post, I present to you an “ultra rare” part… the rain visors! This part is definitely a IYKYK part. I’ve looked for years to find this part brand new and I could never find it. If you’re into part of the Subaru lore, then you’ll know that PN#E3610FE000 has been discontinued for YEARS and finding a set with that PN is basically unobtainable…!
While opening the box, the number E3617FE000 was printed on the box below. This definitely changes the game because as of 21NOV25, if you search for this part number (E3617FE000) online, they are STILL AVAILABLE to buy currently! The only difference between the two part numbers is the install instructions are either in English with the -10 and Japanese for the -17 part number!
The biggest way to tell if you have a genuine side visor is the “SUBARU” embossed into it. These are definitely a lot better than the rain visors you get from eBay and BaysonR.
If you’re new to the blog, my hope with doing the CLOSE UP series is to showcase all the cool parts that I’ve collected throughout the years. Showing the world what AUTHENTIC and RARE parts are and how to help buyers/sellers confirm what their part is. Eventually I’d love that you guys would help write up posts on your rare parts that you’ve collected for your car!
