I use Griots 3-1 Leather cleaner and conditioner on my leather seats. If they are dirty, I'll use a mild APC spray first.

Still have my 05 OBX 5MT, and just picked up a 19 Outback 2.5i premium w/ nav. I'll likely sell the OBXT soon though. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk

Got a CEL with a Cylinder #2 misfire Friday night so I figured it was time to replace plugs and a coil pack (was planning to do this later in the summer anyway). The rear two coil packs are a PITA to get back on and you really have to feel around to get them properly seated. I did run into a problem on the rear passenger (cylinder #3). There just was not enough clearance to get the coil pack out. I tried, and I had someone else try. We rotated 180 degrees, we tried going up, down, and towards the front , as well as various angles in between. I ended up scratching up the valve cover pretty good from trying to wedge the coil pack out. I know the XT has a bit less clearance than the LGT, but it was stupid tight and I gave up after fighting it for a couple hours. I did want to add that I picked up a Gearwrench flex spark plug socket that worked for me with either 1 or 2 1" extensions. I know people love the Snap On one pictured here and it looks fantastic, but this was about 1/6 the price at $12.

Just got mine in. Looks like they may be bare aluminum. Has anyone painted them before installing them? They definitely feel lighter even without pulling the old ones.

How are these holding up?

Does anyone have a spare set of these control arms they want to sell?

Just saw this thread. I've been calling about this recall since late December and no word on when parts will be available. I'm scheduled to drop my car at the dealer tomorrow and pick up a rental in the meantime. Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk

Just because they have been working for you doesn't mean they are fine. I've used DDM kits, Morimoto kits and OEM. DDM is trash. Not to mention installing HID in halogen projectors or reflectors will throw light in all the places you don't want and blinds other drivers.

Did you even read this thread? DDM HID kits are garbage. If you want HIDs then do a complete retrofit. Otherwise stick with the recommendations in this thread.

The connector looks pretty similar. They are both square 8 pin. The main connector changed from 14 pin to 20 pin. Is that what you are referring to?

Thanks for the heads up. The seller told me it would work so I went ahead and ordered. The connector itself is the same through so I can remove the pins and move them around right?

Has anyone seen this adapter? I sent the seller a message to ask the pinout and plug dimensions. http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=121744022059&fromWatch=true Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk

Just read through this thread. It seems that computer CD audio 4 pin cables are the best source of pins right now? Did anyone find the pins that can be used with the stock i85 connector?

Looks good!

05 Outback XT unlimited 5mt

There is one local to me. I tried to buy it, but the owner wouldn't budge on price and it was a bit over my max budget this time around.

Wow, so I just found a silver 05 outback xt unlimited with a manual transmission. If these numbers are correct there were only 2 produced in North America and come Friday I will own one of two!

Can't... unsee....

ASPCA still gets 2% below invoice Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk

Bump, anyone know if this is still working? Looking at purchasing a new subaru later this year.

That's interesting. I have Koni's with eibach springs and while I like being able to adjust the struts, realistically I leave them 99% of the time and wish I had a bit softer ride.

They are discontinued I believe... I haven't seen them in stock anywhere for a fee months. You'll probably have to get some Epics. They are the same spring

On the highway it's awesome! In my town the roads suck and it's a little rough. I haven't found the perfect spot for in town driving... At least in my town.

That's what I'm running right now. http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb393/soloz210/2006%20Legacy%20Letchworth%20Pics/IMG_0811.jpg

I haven't noticed any discoloration on my headlights.
