bemani Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 Does anyone have the service manuals for the outback & legacy to check if the wiring for the power is available to the back of the Legacy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdgarber Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I know the Legacy wagon comes with an accessory power outlet in the trunk area. I don't believe this is offered on the sedan, but I am not certain about that. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwannaSportSedan Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I thought it was only the Outback Wagon that had the rear DC socket. I would think it would be no big issue to add it to a legacy wagon, and other than a wire to the trunk, to a sedan as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanoswrx Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 The sedan only has one in the under dash portion, and in the arm rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 No, the Legacy wagon does not have the rear power outlet (cheap bastards) but it does have a blank covering where it would go. I wouldn't be surprised if the wiring harness to connect it in is back there as well. I might try to pull the panel and see sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoblePrawn Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 If you would I'm sure a bunch of us would be really interested to know if its there. -NP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPower Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Is it just me or is that a silly thing to leave out? I guess only OB owners desire the utility or would be pumping up tires or tailgating. I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Yes, I agree, that's what makes them Cheap Bastards (TM) My conspiracy theory is that Subaru America wanted to make sure that the Outback was the top of the line model, so they deleted things like this, and the Homelink, and the traction control, and MP3 stereo, and moonroof tilt control, and...

Ken S Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 So if it's only $26 bucks, I'm going to guess the wiring is already in place. Sweet. But then again, I rarely used the rear outlet in my Forester. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
change_agent Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I noticed this thread is a couple of years old but I wonder if someone could tell me if they now include a power outlet in the left cubbie in the cargo area? The Owner's manual says Yes but when I went to used it today...not there not even the wiring. I thought this was standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberman Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Here's a thread with all of the Subaru part numbers, etc to install the power outlet in one of the available pocket mounting locations: [url]http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9097&highlight=trailer+harness[/url] I did this install on my 05 wagon and it turned out fine, works great! Hardest part was finding/pulling down the wiring harness behind the pocket to attach the 12V connector to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

change_agent Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Thanks for the heads up...I contacted my Service Manager...a really solid guy and very client centred fellow...and pointed out that the Owners mannual says it should be there..."There is no SCI documentation to state whether or not it should be there or not"...So he has order the part..for my next service...so we will see who will pay....me or Subaru Canada.

change_agent Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 PS. Brian...I looked at your posting to put it in...and the Dealership has to replace some of the trip panels where the cargo cover goes...they were all scratched up at delievery so he is replacing them...so it won't be hard to find the connector. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronmjr Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Bump from the dead. Does anyone know if an 06' sedan would have the appropriate wiring in the back to plug and play the Subaru parts for a rear power outlet? Or is the sedan wiring completely different?
