DIL just destroyed my rear rim and tire....I am leaving town today and I hate to post this way but I need to find a rim ASA humanly possible.. 03 legacy SE edition that has the 16" BBS style rims .. would appreciate it if anyone could provide link ...thanks bd

thanks for the reply on the antenna routing...I just had not thought it out in my mind but was aware of the rubber plug for passing the cable thru to the inside...sounds like a clean install...regards...bill

this is what I want to install http://www.xm-radio-satellite.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=275 it has the fm modulator built in ..has bracket to mount on flat surface .. this is what i have found http://www.gbxdirect.com/store/satellite_radio_mount_kit.php?make=Subaru bracket is almost as much as radio bill

I want to install XM in my 03 legacy S/W since its awsum in the work van...searched a couple of sites and a mounting bracket for the sub runs 30-40 bucks ...ouch!!...anybody have any tips for mounting and antennae location/cable routing...the roadready2 units have a vent(flimsey) and stickum mount (no flat surface) tks bill

owned both the OBW and now a legacy SW....I prefer the legacy because of its lower stance(handles a lot better) , its cheaper,same car pretty much,...did I mention its cheaper! thereby allowing more $$$ for mods etc....

Update: bought the above switch assy from subie gal, and it's a direct plug-in update for adding the delay or misting option to the standard 2 speed wipers...exactly the same , even down to the stamped # on the plastic housing...took all of 15 minutes to do the switch... Only difference in the impreza instructions, linked above , and my 03 legacy was that I had 1 screw that lowered the bottom half of the steering wheel cover...the other 2 screws were visible after removing the bottom cover...fwiw...bill

I have been running the factory full front end bra and haven't noticed any paint issues at all...take it off regularly and clean and wax ....I do not have the chipped paint problem anymore...factory bra fits perfect and I am pleased...bd

and put some Dilectric grease inside the boot, just a light coat, so that you can remove them easier the next time...bd

local sub parts gave me PN 83114AE170 as the misting wiper switch(steering wheel stalk) for an 03 Legacy Outback...since I have the legacy L/se ....I assume that it should work...anyone know for sure...any sub parts guys on the forum..I would rather buy from you...bd

sorry....2003 Legacy L, se edition...Not familiar with rain tracker, will have to google that....I question the dealership response , I mean we're talking assy line work here...tks for response...bd

http://www.ravensblade-impreza.com/modifications/interior/wiper/wiper.html found this upgrade for the impreza and wondered if it would work for the legacy wagon I have..all I have are the 2-speed wipers and I need the delay wiping action .I would think that the 2 would be interchangable but would like to know for sure b/4 visiting my stealership....bd

couldn't stand it any longer...I got a set of iridium plugs from Boxer4, Dale Teague ...UPS delivered today and I installed them...D***Factory put champion plugs in....since I also have a cat-back stromung system we will see what happens now...I really dont understand why champions in a sub...common sense says NGK all the way...the champs looked Ok though , nice light brown with no signs of carbon or running rich and no deposits at all... If milage doesn't improve I will just have to get the borla's and a hi-flow cat!!! more to follow bd

thanks, I found some other info over on nasioc ...bd

anyone heard or done business with these guys http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33631&item=7956600219&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW I am looking for a set of headers for my n/a 03 legacy and these they look similar to the borla's (300.00) ... I am cautious but they look identical..what say you'all...

I owned a 99 OB wagon and traded it in on an 03 legacy se wagon and really prefer the legacy wagon over the OB anyday of the week...same drive train with a much cheaper price tag...only thing I am missing is the leather seats which I can live without...the regular legacy will sit a little lower than the OBW but I like it for looks, entrance/exit....Being that you are from upstate NY I bet you could probably find a Brighton model if you looked hard enough...it is a bare boned sub, roll-up windows , steel wheels, etc but its still a sub...U will probably have to find that one used as I believe sub stopped making them last year... Funny quirk here , I would almost trade for the VW Jetta SW TDI , I am getting serious about bio-diesel...good luck
