  1. I have just replaced my factory 02 OBW stereo and single CD player w/ another Subaru stereo w/ a 6 CD changer. I would like to sell the unit, but before I go to eBay, I thought I would see if anyone here was interested. I know the dealer price of $500 is ridiculous. If interested, please contact me. Tim
  2. Hi Glen, I have successfully removed the shifter panel. I don't see the two screws at the bottom of the vert panel. I have a few pix I took but I can't upload them due to size constraints. I think my next course of action is to buy the service manual. I'm a little nervous because the one I am looking at is for 2000 - 2004 Outbacks, and that is what you have. Does a call to the dealer make sense? Thanks, Tim
  3. unverviking and Strakes - Thanks for the tip. That looks a lot easier than ripping out the entire pan assembly.
  4. Cougar, Thanks for the link but it appears the Imprezza is a little different from my OBW. I don't have the cup holder on top that allows me to get access to the woodgrain trim piece that surrounds the stereo and HVAC cluster. Would the Service manual contain this info? What are your thoughts on buying the CD version of the manual on EBay vs buying the books? Thanks, Tim
  5. Hello, I'm a new 02 OB wagon owner. I have spent some time on this site reading up on general issues. I'm impressed w/ the knowledge base and willingness of people to help. I would like to wade in w/ a couple questions of my own. I would like to replace my stereo/CD player w/ a 6 CD unit. Some of the posts I've read indicate this should be straight forward. What I didn't see was any information on removing the woodgrain trim around the stereo. Does anyone have any information on that? Second question deals w/ changing the oil. The car didn't come w/ an owners manual so I am in the process of getting one (EBay). Access to the drain plug looks easy. Access to the filter doesn't. There's a plastic pan w/ an access hole it that appears you need to get the wrench thru. Does the entire plastic assembly need to come off? Any tips/tricks? Thanks
