right click/save as for future reference.

 

be sure to let me know how it works! :popcorn:\

 

nice work have a drink! :drunk:

Why didn't you save the fuel pump and ignition relay's? It's easier to just wire power to them and then route the fuel pump power wire to the fuel pump via the existing rear harness.

OK sounds good maybe on the next one, like I said this is the only one Ive done, what you say makes sense

Indeed. I went overboard with the first harness I stripped also.

 

You can also leave all the dealer diagnostic connectors - just in case you get the opportunity to use the Subaru Select Monitor, etc.

Looks to be OBD II, and I think I see the OBD II port. Make sure the red/black wire(s?) to it has 12v Batt+.

 

Although, if the IG. relay is gone, may need to check that all item supposed to be powered actually get power when you wire it up. the big yellow wire (Batt+)in particular feeds power to lots of stuff before it goes to the relay, so things like the Transistor, IAC, Vent solenoid, etc... may not be in the loop still.

Sure - but even the OBD-II cars have the SSM port and the D-check connectors, etc. For full diagnostic capability you might as well leave them. There are SSM's in the wild - Eulogious has one.
