Why would Subaru deliberately run the antenna wire under the driver side carpet right around the gas pedal heel area. There is even a plastic L shaped clip that curves it around the heel area. They could have easily ran it across the lower dash instead. 2005 outback.

Would have never even imagined my antenna was right under my heal. Weird. How do you know it is there?

Those 05 outbacks are a pain to work on anything to do with the dash, try pulling your glove box off lol you'll end up pulling most of you center console in the process. I don't know what they made these so hard to work on.

Still doubt that the antenna is in the floor board. I'm going with: not.

It wouldn't surprise me, the older ones were like that as well.
