Wheel bearing and fog light question on 99 Impreza L


Recommended Posts

I had this in my last post about my trip meter but since that was fixed I thought I'd start a new thread.

 

I have a bad rear bearing on my 99 Impreza with rear drum brakes and no ABS. I remember reading somewhere that I can install a Legacy hub onto my car since the legacy used better bearings. What year Legacy should I pull a hub from and did the legacys even come with drum brakes.

 

Also by any chance does anyone have a installation/wiring diagram for the fog lights. I have a set of fogs to install they are the square/rectangle ones from a 97-98 impreza I think. I bought them from Subaru a long time ago but cant find the instructions as I need them to wire the harness into my car. Since I am installing them on a 99 impreza is there any chance that my car is prewired for them?

 

Thanks in advance

Yeah I have the wiring harness but I think the harness I have is from an earlier set of fogs that Subaru put on the Impreza, the larger ones with the rounded edge, I need to know if I can make this harness work or if someone has a wiring diagram or install info for 99 impreza fogs.

have you been able to install your fogs? i have a 99 L as well and am in the same situation. is the 99L pre-wired for fogs? i have the fog switch installed but i'm having a hard time finding the fog light plug under the hood. i've found a "T" plug behind the DS headlight w/ one balck and one white/blk stripe wire. however, no juice when the fog switch is on. i'd hate to splice into the headlight harness. any help would be much appreciated. thanks.

I couldnt manage to see any wires under the hood near the fog lights, and there arent any pre wired harnesses near the fog light holes so im assuming that they arent pre wired but im not sure.....Does anybody know for sure if the 99 Impreza is prewired for fog lights? The reason why I thought that it possibly could be is that there are 2 connectors at the switch area on the drivers side, I assumed one was for fogs and the other was for cruise but I don't know. Can anyone verify this and if it is prewired what all do we need to know as far as fuses, wiring and relays to get these things hooked up?

as far as i've found out, in the 99 imp L, the grey plug is the fog, the brown plug is the cruise.

i still need to find out if the 99 impL is pre-wired. there is an open T plug behind the DS headlight, but i don't know what it's for. according to the subie 'stealer', there is a harness that's part of the "fog light assy" from the DS headlight down to the fog lights. i haven't been able to find in online or from any salvage places i've called. there isn't a separate part # for the one harness. there is only one part# for the whole damn assy (according to the part guy) which is around $400. that includes everything from the lights, harness, switch, etc. anyone with any info would be most helpful. thanks

Im really leaning towards the car NOT being pre wired for fogs, I've desperately been trying to get information regarding these things, I have the lights already installed on my car but I need to know how to wire them. I have a harness but I think its from a 95 Impreza's fogs and the car it came off of was wired totally differenly than the 99. Anyone out there know anything about these?

 

Also does anyone know what year Legacy had drum brakes in the rear and is compatible with my impreza?

 

Thanks
