98 Legacy GT 2.5, 105K. Just got back from having my Airbag code read, and they said the problem is the clockspring. Horn, and Cruse is affected by this too. They qouted me $508 to fix it, part alone is $250 dealer said. Anyone know where I can get this cheaper? Maybe a used one? Can I fix the old one? And what years will work if I can find someone on this board parting out a subaru? Im not paying the dealer 300 in labor just to pull the steering wheel either. Thanks

I had to replace mine ('97 Outback), just followed the instructions in the Haynes manual. $50 part at the junk yard, took about an hour to put in. I'd say 96-99 would work...have you checked http://www.car-part.com?

 

p.s. You can't fix the broken one...

Thanks, they have a ton of these, wish I heard about this website sooner. Thanks, the factory service manual shows this to be a pretty simple job. Thanks again.

ive got one from a 93/94 leg, should be the same. 12.75 plus 4.85 ship

I just ordered one today from a junk yard, if its not the right part I will look into this. However, the clockspring and the combination switch is one piece on this car. You can't easliy seperate the combination switch from the roll connector (clockspring). So is this what you have?
