Wotcha and welcome - I am also a fellow newbie to Subarus but am firmly hooked, they can take many of your hard earned readies particularly when you browse some of the aftermaket offerings such as Prodrive - all very tempting, but very worth it!!

Sounds like you have exhausted all of the possibilities I would suggest - another member had more success with the Canadian breakers as they sell considerably more over there...

There you go then - should be no problem up to your headlights :P

Yup - we do like pics :)

Wotcha and welcome - sounds like a great project thread coming up dont forget to take loads of pictures and share ;)

Wotcha and welcome - great to have another lady owner driver onboard

hope you get a buyer - we had to sacrifice our motorbikes as deposit for first house so got an idea what you are dealing with - it wont be forever though

Great turnout there that drag slag looks a beast - clean engine bay, just shows how much you can ditch in pursuit of weight loss, including the inner wheel arches :P

ah yes so you have - thats me skim reading again

that sounds like an earth to me - dodgy connection possibly where the sockets have been rattled in their mounts

useful to have !

rust under rear wheel arches as there is a lip which holds all the crud

Wotcha and welcome and if you do decide to make some changes here is some very nice food for thought http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/1842-newbie-saying-hello-and-pics/

Wotcha and welcome!! - didnt know the new models had a name... !Removed! stinkeye what are you loike?? :P

ECUTek remap and a different head unit

It is possible - quite a few kits out there some to go inside rear window some can go externally http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Rear-View-Camera-Waterproof-Backup-License-Plate-Reversing-Parking-Sensor-/271202049220?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item3f24e6dcc4 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WIRELESS-CAR-REAR-VIEW-KIT-7-LCD-MIRROR-MONITOR-IR-REVERSING-CAMERA-UK-/230870127086?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item35c0ee91ee

I dont know last car she named Melissa - dont know where it came from but I dare say the great technicoloured deity has quite an influence on young minds ;)

named by my 6 yr old the scooby is Daphne and the black Vito van we have is Fi-Fi :P

It can be an expensive hobby - in last couple of years I have just purchased my first set of all in one leathers - had 20 years of leather jackets and jeans - not good

Yes they are worth it - as Gambit says just check for cracks etc

nitemare sorry to hear that :(

my 2p - I think you would be better using your old heads as it will match with the existing loom / sensors etc and wont confuse the ECU
