    Hi I have a SG 04 Forester XT and I need some floor mats. I was curious of which model Subarus might use the same floor mats as Forester mats are harder to find used than Impreza mats. Someone in my area has 15-17 WRX weathertech mats for a decent price. Think they would fit??

    '03 Forester xs I took off the interior door panel hoping something was just disconnected or stuck, but appears the cable on the interior handle has broken. I was able to pull it out completely (still attached to handle end....broken at other end). Ive looked for a manual for this, but failing...

    I've done a lot of work to eliminate the odor from two years of mouse residency in an otherwise very good '07 X Premium, but it's still rank. I'm going to pull out the entire interior (including carpet and headliner) to clean the hard parts and replace the soft parts. I know it's put together...

    I've got a (technically it's the Boss') 2011 Forester X. Not real optioned out, but needing to do a engine rebuild/swap due to headgasket/oil consumption issues. I'm eyeballing a totaled XT with low mileage and a few other higher trim models coming up for auction on Copart. I understand the...

    Has anyone gotten their windshield replaced and now have issues with their interior A-pillar trim? I recently got a crack in my windshield (only 2k miles on my car...) and had to get the windshield replaced. I confirmed with Safelite that I would get an OEM windshield. I go in to pickup my car...

    I purchased the footwell light kit for my 2020 Forester direct from Subaru. Had the dealer install it yesterday, and when I checked the lights after dark, only the driver side footwell is illuminated. Does the kit provide lighting for both sides, or does another kit have to be purchased for the...

    I've been testing different OBD-II monitors on my 04. I am confident that the one I have now will work, but I cannot test it as the wire comes off the side and there is a little plastic piece preventing from fitting into the port. So, I need to remove the OBD-II port housing and need to find out...

    I recently bought my '05 FXT and the drivers side seat heater does not work. The passenger side works perfectly though. Does anyone have a fix for this? Thanks in advance!

    First post here. I've got a 2001 Forester I've had for a couple years now. Plenty of miles and love. I've finally decided to install an audio system. I'm currently planning to convert the rear cushion into a fiberglass enclosure that will still function as a seat. I want to put two JL W3 10"...

    Hey FIRST POST! So sorry if this is the completely wrong place... But I purchased a used Forester a few months ago (pretty much like new) and already have noticed a leak that happens every time it rains significantly... Any ways to solve/figure out the source or common problems/fixes? ANYTHING...

    So I have a 2009 Subaru forester, silver, where the interior is gray. The dash lights are all blue, and Im going to be installing an aftermarket radio. But what bothers me is the heat and air controls are red. Who decides to put 2 different color lights in the car. Also the little storage area...

  19. Interior and Electronics
    Well folks, today the boredom of being stuck at home set in. I was originally running wire for new speakers, and noticed some rust under the carpet in the drivers foot well. Since I already had half the interior apart for the wiring, and have nothing but time at the moment anyways, I decided to...
