Defrost only works when I don't need it.

Wwhere did you measure that, at the manifold or the output of the vac resivoir? -
God i havent seen those Pyramid speakers since college, way back. I forgot about those, they actually had decent sound.
-
Thats the idea Otherwise I have to mount speakers in the cargo area which would choke them off. There is no place else to mount speakers anywhere, and they are not referenced anywhere in the FSM.

Thats why I want something verry boring and blah. We really dont have a stereo problem here in NY anymore, but I dont want to tempt fate.

Oh I would, but I think your missing the point sort of. If I could find those housings, I would gut them, it is the housing (box) that would be of huge help. I could care less if they were empty.

I can't seem to find them in the USA, but that is what I was hoping to find.

Today Justy (the Justy) had a am/fm/wb/cd player installed. If it had a black face it would look right at home, but it does not . Oddly it sounded great on the original front speakers. Now I am looking for rear speakers. This being a 1989 the package tray is not a lot to talk about. I don't want to cut holes in the plastic package tray. The odd thing, well normal for a car of that time, it is wired for rear speakers but no place to mount them anywhere. Does anyone make small on-deck speakers anymore. I see pioneer has some 3 way speakers, but two of them I think would bridge the width of the car

Actually it is just up to the whim of the designer (boss). Though it has become more standard that if there is a foot brake it is in an automatic today and a pull up handle between the seats norm for a manual. I think (not sure) that the pull out handle from under the dash has gone the way of the doo-doo. There was a time when the foot parking brake could be in a manual or auto, those made for fun hill starts.

Slghtly off topic, i have a 1951general repair manual (looks like a really thick pocket bible). Only recently has there been truly new things that have not been in cars before, but it is interesting and sometimes amazing how they made things work (vac assisted clucth, self leveling using torsion bars). You look at it and wonder how did they make this stuff last, then realize if a car hit 60,000 miles in one peice it was lucky.

For even back then thats a pretty good price for the luxury group. In the Justy they zapped the owner for over 200 bucks for a stereo radio.

I'm surprised they didnt try to wiggle out of it as "unauthorized driver" Technically the subaru hand brake is an emergency brake, as opposed to a parking brake. A Parking brake uses the existing service brake hardware (shoes/pads what not) to hold the car. An emergency brake has it's own brake shoes/pads/springs etc. When hyd brakes first came out, they were not all that trusted so in the drum you would have service brake shoes and emergency brake shoes. Over time the terms have become universally mixed up. Which reminds me I have to look at why mine doesnt work.

i don't recall but it looks like a little disk sometimes, lmagine 4 quarters stacked together. Best is to just follow the line between the resevoir and wherever the hose goes to. -
hehe i saw that bbut subaru doors are so thin
