I have a spare replacement remote. I purchased 4 of them off Ebay and only used 2 so far. $25 shipped. I put one of these in on a 96 GT and it needed the additional Driver's door actuator installed. The car did not come with the electric door lock on the drivers door. You might want to check under your door panel and see if that is the case.

The better halfs cam sensor is going out. I'm in Milwaukkee but will be heading to Madison this afternoon. If you have a spare please let me know. 98 Outback with a 95 2.2 so it has the cam sensor that has the connector right at the sensor. Got one from a friends Subaru so I'm back on the road, Thanks!

The brother better half has a 97 Impreza OBS. The Drivers door had manual lock. When opened with the key, or inner lock lever, it opens and closed all 4 door locks. Has anyone ever put a auto lock assy from a Legacy or newer Impreza in one to do the keyless entry. I just installed a keyless entry on a 96 Legacy, which had the same setup, but it required a lock actuator which hooked to the lock rod on the drivers door. Thanks Larry

car not starting

Bad Gas, gas goes south when it sits, you also get water in the gas. How long did it sit? Lifters drain oil if they sit for a long time! Could have a valve that is stuck open from sitting! Low battery does funny things to the starting systems! Mice chew through wires when the nest. Charge it, try some starter fluid in the intake. -
FogLightKing on EBay sells a 5" Fog Light that will work in the outback. I ordered the one listed and it showed up as a 4" light which was to small for me. I emailed them back and they said no problem, we have a 5" LED Foglight. I got them today and bolted one up to a spare bracket I had. I had to bend or cut the corner of the new bracket but other than that its straight forward. I also found that if you save the old bulb, you can cut it back to just the connector and there are the two connectors tabs which you can connect the new fog light to and seal up. That way you can keep the stock Subaru Wiring. I have not installed it yet, but it looks like a good fit. $60 for a set.

Is it bad?

Year and make? I've never seen the under body supports pull away from the floor pan. Strange -
Burp it. Get the front of the car as high as possible, squeeze the top radiator hose over and over until no bubbles come out at the radiator fill port. Start the car and do it all over again, until it's bubble free. Put the cap on and let it come up to temp. Shut off the engine and let it cool, the engine should draw coolant in from the overflow bottle.

I don't know that there is a cheap and good route. This is a bad area with at least 3 different body panels welded together. I've cut off some sections from cars I've sent to the crusher, how big of an area are you talking? Anyway you look at it, getting a body shop to do quality work will not be cheap.
