Another essential thing (it is something control by the wiring on the passenger side, I have lost track of what went out, this is the 5th repair in my 9 years of ownership) went out before the end of summer. So rather than fixing potentially more broken wires in the cold, I fixed them before fall/winter hits. Since I am there already, I opened up the driver side and discovered the antenna itself was fine (which i have fixed before), but there are two+ ground wires that were broken. As soon as the ground wires were fixed, receptions to AM and FM are back to normal. Side note: my colleague was having problem with their recently acquired 2008 wagon. Car starts but could not shift out from P. It turns out the wire for top mount brake light was broken and prevent it from shifting out of P. I have experience with broken brake light that prevent Subaru from starting/shifting out of auto transmission. So, as soon as i told them to check the wiring, their mechanic fixed their problem in 15mins.

Aftermarket antenna? so you have reroute it somewhere else? i am interested to know how to improve radio reception.

My AM radio has no reception when the hatch is opened, even for a inch of gap.....

Thanks for posting these with pics. You basically rotate the bulb? You cut the lip of the bulb, so, it would fit the housing? Did you do both side or just driver side?

Yes it is....it is on as long as the hatch is open.

Thanks for the quick reply. But they don't have those badge I am looking for. I am looking for this type: http://www.scoobymania.com/shop/images/products/originals/pink_stars_badge.jpg or this http://www.z1auto.com/images/gcbadges%20002.jpg

Anyone know where can I get the Pink STi badge/emblem? what is the reasonable price for that? Is Subaru emblem has a universal size that fit all?
