Don't think there is too much difference between the sound systems in the equivalent liberty and outbacks so def have a look on Liberty.ASN .

Well it's a sad day for me guys. The Brumby is off to his new owner this arvo. Luckily he seems like a good old bloke so it will get looked after but still I learnt most of what I know about cars from working on it and from reading all your posts. I'll still be floating around in the background here...

If I recall, that was all that held mine on. The threaded rod connected to the chassis via some bolts. Few bolts to undo should be easy.

You can use a normal bank account and link it, then transfer back and forth. I used to use it linked to a normal account before I got a master card.

I thought it did too. But I couldn't find where it came off of.
There is a inlet to the air cleaner above the distributor that has been blanked off. Maybe it has been hooked up wrong for awhile.

Second on checking the ignition switch. Happened to me and it did the same as you describe, would randomly stop then start when i turned it back on or even an hour or so later. Made me look quite dumb to the tow truck driver at one point.

I'm sure there was another weird reason for the resistor. Like the high beam warning light not turning off or something. Can't remember where I read it.

Shallow mount Pioneer sub FTW. I only have a tiny box for mine and it thumps hard if I ever wanted it to. Set it right and it's golden in the Brumby.
