I had been looking for a few years for an after market master control window switch for my Subaru Outback 2005 without success.
There were plently available for LHD but not RHD.
Just found and bought a new one for RHD on EBAY for less than $70. Fits 2004-2008. Works great.

Re: Outback master control window switch AVAILABLE
G’day Alex,
Welcome to the forum!
Why an aftermarket replacement unit? The original couldn’t be opened up and cleaned?
I’m guessing you wanted to avoid the same issue with a second hand OEM unit?
I’m glad you got something sorted that you’re happy with. Hopefully it goes the distance for you and that this may help out others in the same situation.
Cheers
Bennie

Hi
Yes I went through all the processes to open up the old switch and repair it but without success.
Next I bought a second hand one from a wreckers that also proved to be faulty.
A new one from the dealer was quoted at $384 which was too much for me so I tied for a long time to buy an after market one, again without success as only LHD being readily available. This was the first instance in nearly two years that I found a supplier with a RHD version.
Cheers Alex
