Spent all of Friday and part of Saturday installing it and the various add-ons it came with.

I even fixed the broken plastic tabs for the radio cage mount while it was all out.

I pulled a few things out of my RS to get at the wiring harness for the Version 6 motor swap:



I am never doing this again

Thanks! It's a Pioneer SPH-DA100. So far I'm loving it! A little bit of a hassle because without a smart phone attached it's basically just an AM/FM radio, but I can use Netflix or anything that my iPhone can do while it's plugged in.



There are a few units that do "advanced app mode" and have other features built in, but this was the cheapest way to do advanced app mode and get the 7" touch screen

Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?

Got it back on the road. Had a cam sensor take a **** when I was out playing in the snow a little over a week ago. Ordered a sensor for a 99 Legacy/Impreza/Outback. Looked just like the early 90's model ones and was cheaper, but it is not plug and play. overall it is larger then svx one. According to my research the 95ish Impreza sensor works. That was my bad for going cheap and overlooking some details.
I made it work however. There was a metal sleeve over the sensor that can be removed so I did that so it would fit in the svx. Also the mounting hole doesn't line up, so I had to drill that some to make it work. Also shave off some plastic to get the mounting hole to line up. Was a success in the end. Worth it to not buy a new svx one.

Was the sensor black or brown?

Both had black plastic.

Cleaned the garage and consolidated all those random pieces that I should some day get around to putting back on the car. The year is young.
