I agree that there seems to be more room than in the STi. Most times people think you have to drop, pull the motor to do the plugs on Subarus, but I could do all four in my STi with just a flex head ratchet and an extension. Pull a few things out of the way and all 4 can be swapped in under 30 minutes. It isn't as bad as it seems and a Subaru mechanic worth his weight shouldn't have too much trouble and then the price should be reasonable. Or get a DIY and do it in the Autozone parking lot since it doesn't take so long. Lol
