Manky? Haha! Are you referring to the dust particles picked up with the hi def camera and flash that aren't really noticeable to the naked eye? Photo much?

Eat in my car? Never!

Your comment did get me in there with my compressor though! That little fine dust wouldn't even blow out. Had to take the shift boot up and wipe it with a microfiber cloth.

...But thanks.

Oh, and to stay on topic... I did install a Diode Dynamics Always-On today

Ok, I want to get one of those... my wife's Outback has the one touch lane change feature, why couldn't they give it to all Subaru's... was it a difficult install?

Thinking about finally getting this, too. I loved it when I had a 3 series a few years back. Is this module better than the TapTurn module by AutoWindow?

Cleaned her, taught the lady how to drive stick (or tried to), and took some pictures with the new set up.

Two things I love in one picture!

cleaned the calipers while they were off.
dropped PBM solid diff risers in.
Made it as far as getting the differential and subframe bolted back on the car, and solid rear diff risers bolted into place to be welded in tomorrow.

Is Diode Dynamics making their Always On Modules better these days? 2 years ago I tried two different ones and neither worked. One even split open at the seam. Anyone still having the same problem?

Maybe it was a bad batch? Did you have them replace it?
I had one of the first sets and never had any issues with it.

I bought mine used from a club member. Installed easily and works perfectly.

Not at all, plug and play. I took off the bottom dash piece under the steering wheel to make it easier to get to. 15 minutes top to install.

I got a refund from them. I think I will order one and give it another try. Thanks for your responses. It was helpful.

Replaced sparkplugs today @ 111k miles. It wasn't really all that bad. We didn't jack up the engine. Just removed the injector cover and strut tower bracing from driver's side. The hoses were a pain to get around, but my friend has small hands.

I think that's the most miles I've heard of on an 86! 2013 MY?
