Scrw em, just take the bulb out and replace it with an LED,
I happen to like Subarus, I have the carcasses of three of them in my yard, but I do not drive them anymore in Alaska as they are too low to the ground and a moose hit would nearly decapitate the driver, better to have a higher more boxy front end.
In the near future I suspect many recalls will involve the placement of tracking devices or mileage monitors. Think of those gas and electric meters that transmit your usage.
Now I used to be a dealership mechanic and we were often told to create some minor fixit situation on recalled vehicles when they showed up to generate revenue.
The current 4th generation Outback has 8.5" ground clearance stock from the factory. Not bad.
