Whereabouts in London are you - Rich at FBTuning could possibly help, or Neil at Slowboy Racing

Why not ask one of the breakers if they will sell you a obd socket and small amount of loom, then repair your own, the wires are colour coded so shouldn't be that difficult.

The ODB socket that's been grafted in (badly) and pictured in your other thread isn't the original Subaru one.

I'm sure I could fix it for you if required.

Funnily enough thats exactly what I have done. Im not too confident in doing this and I dont want to mess it up. Is it really that simple.
