Default DISCONTINUED SUBARU WIRING HARNESS

Hi Guys, So I reached out to the local Subaru dealership and they, in turn, reached out to Subaru Japan to purchase a Wiring Harness for my Subaru Impreza WRX. Unfortunately, this part has been discontinued and Subaru says they can't supply it. Could anybody help me find one? Local car breakers don't have it either. It's a Bulkhead Harness, I have attached a diagram of what I'm looking for and my vehicle details below:
Make: Subaru
Model: Impreza WRX
Year: 2007
VIN #: GDA-021127
Attached Files
File Type: pdf
Harness-Bulkhead.pdf (160.4 KB, 0 views)

Basically you are looking for the complete main wiring harness for a 2007 JDM (Revision G) WRX with Sport shift.

Part number 81401FE585 (Harness - Bulkhead)

Very doubtful to find a completely compatible one in the UK.

He tried and tried and gave up. Figured I'll just replace everything. I've emailed 1 breaker I know in Japan, I think I know another but I don't know so many.

Even if you find one, replacing the main loom would be a mammoth task as it spans the bulkhead into the engine bay





There is also the instument loom


and the AT transmission loom


I'd be looking for a new auto electrician although without the proper JDM wiring diagrams it's probably not easy.

I tried 3 auto-electricians all of whom gave up. I figured if this is what it takes then I'll just have to get it done.

Bit of a stretch from Chesterfield to Johannesburg SA especially as he doesn't know what the problem actually is................

Have you read the other thread? https://www.scoobynet.com/lighting-a...o-hawkeye.html

Loom replacement to me seems overkill, but each to there own.
