Wink Subaru parts price drop?

Picked up a mag in the Barber's today, can't recall the name possibly What Car. Small blurb on Subaru dropping parts prices on Legacy, Impreza, Forester by upto 56%

Anyone confirm?

True enough, not arm and a leg anymore, (just a leg), varies on the parts though, know items are
plugs
cambelts
tensioners
filters

seems to be stuff which gets changed at services, and the price reduction varies.

Its also the fact that Subaru see a huge drain because of After Market parts,

so they drop the prices on parts, now if they could get dealers /garages to drop the prices for Services.. that would be good!
