Its in the under dash (right side) evaporator housing for the A/C system. It mounted on the outside case so access is fairly simple. Removal of two screws and an electrical connector is all it takes. You may have to remove glove box to see it for the first time. Air movement in that housing helps keep that resistor pack cooled down...They can get fairly hot so be careful.

Let's see if we can make life a little easier for you:
Remove the glove box. Disconnect the blower resistor electrical connector. Remove the screws and remove the resistor assembly from the blower motor housing. Reverse procedure to install.

It is way under the dash behind the glove box.

Do this on the weekend ; )
You have to remove the complete dash to do this job.
Handbrake console.
Gear lever console, (radio/ashtray etc)
Lower driver side & passenger side.
Glove box.
Both side panels.
All these parts of the dash need to be removed near that order so you can see the hidden bolts/screws.

I've heard guys force matrix in and removing less, because they use soft pipes for matrix... but... not my thing.

yes that is correct, remove glovebox , metal bracket in front ( mark which way round this bracket goes it will go back wrong and glove box wont fit ) , unplug electrical plug from heater motor, unscrew 3 bolts/screws from motor replace in reverse..30 min tops..

Look for the option code sticker in the glove box and look up the codes on the net or call the subaru dealer and ask them what the opton codes are on your lagacy. Good luck.

fifty50370: The cabin air filter is located behind the glove box.
Open the glove box and when you lower it, you will notice it is supported on both sides by what look like strings. You can remove these (at the box) and allow the box to flip down. Look straight in and you will see a long black or grayish plastic panel with tabs at the top and bottoms on each end. You should be able to pinch these tabs a little and pull back on the panel. The panel will come off in your hands. Behind the panel is the filter. Just pull the filter out.
NOTE: as you are removing the filter, pay attention to the direction the filter is in. There is a top and a bottom. Reassemble in the reverse order.
VIOLA! Your filter has been replaced!

I had the same problem and Ia m working to resolve it.
You need to remove the blover under the glove box it's very easy to remove. 1) remove the glove box, 2) the metalic suport that it's hold by 4 screws and finally remove the 3 screws that holds the blower. Take it off and remove the coverplate of the motor ( 2 screws) and
check the brushes. In my case they were worn out. So you need to buy a new motor with the blower aprox $50 or try to replace the brushes.

hello first thing to check is were the box mounts at the bottom of the door hinge assembly undo the screws you should be able to lift the door enough to release the lock inside goodluck
