A few days ago, I asked for some help on how to replace the rear wiper motor
on a subaru impreza wagon. Luckily, I bumbled my way through the repair (the
most difficult parts being when parts that should come apart don't because
of either a screw I missed or simply because they're stuck. Tough to get the
nerve to apply force when you don't know conclusively that you got all the
bolts out). I would be happy to help anyone else who needs to make this
simple repair.
What I really could have used was a repair manual. I've heard Hayne's
manuals are junk, though I would have even taken that. The most recent
subaru repair guide I can find is for circa 1990s subarus. Are there any for
2000s and newer?

You can buy access for a limited time period and download the whole
manual for something like $20.

Printed Subaru manuals are between $20-40 if you don't like to
spare your printer. I found "Body" and "Chassis" sections useful
for info on tearing the inside panels out and supension bits, etc.
Electrical might be useful at times also.
Haynes is not bad. Not nearly as detailed but for common problems it's
typically ok.
I probably did not do anything complex enough to run into its
limitations.
