Hey,  My girlfriend informed me that her bun warmers (i.e. seat
heater) wasn't working today.  I was wondering if somebody could tell
me with out me poking around outside, it's quite cold, and i'd just go
out and swap it. Where that fuse located?
Thanks for the knowledge....

You've mentioned, girlfriend, buns, and poking around outside within
two sentences.    Good times.

My outback's fuse box is in the driver's side, inside the vehicle just
inside the door, inches above teh floormat and on the left portion fo
the area near where your feet rest on teh floormat.   Slide the
plastic cover tot he right and it comes completely off, revealing
fuses inside.  

Exactly which fuse you need will be perhaps in the owner's manual.

If the fuse is blown, however,   one should really look into why.

Third one in the top row, I think. 20A. It also controls the lighter sockets
and side mirror heaters. I've replaced this one about ten times since last
spring.

Mine blows intermittantly, and I have zero idea why. Short in the wiring
somewhere, but I can't pin down a symptom or reason it blows. I've given up,
and just left it until the warm weather returns.

I think the reason it blew, was that the ac/dc inverter was left
plugged into the cig lighter which, upon futher investigation (and
lack of phone charging) was determined not working either...
THanks for the tip.  My girlfriends buns thank you too.
