This is one of the easier jobs that you will find. There are only four wires and they are all the same length. Just remove them one at a time and put the new one on in the same place. You may need a leverage tool to help pull the old ones out, and use the grease supplied with the new ones on the boots of the wires to help them seal and to make them easier to remove next time. Read and follow the instructions on the box. If they tell you anything different from what I have told you here, do that. Good luck! --Ken

It depends on the year as the older Foresters had different lengths - not sure about the more current models. Do them ONE @ A TIME, and compare the new wire length w/the old wire to ensure the correct wire is used.
