Rear Hatch/Liftgate Button Replacement - 2012 Subaru Forester

The button to open the rear hatch on my 2012 Forester wore out and needed to be replaced. In this episode, we figure out how to replace it.

Shout out to Stephen Deeth who commented on the reverse camera wiring if your Forester has it:
"You’ll need to remove the harness for that [reverse camera] as well. Pulling it through the rubber grommet was very challenging, but some lube will help. Saves cutting any wires and reterminating."

The Subaru part # for the button harness is: 84931SC060
