Direct wire Beltronics\ Escort install 2009 Subaru WRX

I am bound to get a speeding ticket! so my parents hooked me up with a Beltronics 995 and a direct wire kit for my Birthday. Thank you! I googled a bit and found this excellent How To.
I don't need to rewrite the how to so here are a few pics. I did have the direct wire kit but you could just use a RJ11phone cable and a 2A inline fuse from Radio Shack. I tried to use the "vampire" clip that came with the kit but it did not make a good connection and caused a short. In the end I just stripped the homelink harness and soldered the connections. If you decide to solder the use a tarp or an old blanket to catch any solder that may fall and potentially damage you interior.
