Just buy the individual plugs you need.

Even cheaper.

Double check to make sure the keying notches are correct for the TGV plug.

And a how-to video for de-pinning them.

I've gotten you from $500 to ~$25. :p

For pins that big you can use a small flathead screwdriver. Go to your local dollar store and get an eyeglass repair kit. Or Harbor Freight's bargain bin for a small set of tiny screwdrivers.

Got the engine pretty much ready to install today. I'm not sure when I'll have a day to dedicate to getting it installed though.

I would swing by your local PNP and get those harnesses in OEM condition. Then just de-pin them and reassemble in the good OEM housings.

Is those clips specific only to WRX's, or would any Subaru from that timeline share some of those?

Yeah I really want their harness replacement, but just want the car running right now. I can pull the intake manifold in like 30-40 mins now so if I do it in the future it won't be to terrible.
