Look the German and Slovenian legacys are the same. We will have a subaru meeting tomorrow and i can ask a little bit for the parts. It will probably be a lot cheaper buying used here than in the UK. If you are interested send me a PM. Just let me know what are all the parts that you need.
Over and out (its midnight here and i have a lot of studying to do tomorrow).
Good night to you all.

This is an old discussion, but I started it and wanted to let any one know that the washers have been installed and they work perfectly. This Monday I will try to upload photos of the squirters in action. The Euro washer tank hold a gallon of fluid, and the washers pretty much pressure wash the headlights.

I now have a photo of the installed washers; all I have to do now is figure out how to upload them.

I did manage to find a spare system (washer tank, hoses, dash switch and nozzles) that are now my spare parts, just in case and I will try to take a photo of them showing both pumps for the windshield and headlights.
It's wired directly to the battery with a 15A fuse and a relay and as long as the dash switch is being pushed, the pump runs. European setup has a "timer" that shuts off pump after 2 seconds even if the dash switch is being pushed. The switch is installed in my old Height Control switch location, next to the wiper controls (seemed a logical location) European dash switch is installed in empty cavity below defroster and cruise control switches (now you know what goes down there, next to fog light switch)
Corner lamp shown is JDM turnsignal lens (very hard to find) and I would be interested in buying a spare set. Not shown in the picture is matching JDM foglights that go below the bumper.

The headlight washer system is only available on European cars. The parts can not be purchased new or used in North America.

Purchasing the parts from Europe is going to take some legwork. Literally. I have a friend in Europe who pulled the entire system from a junkyard. All European Legacy have them except the 3rd generation (1999-2003). First and Second generation have a separate switch mounted on the dash that activates the system, and I haven't seen the Fourth generation switch (2004-2009).
I would try Googling junkyards (sometimes called "breaking yards" in the UK) in Europe. Calling Subaru dealerships in the UK also works, but buying the parts new could get very very expensive, especially in the UK. European dealerships might have phone numbers for junkyards in their areas.
I will try to take photos of the tank, hoses (1 inch diameter hose that runs from the tank, then inside the bumper, joined with a splitter inside the bumper) and washer nozzles, if anyone is interested.
What year of Lego do you have?

Do you have JDM foglights that go below the bumper where turnsignals currently are?

I have a set of JDM foglights that I can't use. I'm assuming that you have wired your turnsignals and your parking lights to the EDM corner lenses right?
Any pictures of your car? Inside and outside?

Not yet, but they are the retangular foglights that were installed on the 1989-1991 JDM GT sedan and wagon and the 1989-1991 JDM RS sedan.
If you want to PM me, I can send you a photo of the EDM combined duty washer tank for the windshield and the headlights.
