2025 Rear Hatch Light

[Ohiogal]

Does anyone have any suggestions where to find the correct rear hatch light? I ordered one off Amazon, its a Subaru part for sure, but the connector is a 3 prong and not a 4, so it does not fit my car. I don't know if the Limited trim makes a difference on this?

I need to find a solution for this as I do need to be able to see in the back at night occasionally.

I have a 2025 Crosstrek Limited and purchased this from Amazon in January of this year. Perfect fit. I think I had to search just a bit to find the connector but it was plug and play.

I've perused YouTube for ideas for our '22 Crosstrek. Just too damn dark back there. Most of the aftermarket stuff requires some ability to do automotive wiring and removing panels, etc., which I don't want to try just yet. For now I keep a couple of bright LED flash lights back there. The local dealer is not really interested in little things.

Why not just put a lithim flashlight back there clipped to the trim.

Exactly. I had hoped to use a magnetic one, but too much damn plastic back there! Velcro it is.

Velcro or a clip.

I have a 2025 Crosstrek Sport and was looking at adding a tailgate light. However, when I popped the trim panel, I could not find a wiring harness connector with an open connector of any kind, like is shown in the videos and photos. Any idea why it would not be there?

I had to really look but it is there. It's taped to another harness.

I can see only one connector that it might be but it is secured to a metal plate with a plastic anchor that I cannot release, It faces away from me so I can't be sure it is unused. I have tried to take a photo of it (see below). Help? Thanks!

This is the wire and my light.
