Yes, it will fit. It's just a TPMS sensor. Make sure the tire shop has the machine (tire changer) that is meant for those sensors otherwise they will be destroyed.
My questions, when dealing with TPMS sensors for a Subaru, were about the battery longevity and if the just the battery can be replaced.
They last about 5 years or more if you're lucky and the whole sensor has to be replaced (molded plastic with battery, a lot of time, to dig out the battery, has to be spent).
So, change out the TPMS senors whenever fresh tires are installed which IS ABOUT 5 years.
We're waiting for the TPMS sensor light on the dashboard of the families SUBARU to burn out since we're using non-TPMS wheels/tires for winter.
Since it is probably an LED light it will ALWAYS BE THERE.
Cheers!
