Review on Cargo Subaru Impreza Wagon Crosstrek by Samuel Blakeley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Bad hardware, DO NOT DRILL 1/2 " HOLES

Nets good, hardware bad. DO NOT FOLLOW SELLER'S INSTRUCTIONS IN LITERATURE. These instructions are for genuine Subaru mushroom clips. Those offered here are cheap rip offs. I drilled the first side to a 1/2" hole per the listing instructions. No matter what I did, I couldn't tighten the clamp. 1/2 inch is too big. For the other side, I started small and worked up to a hole size where the mushroom clip would fit snugly when inserted, but I still couldn't tighten the mushroom clip enough that it wouldn't pull out easily. My only option was to go to your local Subaru and buy $12 OEM clamps. The Subaru clamps also worked great in a 1/2" hole (but I would recommend using a 7/16" drill bit). Subaru OEM number F551SAN010. Buy them and save yourself the headache.

Pros
  • Lots of good vibes
Cons
  • Secret
