Weather Shields - Monsoons Installation

by **DJC** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 7:14 pm

Hey Guys,

Just scored myself a set of Subaru slimline weather shields for my MY04 GT sedan.
Looking to see if anyone has these on their ride and if i could get a pick of where it lines up both front and rear? The fold doesn't lineup with the fold in the window, so i want to make sure i'm sticking them down in the right place.

Has anyone in Sydney installed these on their sedan?

Cheers

I have them on my wagon. Did you get instructions? I'll see if I kept mine but not sure of your luck. There are measurements on the instructions but the end closest to the bonnet sort of lines up with the run of the rear view mirrors. You'll also need to know where the clips attach and that requires taking the seals off, not hard but can be fiiddly to put back on - mind you I managed and I am not normally known for having the patience to do these things. Will check tomorrow and take some pics after work if you don't get other responses before then.

Ok, decided not to be a slacker...

Before I got them I thought damm I hate water dripping in and they dont look too bad on other cars... it took me a loooong time deciding to buy and then thinking whether to install. Finally i got the shits with dripping water and had them on.

But when they were on my own car, certain angles did not appeal to my eye so I had them ripped off asap. expensive decision. :roll:

Ahh excellent Kevlar GT! Kudos to you.

I got mine on the cheap so i didn't get any instructions no.

If you or anyone else has them handy, i'd appreciate a copy. I want to do them right the first time, unlike other previous mods on other cars in the past.... :wink:

yeah, I'm not too sure I have liked the look of the weather strips on any of the cars I have seen them on either
