Looked at these but I think the fit will be rubbish and its only held by 3m as opposed to factory Subaru clips/screws and tape and would be a perfect Fitment

I've got them and they are fine. Fitment is 99%


Thanks Simon found some second hand ones but I assume wagon and sedan differ?

Are yours just stuck on with 3m?

Yeah, sedan and wagon weather shields do differ mate.

Yeah, just the supplied 3M tape and believe me, its very strong tape.

This is a sedan, but here are the brackets.

Didn't take me 20 minutes, more like an hour plus. :oops: That being said, the weathershields look awesome and stop rain getting in your car when you open the doors on a rainy day. Love 'em.

<EDIT: Word change. Nothing offensive>.

I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!

Cheers mate is that an installation pic ? So when finished product can you see any screws or brackets ?

Do you need to drill ?

Hardest part is pushing the door seal back up. Having said that, it's not very hard at all. Clips are visible if looking up under the shield... obviously. $185 for genuine wagon shields.
