the rain guards and the window vents make such a huge difference in the summertime or if your out camping!!!1 keeps rain out and lets your car vent, its so nice
Thanks great video. Very happy with how it turned out. I might add the easiest way I found is to hold the two little clips as you place the rain guard and it makes it so much easier!
Great video. This is the first mod/thing I done to my Crosstrek when I got it. They are awesome for camping with screens to allow air in & not to forget during a rainstorm or winter.
I have a '21 Limited. I had a very reputable company here in Ohio do the front end Clear Bra on mine. They also did a half hood, half front fenders, mirrors and under the door handles x4. It was right at $1000, but it protects your front end from not only bugs, but rock chips also. A simple wet rag and 99% of your bug issues will wipe off with pretty much no effort. Every once in a while you might have to use a little pressure. This is my first vehicle I've had the Clear Bra done on. And I will do it on everything else I buy from here on out. Well worth the cost IMO.
The double sided tape versions are kind of a no-no for me. I've always use the "in channel" versions from Weather-Tech. Just one man's opinion of course.
The double side tape is a turn off but if installed well with the prep and heat the OEM ones would be just fine and my opinion and look more stylish without the abrupt break from front window to the rear window. I opted for the OEM for my Crosstrek-ready to install and (info here)since I looked at countless vids-finally saw Clearly-where the clips hook onto a little nub on the guard as well as the window frame.
Just bought a full set of WeatherTech mats for my 23 Crosstrek sport, couldn't find the rain guards on their website, so I bought the Subaru OEM and really dig em!
Watched 3 TH-cam videos on how to put these on and yours was by far the best! Good detail, camerawork, clear explanation,. Plus best humor too LOL

I just ordered these and can't wait to put them on!
Awesome video. I will be installing these myself. Subaru wants $190 for installation. The guards themselves were only $130.
Great video and fun presentation!
Bought my '22 Crosstrek with these dealer installed.......a must for foul-weather ventilation.
Have you noticed a decrease in wind noise when the windows are fully closed, or is it louder with the guards?
Notice any wind noise? With/without the back windows down.
Thank you. Since the guards do not come with the installation instruction so your video is very helpful.
Advising Sliding it to adjust once it is clipped on was bad advice. It scratched my window moulding
Subaru stopped making the factory hood protector a few years back. Cody, what do you think about Car Bra for the 2021 Crosstrek?

lol so should I really snag the guards I found in a Yard for my 07??
Snag them and send them to me 🤙🏼
Nice install, I want these for my Toyota, but I can't find any 😭
What toyota do you have!

I’m gonna buy these for my dog so he can sleep in the car with the window cracked and the rain won’t get inside. Hopefully
I am getting them for this exact reason. How did it work out for your dog and you? Also would you say the oem is just as good as the olm?
Your hat is nice!
Do those install tabs stay installed?
Great video did mine earlier today, if it weren't for this video I'm sure it would have ended badly.
Hey do you mean Ruge's in Ny in Rhinebeck? I'm 20 minutes from there. 2018 lifted Crosstrek here.
Yes I do! Awesome people there! Post up your Crosstrek and tag me on IG! I wanna see it 🤙🏼
I shouldn't have wasted my time with aftermarket ones, they didn't even have the clips to go under the door seal, my left side flew off within 2 years
0:24 lol
Does this do anything to lessen driving wind noise?
Yes increase it

I don't know if weathertech makes the guards for the crosstrek anymore
I don't wanna play with the rubber seal at all. Nope. I'm returning my rain visor.
I am affraid that I'll start hearing wind noise.
it’s actually really simple to put back in place - nothing to be afraid of
@CarsAndCody i just checked its unavailable on amazon now
