Wow, bro, just did this job, thanks to your video, did not take me as long, but once you start hammering on the rear door guards be advised that you may have to re-pinch the guard to narrow the gap going onto door edge. Fast drying glue going to be used if right rear pops off, but that will probably happen on a highway. Think you have to buy the entire kit to replace one? Put a sock, new without holes or dirt, over the end of my mallet and fastened it on with a zip tie. Don't know how to upload an image for this, but Yankee ingenuity never ends. Had to have more angular bends in guard than door edge curve, but no other way to wrestle this beast, could have used 2 more hands. Front a walk in the park, rears had too many curves for easy install. Thanks. I put some minor marks on the door edge, but opening door will not do so anymore.

Good tips for others that come here. Sounds like we had mostly similar ideas on installing. Did you see my video after the install or did you use it for it?

@@revcircle Watched your video prior to tackling the Job from Hades! Would like to send my image of my custom rubber mallet with sock cover, if possible. A helper on this job would be a time saver and the key to a tight fit, aside from a straight aim and hit with the mallet, taps are better than strikes, is to center the cut-out portions of Subaru guard locating curves and getting either top or bottom started and working your way, tapping as you go, to the other end. But if you have trouble with a particular strip of guard, you may have to use needle-nose pliers, gently, to reclose guard's gap to get a tight fit. Only in spot but will make big difference if you are struggling.
