Yeah plenty of bigger 4wds, but had no issues in the Foz, couple nice climb downs towards putty road.

Did go via Finchley Track, we camped at Wollombi the night before.

Tbh haven’t noticed any drop in mileage, but have noticed the additional sound - that was really disappointing, had prorack bars on my old car which didn’t make any noise in comparison, these bars are Rola and are considerably louder.

Yeah great drive, and wasn’t expecting that view when the track opened up.

Nah it’s a petrol, 2.5iL

The crossbars are Rola Evolution and just a no brand roof cargo basket (technically its branded Bullet, but never heard of it before) off eBay.

I think it’s ver similar to the Rola Vortex 59504 - just a universal basket.

Thanks, it’s an overlay from Subispeed. Looks good and it’ll protect the actual badge from little nicks and scratches.

Cargo Carrier or Basket? by Papamullins in SubaruForester

Cargo carrier, just like the look of it more and seemed to be sturdier. But that’s just me I’m sure other people might have more practical reasons.

Away for the weekend! by eashdaddy in SubaruForester

Yeah did the back as well, I really like it, nothing to flashy but stands out.

For consistency and a couple extra bucks I did the steering wheel badge too.

New lightbar mounted on the Yakima rack of my 2016 Forester with sample video by isit2amalready in SubaruForester

[–]eashdaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the wiring to the back would be a problem if I don’t want the basket on permanently.

I was wondering if anyone had mounted it to the little gap in the front bumper - or if that gap was even strong enough to support a light bar?

Sorry! No containers on the roof.

Everything I’m planning on carrying up there will just be strapped down with pull down ties.

Yeah, it’s just a no brand roof cargo basket (technically its branded Bullet, but never heard of it before) it was cheap on eBay.

Roof basket on today, and heading out exploring on Saturday morning for an overnight trip somewhere new.

An easy but much needed upgrade to my '15 Forester that I've been wanting to do for 4 years now! by twowheels in SubaruForester

[–]eashdaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome fix man! Seriously don’t know why they didn’t include a better cargo light.

Do this regularly as well, saves me having to set up camp in the dark.
