Subaru Window Gusset Replacement - How To

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I remember when I purchased the Forester on the used market quite a number of years ago, the first drive home I noticed the noise coming from the windows. It's something I disregarded for so long as the majority of my driving is in town or I have something alternatively to drive. The last few trips though, I told myself to get the cabin to quiet down and here we are.
As I read into the wind noise, I came to find that the noise was actually from the gussets holding the mirrors on. I was surprised. Many people try to crimp the original parts to try and make a better seal with some success. For the cost, I want to replace mine. They have been sitting around here for months and it was time to get them installed.
Thanks for watching! Making this little rig that much more enjoyable for when it comes time to travel again. Sometimes the small things make a big difference. STAY TUNED!

    Holy crap! This is exactly what I'm looking for w/o even searching for it. Got the same problem since about a year with my trusty 2005er. Thanks for putting this up, mate!

    This is the problem I have on my '05 outback, hopefully I can use tape or something until I can replace the whole unit.

    Some people have good luck squeezing them so they grip around the window better. I've seen some add additional weather stripping or foam behind the cover with decent results.
