I will look more closely next time I see one, but I know our 02 Legacy has a layer that sits on top of the sheetmetal that's meant to prevent dings in the paint. Not sure what it's made of, to be honest.

I have them on my brand new baby Premium and I do believe they are for protection against paint damage in that area as the wheel well is flared out.

Got em on my 05 LGT Wagon.
Had em on my 92 SVX.
Not sure if my 94 Legacy has em.

So we have the Forester out for the W/E until Monday morning. Our dealer knows we are a near sale and has always been accomodating with established customers. I'll post my extended drive review soon. Dra does find it looks big and likes the fact that the OB is lower in roof height. I don't get that, it's not like we use a roof rack or have lots or really low bridges around here. There is certainly much more space in the second row of the Forester. But to be fair the OB still gets a mondo sunroof which is tinted and has a tilt option.

the clear patches are on my '09 forester, right on lowermost point of rear fenders. I suspect it is there to protect against chipping.

Does anyone know what the best product is to apply to the dash and plastic to protect it? Also how do you go about scotch gaurding the seats?

Last time I "scotch guarded" a seat, you could buy a spray can of scotch guard at K-mart or the automotive store, etc. and just spray them. The dealer will offer to scotch guard them for you, for a price, about $600 I was quoted...not worth it imo.
 
As far as the dash, I use "303 Protectant" on my canoes, which I bet would work good on the dash. It has UV protection. It will make your dash slick, so things would slide around on top...but also will make it so the dirt/dust can't stick around.

PS Scotchguard is a GM product and trademarked. There are other variations out there.

2009 Forester Price drop by sgloon

Anyone else notice that the MSRP for the 2009 Forester took a dive over the weekend? I was watching the Manual Transmission Premium package (no add ons). It went from 23,160 MSRP to 22,495 MSRP over the weekend. That is down $665! Yeah!!!
 
Invoice is down to 21,171.
 
How low will it go...
 
I don't think they changed the offerings within the packages, but we may want to check.
 
...whoever said he who hesitates...
PS This is per the Edmonds and Subaru website prices.

Sorry all. I think I need to go to bed. The number that popped up didn't include the destination charge. ...I'll have to check further when I have more sleep! Ah, well it was a nice thought!
