    This is a cool looking rack and you did a great job of installing and documenting but man, this looks like a ton of work for a roof rack. Love the car and your channel 👍.

    I am wanting to vinyl wrap my roof and do it properly... wondering if it's worth the trouble lol. Crazy. You have to disassemble the whole car to access under the roof rails.

    Just did the install today on a 2021 Crosstrek Hybrid. Your video saved me a ton of time! Thanks so much for the great work 👍

    I’ll be installing a Gen 1 prinsu roof rack and prinsu’s how to video definitely omits some pretty critical aspects of getting this thing mounted, lol. Thanks for breaking this down for all of us who want to make this mod to our rigs 🤙🏽

    it looks cool and if you use it according to it's purpose then it's worth a try. but for the ton of work that needs to be done not to mention the clips that i might break during the process, it's a clear pass for me. also i live in northern part so half of the year we are dealing with snow. it would be a pain to remove snow on my roof if i have that roof rack installed, plus the amount of rust it will build up. but if you live in an area with no snow then it would be ok. please don't get me wrong, i still love how it looks like. also the step by step procedure you did. all in all its a very nice xtrek!

    Now that you have done an install....is it possible to cut the existing roof rack with a cut-off saw and drop the bolts from the rooftop? So you don't have to drop the headliner....

    I hope you put Loctite on all those little bolts. They look like they could come loose down the road.

    I would break everything inside. Would love one for my new Forester Sport but doing that in the Phoenix heat is not happening and a shop would charge me out the a**. Looks so good though, bro.

      @@meesubicrosstrek8097 118 today, bro. 😩 Maybe this “winter”. Looks so amazing and the other racks just don’t compare. I saw that Spider rack. Only difference is the no drill so I would definitely pick the Prinsu over it.

    what front piece wind deflector did you get so it's completely straight across for the entire 44" width? I only see a 40" option and it doesn't look the same as yours

    Nice setup brother, I’m getting mine this Thursday I live in Seattle and I’m not sure what’s a good sealant to use we’re at 30-45 degrees range every day. What kind of sealant did you use? I
    Need something that can cure fast in cold weather.

    How did you go about mounting your light bar? Is there a pretty clean way of running the wire without drilling?

    Did your part numbers make sense for the rack mounting? My kit came with 10 large washers and 6 smaller washers and no lock washers in spite of there being 12 roof holes…
