There were no listing for my specific year of Subaru Impreza. Deric from Desertdoesit researched and found two products that wound fit my car. When I received my seat jackers I found them to be well made and after thoroughly reading the instructions and watching a you tube video I installed them with the help of my wife assisting with angling the seat back. Driving for about a week and my back feels a lot better. Great product also got a sticker decal and a lemon head candy.

If you are in pain, DO IT! 2009 Subaru Forester
I tried almost everything else without success, so naturally I had my doubts. My husband even said, "they only boost an inch, how much could that possibly help?" But it really has been a night and day difference like other reviewers have said. I went for an all-day road trip the day after the front jackers were installed, and for the first time in ten years, I did not suffer from debilitating back pain during the trip and for days afterwards. I also noticed that my body is more stable in my stock seat during turns and bumps that were previously felt more sharply right up my spine. I have lots of problems in my SI joints and L4-S1 discs. It feels like the jackers took the pressure off these areas. Since installing them, I haven't experienced the overwhelming radiculopathy while driving that I always used to get after 30+ minutes behind the wheel. I am so grateful for the massive reduction in pain. The quality of life improvement has been priceless for me. I am also happy to see that Desert Does It makes the jackers for lots of makes and models, so I will be covered and be able to get more when I eventually need a new car. Thank you so, so much for this wonderful product! You've been able to solve a pain issue for me that doctors and PTs could not.

I finally got the chance today to install my seat slammers and I couldn’t be happier. I don’t have to duck to get in my gladiator anymore and I don’t hit my head on the sound bar. It gives the truck a totally different feel now behind the wheel. I highly recommend this to anyone.
Nicely presented and packaged + product arrived in a timely manner. Having installed them in my 19 Tundra the seating position has become a lot more comfortable. I’m finally feeling somewhat supported in the seat. Thanks
Fitment problems on Ram 2500 Tradesman 40/20/40 split bench seat
Driver side aft position seat jackers worked fine (the two seat bolts dedicated to the driver seat accommodated the spacers). However, of the two aft passenger seat bolts, the one nearest to center has a support bracket providing support for the center bench seat. With that seat bolt removed, I was able to pry it enough to fit the jacker (spacer) but could not get the bolt to thread - even with a lot of force. I partially stripped the Jacker bolt because the bolt could not be lined up with the spacer in place and it wore on the bolt. I was afraid I would strip the welded nut in the floor, so I just removed the Passenger side jackers and re-installed the OEM bolts without the lift spacers. The directions indicate that some prying may be required, but in my case, the amount of prying and potential bending/deformation to the passenger seat support frame / center split seat bracket was way beyond reasonable. Happy with driver side seat jacker, but I'd avoid using these for passenger side in my Ram seat configuration.
