I installed my FT857D in my 2019 Forrester last spring. I ised a Diamond trunk Lip Mount. I will attach send some photos for you review. It was actually easier than I expected.

Hi Ron,
I have not long purchased a MY 2020 Subaru Impreza Hatch and I plan to reinstall my FT857D. My Atas 120a will be mounted just forward of the front windscreen on the driver side mudguard, in the same position I had it on the Subaru Liberty I traded in. I had? grounded the engine bonnet only and the Antenna performed well on all bands from 40m - 70cm.

I have everything but the antenna figured out. My 2014 was easy, but this one with a power liftgate has me stumped. I have a screwdriver antenna with a cm400 mount, but the space on the lip of the gate is filled with a sensor to prevent crushed fingers! Anyone have an idea?
