I sorta kinda figured that might be the case... So we just leave the headrests up high and dh packs stuff down low in the cargo space when he takes it to boyscout camp or whatever.

But be careful. Some OEM barriers are incompatible with top tethering. This is true for at least some Subarus (mine included) :thumbsdown: (My top tether anchors are in the ceiling of the cargo area, which might be the reason.)
Can I just ask what model/year Subaru you have? Typically the tether anchors are in the ceiling of Subarus, so your post has me curious what model has the anchors below the hatch
You must have missed my doggy drama when I 1st got my 2005 Hybrid Escape I was so confused about how to safely seat a newborn + preschooler + booster'd kid + BIG kid + 2 dogs + myself in that vehicle :dizzy: (& I thought I'd checked everything when I bought it, but the dealership didn't know when I signed the paper that Ford was no longer selling the cargo barrier)To the OP, make sure your car HAS cargo straps... would you believe my Ford Escape Hybrid has none? How shocked was I that day I went to load a hot crock pot full of soup in my trunk and there was nowhere to strap that thing down?
