The Rear Plate System is the optional foundation for the Subaru Forester cargo area — a flat mounting base that bolts in at drilled points so you can lock down a Solo Fridge Slide or a Park Series module setup and add package upgrades later. Park Series modules don’t require it (they mount to the factory tie-downs), but the plate makes the rear far more versatile. The spare tire can stay in place or be relocated.
Who it's for
A great fit if you want a secure, upgrade-ready base and don’t mind drilling to fit it. Look elsewhere if you’d rather not drill — Park Series modules install without the plate, straight to the factory tie-downs.
Where this fits in your build
- System role: Optional rear foundation for the Subaru Forester.
