Why You’ll Love the Kit

• Leave it in your daily driver— slide the bed extension in the trunk to easily use your back seats, and forget you even have a camper installed.
• Maximize space, minimize setup — Installs easily with no tools, anchoring to factory points for a secure fit.
• Built for rugged travel — Aluminum framing and precise fit ensure durability and consistent performance in off-grid conditions.
• Camp with comfort — Even taller users report sleeping fully stretched, toes pointed. A space design difference proven by customer experience by maximizing your vehicle’s dimensions.

Why This Works Better than DIY or Universal Platforms

Compared to DIY Builds:

• No measuring, cutting, or trial-and-error
• No heavy plywood boxes or uneven surfaces
• No risk of wasted weekends or poor fit
• No permanent vehicle modifications that hurt resale value

Compared to Universal Platforms:

• Designed specifically around the Subaru Forester’s interior dimensions
• Proper support over the folded seats for a flat, sturdy sleeping surface
• Integrated storage and table features proportional to the Forester’s interior dimensions

Install & Removal (No Permanent Mods)

Installation is intentionally simple and fully reversible

• No drilling
• No cutting
• No modifications to stock interior 
• Uses factory cargo tie-down points (more than strong enough)
• Installs and removes in minutes

This makes it ideal if you:

• Use your Forester as a daily vehicle
• Plan to sell or trade the vehicle later
• Don’t want to commit to modifications

Dimensions:

• Bed: 41″ wide., 72.5″ Long 
  • 2025 Model is 74″ Long
• Total Platform Height: 8.75 inches near tailgate, then slopes downward toward front of car.
• Uses 28″ Long Drawer Slides

Compatible with ALL trim levels including Wilderness, Limited, Touring, etc.

Platform Top Material:

Carpet: Marine-grade indoor/outdoor carpet bonded to the plywood platform. Soft, quiet, and adds padding under your mattress. Durable enough for muddy boots. Easy to vacuum.

Hex Ply: Phenolic-coated plywood with a rugged hexagonal grip pattern. This is what you see in professional adventure rigs and overland builds. Gear stays put on steep terrain, heavy coolers and bins slide in and out without snagging, and cleanup is a 30-second wipe. Looks aggressive. Won’t absorb spills, odors, or dog hair. If you’re building a kit that works as hard as you do, this is the move.

60/40 SPLIT Bed Extension Option transforms the normal full-width bed extension into two separate pieces, one the width of your double back seat, and one the width of the single back seat. This allows you to have one back seat up, while the other side’s bed is extended. Great for solo camping!

Mosaic wood grain and color varies depending on supply.
