Does Thule Passage Trunk Rack Fit 2009 Subaru Forester with Spoiler

Question:

Hi, I recently purchased the Thule passage 2. I must say I have been delighted by youre customer service. The product worked good on my fiancées 2010 Mazda 3. However I have a 09 Forester and it has a small spoiler at the top of the trunk. I bought this car used and wasnt sure if this was common feature on older foresters or if Thule has accounted for the spoiler already. I have attached pictures of what it looks like. Basically just wondering if Im okay to use the product on my forester, was just worried something might happen to the spoiler. Thanks!

According to Thule their Passage part # TH910XT that you have is confirmed as a fit for your 2009 Subaru Forester that has a spoiler. The top straps would get ran over the spoiler. Most of the weight of the rack is supported by the lower arms of the rack though so not that much weight gets put on the spoiler.
