In this picture...



follow the "inches" scale of the ruler all the way back, then look straight up from there. The bottom of the struts angle back deeper into the dash, so they do not get in the way of the cage. But the top half of the struts are right behind the cage.

On the inside edge of the two struts, there is a flange that points towards the rear of the radio. These are what touch the rear of the WRX radio. The upper half of these flanges need to be nibbled or bent out of the way.

It is easier to see this by sliding in the cage without the radio.
