You can get universal tie down equipment for your battery at most auto parts stores Pep Boys, Advance Auto, etc.)

The tie down "J" or "L" bolts and nuts come in one package. Thet are usually 1/4"x20 and are threaded at one end. They may have to be cut a little off the end to make sure they don't kit the hood. If there are different lengths available, get the shortest length you can find.

The battery brackets are universal and fit most standard battery widths (which is just under 7")

The only thing you would have to get from Subaru is the battery tray. This also secures the battery and keeps battery acid from coming into contact with the frame. The tall side of the pan (faces the engine) has a built-in guide for the bolt to slide through to further secure the battery pan against movement.) Don't skimp on this part.

The battery pan by itself is about $14.00. You should be able to get everything you need OEM for about $36.00. Someone here may have spares.
