i did mine ages ago but if i remember correctly you need to remove the rear seats, then you will see the top mounts.

my strut brace is in three parts, take the middle out, install either end on strut the put middle part back in.

I put one in my blobeye couple of month ago. Found a video on YouTube. Very helpful. Just type in rear strut brace for Subaru impreza and you should find it. Be careful tightening your strut bolts up. I sheard one off and had to av it replaced.

I removed the two end plates from the brace, remove the seats, I found loosening the rear seat belt at the retractor gave better access, bolt each end down and the fit the link brace from the boot wasn't difficult and I am a noob lol
