Take a couple of hose clamps, chain them together until it is long enough, and wrap them around the heatshield. Worked perfect on my dad’s old 2004 legacy.

There was a black one in Massachusetts for like $7k a month or so back, and it already had a roof rack with extra lighting. Needless to say I wanted it.
