The absolute joy Sarah felt in just sitting in her new car seat is contagious. It's one reason I love this channel.😀
Those of us with foresters appreciate your struggles!!!! So we don’t have to go through it and can just order it correctly the first times 😁
I can’t decide which is more insane. That this is what Sarah does for a living, or that I watch ALL of her content, and I don’t even like vehicles.
thats beacuse we like Sarah :D
Yup
Her obsession with getting everything exactly right is contagious.
Keep the lower Forrester piece of the seat. Changing seats makes such a difference in your car. I put BRZ seats in my 1988 200sx and Toyota 86 seats in my 04 Accord coupe.
A lot of work to change the front seats but SO worth it especially after you cleaned them. That’s going to be a unique Forester when you are finished
I’m sorry. Finished? When is a car ever “finished”?
Seats and interior trim looks fantastic.
For some reason now, I must go out and buy noodles.
The "Gump" is looking awesome! Super smart to use the Forester rails to keep the height the same as it was.....really super smart.
I would want the seat lower if possible.
@@cayman9873 the seat is power adjustable, you can lower it plenty that way.
@@SarahnTuned Are the seat mounting points in the STI/WRX the same as the Forester? So you could fit the mounting bracket, sliding rails, and seat straight in the SJ without swapping any parts over?
@@SarahnTuned you need a video wall withmultiple montors when you do content in garage with specs and tech of cars on the wall
"Crazy with the cheese wiz" is not a reference I hear enough. I'm a driver. I'm a winner. Things are gonna change; I can feel it.
Me too!
With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables; Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose..
@@SarahnTuned Butane in my veins cause im out to cut the junkie
Kill the headlights and put it in neutral...
You’re not the only weird person. I just bought a new truck and I’m doing things to make it more enjoyable for me. The stuff for the Gump is pretty cool.
It's always cool to personalize your car and make it just a little different than all the other ones
I think the videos you create of things you do purely for the fun of it are among your best. You exuded nothing but joy, and even laughed at yourself over ordering the wrong part. 😉 As usual, the editing and music choices are Emmy-level… I know you put in crazy hours producing these. Take a bow! 👍
Pulling seats and cleaning under them is one of the more satisfying things you can do working on a car.
I would absolutely never ever underestimate you Sarah!
Yay those do look brand new now they've had the Sarah treatment. I think stick with the Gump trims round the front seats wouldn't of noticed the gap if you'd not pointed it out.👌❤
"Legends of the Hidden bolt" followed by after life Sarah is one big reason i love this channel! Yay Sarah!
I so love the comment you made, "Don't ever underestimate me". I don't think we do. I think you are so brill "sensei". What a worthwhile job on those seats. Wish I had your work ethic. Keep it up.
Original forester side seat moldings looked 👍
I must be a Brute. Our host brings civility for our craft. With my past projects I was lucky to put back floorboards. You replaced an entire interior!? I concede .
You are making the most of the Subaru. You are and excellent technician too. I love the humor, double entendre and low cut shirts!
So this what your week end was like. Fine job very productive, very productive. Feels like we experienced the high lights. Through the magic of editing production, about 72 hours packed into short of 17 minutes. What I did in that time wouldn't make for content anyone would care to see. Really enjoy yours as a divergence. Thanks Sarah.
You are amazing, never boring.
The new(ish) seats look great! Using the OEM rails to maintain seat height was excellent thought and work.
Gawd these videos are so much fun to watch... Bonus is I learn a bunch of shit...
Wow, just wow. This is going to be one special Forrester!
Fender flares will look amazing. Love what you do and i wait every week for a new video. So entertaining
You are relentless 👍
While you were vacuuming I could totally hear you saying "What? You thought I wasn't going to do this?". And then you did. I LOL'd
I love how thorough you are. It's impressive.
Nice seat in your forester hope to see it finish you should winning a Grammy award for Best clear car details and keep doing a great job beautiful
Yet another example of why your channel is just the greatest! Much respect ✊
It's amazing how NEW everything on your car looks. I mean, those seat frames. Brand spanking new.
Those Recaro's look absolutely great!
I wish I had noodles now.
I'd want the rear panel signed by Sarah just to hang on my wall as part of my "cool sh*t" collection🙂
The perfectionist in you even added the diamond shaped vacuum marks on the seats.
You're awesome. 😁😎
Those humor of yours is what i really like! 😅😅😅
Wow, those front seats look awesome! And that cleaning montage was satisfying to watch. 😊
Sarah, I recently got a Ranger Tremor, but you can't get the black appearance package with the tremor. SO I ordered all the badges from the black appearance package separately. I disassembled the fender vent badge my truck came with, and then disassembled the one from the black appearance package, harvested JUST the lettering rom the black appearance package and reassembled my badge with the black lettering instead of the chrome.
What I'm trying to say is. I get it. Because NO ONE will ever care but me.
🥰 this so much!
When I see someone riding super low, I holler out "Hey! Those vents? They're adjustable!"
Lol 😂
Hi Sarah! You’re the best…thank you for who you are and what you do.
I’d go with the STi trim pieces for your seats… might allow easier access if something falls underneath the seats and you have to reach from the side. My cellphone has slid under the seat in my 2013 Camry SE V6 and it’s super tight going in from the side, so I’d have to ol power the seat forward or back just to gain access.
Hey, Kalmah I just wanted to say You're The Best...thank you for who you are and what you do!!!! :D
@@Canadiancarguy1987 🧐
@@luisamoa2500 I like making weird comments ok LOL
@@Canadiancarguy1987 So, like… I guess that means my comment was weird? 🤨
Thank you Sarah!
"that's probably the dumbest thing I've ever said"... Oh, Sarah! Not even close 🤣
I'm not sure what the dumbest thing Sarah has ever said is.
But it's not that.
Just soooooo awesome, great work! I don’t even care what ride you are working on, it’s your attention to detail that is awesome.👍
It's sooo satisfying once each job is complete
The attention to detail you put into your projects is soooo next level! Great Job!
Sarah, you are endlessly entertaining. I'm glad I'm not the only one who sweats the really small stuff in automotive work. Thank you from NM!
I love the oem+ look and feel of this car. I think it’s a lot art in the car community! Great work!!
you're doing a fantastic job there I can't fault you in any way and I'm so glad the MR2 is working great too.
Awesome upgrade to the Forester. Can't wait to see the fender flare installation.
Damn Sarah your forester is looking outstanding. Happy for you. :)
Nice thinking on the height of the airbags, I don't think many would have caught that.
The Gump is coming out really nice. Fast Wagons are always awesome.
Yea!! Forest Gump content!!
If one of those boxes contained chocolates, even better. That’s life.
Love the Gump Sarah and your attention to detail!!
if you cant find seatbelts to swap, you can swap just the one part out of the seat belt. All you have to do is remove the tensioner, pull the belt all the way out and it is held in the tensioner by running through the center with a loop and pin. once removed you can swap the just the seatbelt buckle and reassemble. Also you could get a sheet of foam and poke it behind the leather to fill the small gap in the side trim.
hello, I could be wrong but check that the seat backs have the airbags accommodated as it should be. I seemed to see the labels inward and not outward. regards
Beautiful XTI in progress
Great work Sarah. The Forester Gump looks amazing with the Recaro seats. And all the other improvements too.
Let’s see a bolster test for the new seats👍🏻
Interior looking fabulous 👌!! That's some tedious work too.
I saw that old stale Noodle on the back floor, you little One Upper! 🤣
Very cool to see a happy Sarah!🥳😗
Nice. I have this seat package in my car and it was worth the shopping around to get one with these. Nothing beats butt warmers in the winter but you probably won't need those 😂
Keep the Forrester piece for the seat.
+1 for "Keep the Forrester piece for the seat."
+2 for keep Forrester piece for the seat
Add upholstery foam to the seat bottom behind the leather it will fill that Gap, I believe the Forester cushion is actually a 1/4” wider
The Gump build is just awesome. I really love it. Reminds me of when I had my Fiesta ST and was buying the Euro-spec parts like the LED headlights.
Your videos are so satisfying to watch because of all the detail and time you put into each part! I'm the same way, if I take anything off my car and its rusty, it's either getting replaced or sanded down and repainted! Keep up the great work!
14:14 ahhh the old spoof from that song by Billy "Crash" Craddock
Love the red trim.
Yes, go all SARAH on us, we need that
You're the dopest, I love your style Sarah!
Well done Sarah
Getting seats in and out of vehicles without damaging paint and trim is challenging in its self. Seat disassembly and and re-assembly is in its own universe.
I love the concept of modifying a vehicle with other OEM parts from higher trim levels or similar models with different desirable features. I'm doing that on a truck I own - makes people look twice and scratch their head lol
Another option is that it was just a salt belt car. My 02 wrx had the same issue, and the floor boards in the driver side also started rusting apart. It's just the nature of living in a wet environment with salted roads.
I love how insanely thorough you are! You make me feel like less of a weirdo, so thanks for that!
I can’t wait to see the video of your rear
The meticulous attention to detail, the fastidious need to clean, and the joy of accomplishing tasks are why I watch this channel. You are awesome.
The bonus secret looks fantastic. 🤫
I admire your determination and bravery. Gump is looking really awesome.
Nobody fiddles with a car better than Sarah.
Nice work. I totally agree with using the Forester parts to retain the seat height, it was engineered to fit that way and changing seat height screws with a lot of the design.
Love the seats, they look great ...
You're too funny! I love that pause with the grin😏 those seats are cool for sure.👏
This are some sick seats. Gump is one pretty sexy car, just like it’s owner. Keep up the content, jokes, and reviews.
Forester is looking great Sarah! It is absolutely one of a kind, just like it's owner.
At first, after seeing the seats side by side, I thought the originals looked better. I should have known, your OCD trumps my OCD by miles and you nailed it. I'm canceling the intervention. I await your next video. Love your attitude and penchant for perfection.
Nice update on Gump! Let’s get working on Grandma’s Ranger! 👍👍
Looks great. With the dark red accents in the seats I would tie that in with something on the outside. Like red trim on the wheels or on the rear spoiler.
Negative on the outside stuff. But thanks!
I don't know why... but the seat cleaning was very satisfying to my OCD. Thank you, Sarah.
Keep up the amazing content! You’re a great person! Awesome personality 😎🤙🏾💙
You’re awesome Sarah ! Love your channel !
I love the gump!!!! So excited to see more
I did something similar to put JDM seats in my old 2004 STi. The JDM bases were not direct bolt in, and I wanted the drivers adjustments…so I had to swap the seat cushions and covers onto the USDM bases, and then put the JDM seat backs on to the US bases. Super PITA but it looked cool in the end, and a lot more bolstering.
You are a sparkle in my day. Thanks Sarah
Overboard? Yes! That's why we're here.
Sarah is the kind of person who would remove all the seats just to vacuum the floor.
This video it's great for the painters; as painter one spend a lot of time replacing, fixing and cleaning the seats.
Those Ricaro seats look incredible great job Sarah😁
Allright!
I dont know you, but I love you! You always put a smile on my face. Thanks for that, it was highly needed
Keep the Subaru trim piece and start a "Sarah Fail Wall". Put all your cool stuff up there.
Your vision for this vehicle is truly BADASS!
That was awesome!!
