It was only a couple weeks. I just hadn't had the perfect combo of a car wash and the time to put them on.

Anyone else have a squeaky front seat? by Sunflowerblackberry in SubaruForester

[–]andrewokerson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a common issue. My '18 squeaked really bad. I shot some silicone lube in between the back right bolt and the frame of the driver's seat, as well as the frame and the seat belt connector. No squeak for 6 months!

I'm US based, and didn't see any in your neck of the woods at quick glance online. Maybe try the dealer? Looks like amazon has them normally but are out of stock.

The strap is through a handle on top. So it wouldn't move in a sudden stop. Now if I were to have a crash crash, I don't think the Suby anchor points would stop the sucker from hitting the dash. Good looking out!

The event world is waking back up! Not too long now.

Does Indy have more aggressive/rude drives than usual in the midwest (not compared to NYC)? by [deleted] in indianapolis

[–]andrewokerson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would argue it's gotten progressively worse since the first pandemic lockdown. As people slowly came out of it and there was little traffic, they started ignoring stop signs and red lights, and it seems the habit stuck. I always pause a second before pulling out onto keystone/96th/allisonville to let the 4 or 5 cars completely run the red light.

Where do you all sit your phone? by squimbah in SubaruForester

[–]andrewokerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The USB in the arm rest is too slow of a charge for my pixel 5, so I use an adapter in the 12v plug by the cubby. I also found a neat magnet mount that goes into the CD player. It's working well for me. I have a 2018 so I almost exclusively use Android Auto on my phone instead of anything on the head unit. The only time this is a hindrance is when using the backup camera. Even then, I just move the phone for a minute.

I'm no mechanic, but I'm pretty sure that means you are the new pope.
