    Sarah-OEM-Tuned. After watching years of your videos it’s hard to watch any other “build” video. They don’t clean before and after, they don’t use OEM parts and they skip over 80% of the steps. Honestly you have set the bar so high that no one can compete, especially when you add your jokes in. Keep up the amazing work.

      ​@@SarahnTunedyour floor lights look brighter on screen because your camera was increasing exposure due to the mostly dark environment on your shot, your eyes were most likely asborbing light from your shop, this causes your eyes exposure to darkened to compensate for the additional light your camera didn't capture.

    The joy you exude when doing these upgrades is contagious. Nice how Subaru makes it straightforward to install these parts (other than removing intercooler). I've always liked red interior accent lights, sharp looking. I put a red filter in my first new car, '78 Celica GT. Gump keeps getting better and better.

    Spot on with those lights, Sarah. 🔥 Bang-on with the discussion of the color temperature. Not everyone knows this, but every "white" LED is actually a blue LED with phosphor added. The phosphor fluoresces by the blue light emitted from the LED. Cheaper LEDs tend to appear blue-ish (high Kelvin temp) because the phosphors don't fluoresce in all the spectrum colors (causing the phosphor to seem dimmer), or don't shine nearly as brightly as the diode itself (allowing more blue to shine through). That causes cheaper parts to really show blue, and the Subaru OEM parts to look really sharp on Gump. 👍

    • @leonb2637
      @leonb2637 Год назад +1

      Even with home LED light bulbs you have to be careful as to the 'temperature'. Higher Kevlin numbers (daylight 4000+) are best for basements, storage spaces, sometimes kitchens; the lower (2400) for living, dining, bedrooms.

And you can't drive unless the planets line up and it's dry enough, prepped enough, etc.. it's funny. Most of us just want a bit better than stock, better looks, better audio. It's not complicated, driving it to work and the grocery. Not SEMA

Really defeats the stereotypes that newer cars are impossible to do anything to. Just gotta have the right parts, tools, and a creative mind to do it.
