Congrats to new owners! Hope to hear from 2014 owners soon hahah!

sir vw, hella supertones po? Hindi nyo po ba sa casa papakabit? hehehe?

Getting my plate soon. Also thinking of changing fog lights with yellow bulbs. Any suggestions? Still need to read up on this though

Thank you calistro, pwede ba sa casa pa kabit? I'd be better if casa ang mag pa kabit.

Me too wondering on the yellow fogs. I was just going to do the yellow film hehe

40k for Rota rims + the cost of 4 tires.

18s would do fine for Foresters.

Copy, same as replicas. For example, Volk Racing makes really really expensive rims. Take TE37 for example, an orig set would set you back at a 6-digit pricing. Rota, which is a local brand, copies the rims and sells it at a cheaper price, usually 40k/set for 18s .. hence the term "copy"

Hi Forester Guys,

I am very close to purchasing the 2.0XS... hopefully tomorrow ma-close na namin yung deal. Yey! I am so excited.

Last few questions about the head unit. Ma-vo-void ba yung warranty ko if we had it installed outside? How about if I have it installed sa casa or "in-house" before delivery of my unit?

What companies do you suggest I get for this and what model na din? I want the complete package sana with 2 head rest monitors, because I have a very makulit na toddler.

Thank you so much! I can't wait to see other FXS/FXT on the road and I will definitely honk or flash my light when I do.

So after doing some back reading, at around page 130-135, I saw some answers to my questions. Mainly the brands that I can choose from (AVT, FlyAudio, Pioneer)... Pero the question about warranty was not answered there yet. So I will continue some more back reading.

Anyway, can anybody share their experience of the "hand-me-over" procedure? Meron bang checklist of the things I need to inspect during the turnover?

Baka kasi sa sobrang excitement ko, di ko na ma-inspect mabuti. At i-drive ko na lang palabas, like i stole it. Hehehe.

Seriously, kailangan ko ba mag-dala ng mechanico to help me sa inspection/detailing?

Congrats with your new purchase. To answer your questions...

1. Warranty of head unit if replaced - better to ask your sales agent. Buti na yung galing sa kanya ang advice kaysa sa amin, because you can always refer to him in case you need to claim warranty. You should also refer to the car's warranty booklet which comes separately from the owner's manual. So in case of doubts about what the sales rep says, the booklet will be your final arbiter.

2. The turn-over - the dealer will give you a checklist of items so you can inspect the car accordingly.

3. Kailangan ng mekaniko? - I didn't bring one when I got my unit. I felt that if there was something wrong, dapat lang nila ayusin for the amount of money I spent on the car. Pag brand new, madalas naman na halos wala kang alalahanin lalo na pag fresh off the showroom. However, I did experience some rattling in the tailgate 2 wks after I got the car. Binalik ko and after they tightened a few bolts, OK na. No charge (dapat lang). Pero kung mas panatag ang loob mo kung may kasama kang mekaniko, then that's your choice.

Good luck and enjoy the ride.

Thanks a lot, Sir Jack!

I have another question, if you don't mind.

If I buy my car sa Alabang, can I have it serviced at Fort or Greenhills? These are nearer my work place, and my home, respectively.

But the color that I want is only available sa Alabang, so I will go there tomorrow to finally pay and seal the deal. My agent said I'll be able to get my unit on Saturday. Yey!! Can't wait.

Thanks again, Sir.

Thank you calistro, pwede ba sa casa pa kabit? I'd be better if casa ang mag pa kabit.

Me too wondering on the yellow fogs. I was just going to do the yellow film hehe

Sir vw, mas prefer daw nila na sila magkabit, dala lang ng relay dahil wala sila masyado gamit dun. Sa Greenhills branch to sir.
Post naman ng pics un mga nagpalit na ng rims =) Thanks!

Re : mods, from an old thread in the SF forum but still nice. Paddle shifters for SH :clap:

Kahit saan mo pa service wala kang problema.. Yung sa Alabang is a franchised .. Yung ortigas at fort company owned by MI..

Regarding yellow fogs, most subbys nagpapa overlay.. Look for CarloV in subysoc, siya yung nag overlay ng mga kotse.

I went to Alabang this morning and paid for my Forester already. This is my first Subaru car.

Sirs, question. Are our Foresters 2012 or 2013 model? My agent said it's 2013. I am confused because I know this was released in our country last year, right?

Anyway, I am now surfing the subarupartsonline website... I got a couple of items I want to buy... but I want to double check first if it will really fit mine.

I like this splash guard: https://www.subaruonlineparts.com/pr...4cd697d271fe8f

But according to the info below, it fits 2009, 2010 and 2011 models. And it is part number: J1010SC020...

Meron po ba sa manual indicating the part numbers that will fit? I don't have my manual yet...

Thank you so much.

Those splash guards will fit the 2012/2013 SH. I clearly remember those manuals when I installed the splash guards on my FXT recently.
