How to Install a Subaru Steering Dampener Lockdown & Review (Perrin) • Cars Simplified

This Perrin steering dampener lockdown component was moderately easy to install, and I am hoping by making the best installation video about it on YouTube, it will be extra easy for you to install yours! This fits many Subaru models, but to be sure it fits yours, check out this list of cars the manufacturer says this will fit: https://www.perrin.com/shop/drivetrai...

Some of the listed models are some of the years of the Subaru Crosstrek, Subaru WRX, Subaru Impreza, Subaru Forester, Subaru Legacy, and Subaru Outback.

Parts/Tools/Consumables:

Extension set: https://amzn.to/33MJuvo (brand/product I actually own)
5mm hex socket: https://amzn.to/30Mm4ED (I own the full 3/8" set)
Work light: https://amzn.to/36RoAgC (Not what I own, but what I own isn't great.)

Parts of this were filmed on a Canon Eos Rebel T5i with a Deity D3 Pro microphone (with deadcat/windsock) attached, and some of the shots (close quarters work and in-car) were filmed on a GoPro Hero 8 Black Edition.
