    This is a great video, and exactly how I work on my projects at home bag and tag, everything is safe and sound and out the way, also gives you the chance to make a list of parts to look for.

    Often a reluctant screw can be freed by a few sharp taps on the end of the screwdriver with a hammer. You can apply a bit of turning pressure at the same time. Basically the way an impact screwdriver works.

    All this time i Was Across the Road in the Coffee Shop. Waiting for my car. 1489 Cappuccino's later i was able to drive home. By that time it was Summer & the Rain had stopped.

    The indicators are very cheep replacements and I would just drill out the screws and throw the old away. To remove rivets it is easier to use a small wood chisel and tap the head off and pop the rest of the rivet out. A little painful to watch you struggle on such an easy removal. Using a screw driver as you did as a pry bar was cringing. You was bending the metal of the body. Pulling the wires the way you do is cringing also. Try using a set of needle nose pliers on each end of the connector to pull the connectors apart if you are not sure if you will be replacing the wires. Just wondering how long you have been doing this the hard way for ? Years?

    New subscriber to your channel. Great video man, but way wayyyy too long. Keep the chat down to a minimum and put some music with it along with some different camera angles and helpful tips. The fast forwarding was good but instead of having it show parts of what your doing, allow it to show everything with some music. There’s a lot of detail in your work, but definitely needs some adjustment to suit a customers car. In 17 years of being in the trade, if I had done something like pry against the bodywork to get an indicator out, I’d have been shot. It’s constructive criticism so take it with a grain of salt. Stay covid safe man

    YES ! start off your video by slagging of others!!! As others on feedback have stated you seem way too full of yourself, never watched it to the end.

    Cringing at the way you are taking out the glass.. NEVER pry against the glass the way you are.. The rubber for a Mini is standard and very cheap and easy to get. Just cut it out and remove the rubber. Dont pry it out like this guy is doing as you run the risk of chipping or even cracking the glass... JEEEeezezeeEEEZEZEeeezez.. Cringe.. And he is getting paid to do other peoples cars? .. Good for him but he is needing to learn better ways of doing it
