No better way to start the day in these troubled times with a Salvage Rebuilds video ....Stay well fella's...
The van looks so much better, the paintwork you did is amazing!!.
I’ve heard good things about the 2K. Thanks Rob!
What an improvement that made ✅ Great job guys 👍
Hi Rob I must say I do look forward too your videos
You are completely natural never pretending to be something you are not. Lately you made a comment about not being the right time to buy something and that maybe you couldn’t afford it at present.
Very few car guys ever admit the truth when they can’t afford something I like your honesty. Keep up the good work and stay safe in these worrying times. God bless and keep you safe regards Pat.
Another top job Rob, can’t wait for the cozzie
Super helpful.
I'm replacing the side panel because I knacked the work van's wheel arch.
Thanks, man.

That van looks so much better now i bet the owner will be well chuffed as hes saved himself alot of money if he took it to a garage to get the work done especially with how much labour prices are these day keep the video coming mate cant wait to see the cosworth next 👍👍👍
Great video as always. Very interesting and informative didn't know you had to activate those made up rattle cans 😁
I'm really surprised how the paint cam out. Very satisfying job that, the facelift. Keep up the great work but after this time passes.
good job and i liked how you have the time lapse music
Always learn something watching your videos Rob- Id not seen 2k in a rattler before.
It does indeed look so much better as you say Rob 🙂🍻👍🏻
Great video I think if you painted the bumper it would have been so much better,great coverage from that 2k rattle can.Great video Rob keep em coming 👍
Hello Rob thank you for the video it has helped a lot with my facelift on my sprinter van . Just wanted help with the headlight wiring to please ? I don't know which wire I need to connect to on my 2007 sprinter to make this 2016 headlight work.
Lets get involved and hatless Chris magic
thanks guys!
That can of paint looks like great stuff😀
good job with the paint
Incredible how that paint covered red easily
Great job,updated that van by a few years worth a few more pounds
Always worth checking and marking the headlight aim against a wall before taking apart so you can get the replacement ones somewhere close
khammered they are automatic 👍
Can't believe how well that covered the red
A nice facelift 👍🏻
Looks great 👍😎😎😎
Brilliant..but fogs would have being a nice touch.fine job tho.
Awesome video, just a question about the wiring if you didn’t make any change to it would the original plugs fit the new headlights minus the drl not working ?
What did you do regarding the headlight wiring? Just done the conversion on mine but although the original plugs fit the headlight they don't operate
Oh now you can tell when two guys love what they do, when they can work outside in the sunshine rather than be stuck in the workshop, a great video Rob and Chris
Hi rob great job just wondering where you get power for daytime running lights did you have to pit a relay in great video .!
Great job. Can you share what major components you updated? Was the hood and fenders changed too? Would the hood latch brace needed or could your old one be used?
hi just doing same as yas on my 2007 recovery only problem i have is headlight wiring could you help with this thanks
What I did notice Rob was that Chris brought himself a chair out! Bit of theme here I think with him taking charge of the little tool chair as well.🙈.... but I guess we’ll allow that as he is quite handy sitting or not 🤣.... another good job fellas 👍🏻
BBC Boxing you have to sit to solder mate 👌👍
salvage rebuilds uk ...🤣I don’t begrudge him that chair mate he’s too valuable 👍🏻... you just have a sit down when you require it😱🤣
Loved this video thank you, I’ve got an older sprinter and thought about doing this. You have just made my mind up! Thanks again!
Louis Spencer very very easy to do 👍
What did you do about the headlight wiring, rob?
Do you have any guides/diagrams that you’d be willing to share
I’ve got this to do this evening 2012 to this face lift my questions are do you not need to change the radiator? And the headlight wiring is it the same colour wires just a different plug ? Thank you for the video
What are you looking at that to Wrap the van, couple of grand? Looks amazing well done
The grill looks like it’s got LED lights in it.
Are they amber flashing? Assumed so as light units on these facelifts have DRL’s built in.
Nice one Rob you would never think that was an older sprinter now. How bout doing a VW t5 with a t6 facelift 👍
Hi rob and chris do you happen to have the diagrams of how you wired up the headlights ?
Hi Rob. Does it have a same amount of cores and colours in the wiring loom?
I wish I had half your motivation boyo Jesus, I suppose if I found what I loved to do I would be up and at um too another great viddie tidy
Nice work. But I personally prefer the original earlier shaped front end.
I changed the rear lights and rear panel on a mk3 escort years ago, updated to mk4 rear lights. But afterwards I wished i hadn't!
hi rob do you know if the 2012 front end will fit on the 2003 sprinter ? nice job by the way
Hi where did you find the wiring diagram for the new headlights as I’ve been looking all over thanks
The time we watch the whole of the video feels like you done the whole job in 12 minutes lol
Great content as usual ! I’m kind of missing the original time lapse music in a strange sort of way 😃
can you show how you rewired the headlight plugs, thanks
Now is it possible to put the newer 2020 front on that same van?
