      If you want to add the intelligent light system headlights in the face lift conversion that will cost some serious money them headlights are expensive nearly £1000 for one in the dealers and then programming them in is another headache.I’ve been told some serious wiring is also needed too for them to work with cars that do not have the intelligent light system from factory

    Rob, my wife asks what I'm always watching and I tell her its Rob and Chris. So I showed her you both starting on the e350.
    To tell you the truth, I couldn't get my tablet and headphones off her !!!
    We both agreed that if you sold cars on a site, we'd buy one from you both, because we'd know you don't scimp on the repairs and, no bodging.
    She's now subscribed to the site. Keep up the great work.

      Thanks Terry and wife! One of the reasons for starting the channel was to show that we as a business try very hard to repair the vehicles we buy and sell to the same or better pre accident condition. It's how Rob and I have earned a living for more than 20 years and hopefully the videos distance us from others in the industry that are happy to sell sub standard repaired vehicles.

    Have fun getting the rear head rest roll protection out with the roof up.... These are huge units which when deployed interfere with the roof which has to be in the down position to remove them. Couldn't find any info on how to put them down so roof had to come off to get the units out to strip them to work out how to retract roll bars. There's actually a release lever that when the explosive squibs have been removed allows the roll bar to be pushed back into the unit and latch in the un-deployed position.
