    Well done on those lights. I had those same PNM LEDs fitted to my Esprit a couple of years ago and i haven’t looked back. Because i can now see forwards.

    I started to do mine this weekend just passed. I watched your video again. It helped a lot. I had to remove a lot of material just to get the lamps to sit in the pods. On my car I’ve got carbon fibre bezels to install too. I had to cut off the two lower right fixing points in each lighht and put a threaded bar close to the light itself. I ran out of time but I’ll continue soon. I really like your channel and your humour 😂

    Great videos for us doing the same. Removing the body is a chore, but the feeling of seeing it removed it very rewarding. When I removed mine I just stared at it in awe for quite few minutes.

      Thanks. I've used your videos for encouragement!

      @@Rick_D I am stuck on being in the queue with my painter. I hope to get back at it soon. I will paint some things, but a job like I want for the body requires someone more of an artist with a lot experience in multi stage painting. Patience is key for sure in projects like these plus the work itself is a lot of fun when it comes down to it.
      I look forward to watching your continued progress!

    Looking good. Do you know if you can use a wiper motor in place of the headlight motor? They can be tricky to get hold of. I’ll need to do something similar to myself, thanks for covering this :)

      I don't know if they can interchange but the pod motors are readily available from the big suppliers or off Ebay. You should be able to pickup a motor for $150 or so. Good luck!
