Modifications Part 2

Last week I fitted the rear light bar from Powerfull UK & thanks for the 492 views
https://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic59426...2b44f9f61f
Last car I modified back in the day (won't mention what day, but petrol was cheap) was my Lotus Europa Twin Cam
So it looks like I have the mods bug. Didn't really think they add to the car, but now the main reason is although its now nearly 7 years old its only done 13800miles. Probably worth 30 ish. Very rare colour of Barossa & when I ordered it I added about £9k of extras & to replace would be high £80k's or more. So decided to keep it. Well today anyway. Keep changing my mind on that.
This weeks mods are upgraded rear lights. I was speaking with a Forum member Terras14 who stays in Singapore & he pointed me in the direction of a Chinese company he had dealt with. So a few Whatsapp chats with them ordered last Tuesday, delivered yesterday, fitted today Thumbs Up
Took about 15-20mins for the pair. Used Powerfull UK's video as a yardstick, but as his lights had been off umpteen times, the hardest part was removing the cover to access the fitting screws. He said just pull it towards you, but I found its easier to put in a trim tool/screwdriver vertically in by the side of the light & gently lever it towards the centre of the car while pulling the bottom edge towards you. Rest is same as video, but I put a smear of silicone grease on the docking pins & the light just fell into place.
Modifications Part 3 will hopefully be next week when my next Chinese order arrives

I don't know about the L320 but imagine they do. All companies are very helpful. I had forgotten they are 8 hours ahead & was asking questions at around midnight in China time & was getting a reply by return

Kitchenfitter, Yes plug & play, as I said 15-20mins to fit the pair. Did what Powerful UK said in their video, wait until both are connected before trying them. Did you fit your rear lightbar?? cos these complement them Laughing
Next mod, next week. Will tell you then, then that's the modding over Range Rover Sport: Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe: 992 Porsche Carrera 4S
