thanks so much for your advice mate. would love to have a go myself but really dont wanna fook it up. what sort of money would i be looking for to drive in and out job? cant see the point of stripping it myself if someone else does it as i keep getting told they need all the panels fitted so they can get gaps right etc cant see me saving much money just taking lights off. though like dorset lee said i would love to help with the strip down and prep to save money
