[@mikeclark4416]

Hi Simon , Whilst Volvo Through & Through Now ! , I still watch videos regarding Rover ,Not having one dont hurt anymore ! ,BUT -Well impress with the reversing camera which steers the Rover reversing trailors into the bay just by moving a Camera dial Incredible

[@steelelfc1]

You’re a clever bloke Simon. Keep the videos up

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Lovely job 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏

[@L663]

Thanks again!

I recall the days when at least one Swedish manufacturer sourced all their locks from the same place as British Leyland / BMC. Chap at work locked himself out of his Volvo, asked to borrow my bunch of mini keys, job done.

Looking forward to the new products, don’t forget the older models ie my D3 😊

[@johnwillett4086]

and my D4 👍 My friend in Slovakia, who has an early Range Rover Sport, was very impressed as to how I had Powerful UK'd my D4. loved the LED rear fog and reversing lamps I bought from you as a present for him, and was very impressed with my LED puddle lights. 👍

I'd be concerned if there is CANBUS take off rather than a simple side light take off as you say Simon, just making it easier to steal the car. Deffo it needs to be waterproof even if you don't go wading/off roading. Thanks for sharing.

[@L663]

Good point you raise on the theft of vehicles via the canbus injection... we now need to shield all the parts of the car with CANbus !

Morning all! Busy doing flood irrigation

[@gordonwedman3179]

If those sides vents light up would they even be legal?

[@L663]

Good question - if they are indicators i guess they would be OK ?

[@mvirdi2333]

👍👌❤️❤️🙏🙏🇬🇧

[@robholland1937]

Awful vent design imho

[@livinagoodlife]

no idea why tf you’d want lights in your air vents. Tacky

[@L663]

Hi Rob - this seems to be the general view !

[@moobaz8675]

Side vent covers are bloody awful! I think they would look hideously naff if wired up.

[@turnbull321]

I could not have said it any better 😁

[@L663]

Probably not one we are going to pursue !

[@MrChpsk8]

It would be good to see how they look all lit up. Are they amber, or white?

[@livinagoodlife]

shite

[@rrcavityinsulationremovals77]

They just look tacky..

[@L663]

Fair comment

[@HQBProductions]

Hello Simon….no…don’t sell those as they are too poorly developed and would bring a lot of trouble and claims later on. You could design something vastly better but why change what is there? As for flashing LED’s…..a five minute wonder. No…you and Zak can do the idea far better.🙂🙂🙂🙂Richard

[@L663]

Hi Richard - the feedback to these is not great... but i thought it would be interesting for people to see them !

[@HQBProductions]

@@L663 Always useful information and worth comparison but those vents are just not thought through properly. I’m catching up on video’s…one from you and then Harry’s Garage and The Late Brake Show…who needs Strictly gone Dancing?!!!!😱😃😃😃😃😃Richad
